Worker Bees Room
3-4 Year Olds
Putting our Worker Bees to work.
Play is a child’s work, and this is just what our Worker Bees room is designed to reflect. Through pre-kindergarten learning experiences, our 3-4 year olds enjoy experiential play that connects to their individual interests and developmental stage. Our Worker Bees room provides a pre-kindy environment at our childcare centres across Perth, from north to south.
At pre-kindy age, your child can communicate more effectively. This is why building relationships and social skills is an important part of the Work Bees room. Children are also more independent, with their own unique mix of desires, opinions, hobbies, likes, and dislikes. To align with this, Ascolta educators take every day as it comes and decide how best to teach your child on each day.
Nurturing Personal Expression
Providing pre-kindy environments across Perth where children shape their own learning.
We continue to nurture your child’s sense-of-self and independence when they join the Worker Bees room. At the same time, we encourage them to build healthy relationships through positive social skills. The Worker Bees room provides opportunities for children to be part of whole group learning, smaller groups, partner-play, and individual learning in a pre-kindy environment. We love that children at this age are opinionated about where and what they would like to learn, so we have many setups around the room for your child to choose from.
Art
Children enjoy self-expression through cutting and gluing, painting and drawing on a canvas or paper, and scribbling on our whiteboard. If we don’t have what your child is searching for, we go on an adventure to the other classes and borrow their materials.
Imagination
Building and bashing towers, constructing with blocks, playing with cars, as well as real-life play scenarios (like dressing dolls and going shopping) allow children to use their imaginations alone or with others.
Fine Motor Skills
We intentionally choose activities that build fine motor skills and hand-eye co-ordination as children begin to use writing tools for the first time. This includes playdough, cork board, and games like Tap, Tap, Nail.
It’s even better in person.
