In short, the Ladybirds is an active room and it is true to say that each day is different!

At this age, children are extremely curious and eager to fully immerse themselves in everything they can!  The ladybird room offers many new experiences throughout our day; such as free play, messy play, songs, nursery rhymes and large and small group time.  Our inspiration for all activities are drawn up from the children’s own interests.

We thrive to fulfill the children’s need for physical growth with direct access to the outside area such as slides, sand pit and mud kitchen.  Here, your child is presented with many opportunities to embrace the outdoors and enhance their development through running, tumbling, climbing, crawling and exploring their surroundings to their hearts content (All the things the Ladybirds do best!).   

Throughout their time in Ladybirds, we encourage all of our children to become independent and develop important life skills such as sitting at the tables with their friends, feeding themselves and drinking from their water cups (with a little help from us!).
