ARTICLE OF THE WEEK

Movement is an important element of our children's day. Even during the cold weather we develop our gross motor skills, going outdoors whenever possible, or playing, running, jumping and riding scooters in our gym. We also offer our students the opportunity to strengthen their large muscles through yoga and movement through music, with Naz Aziz. We enjoy watching our children stretch, jump, twirl, dance and hop around as each new song brought smiles to the enthusiastic faces of our nursery and kindergarten students.  After this wonderful workout the students were ready to tackle any project presented upon their return to class. A wonderful time was had by all and we look forward to having Naz return for a future engagement!
