Boobook Nook Playgroup

Boobook Nook Playgroup is based on the principles of Steiner Early Childhood Education. The early years are a time of learning actively through imitation and creative imaginative experiences. Parents are encouraged and supported to embrace a gentle, natural approach to childhood. The playgroup nurtures a creative environment for parents and children to enjoy.
Natural play materials and outdoor play in the gardens develop the child’s imagination. Their imagination and sense of wonder is fostered, through stories, songs, creative play, interaction with nature and involvement in everyday activity. Children explore their environment, learning important sharing and cooperation skills to enhance their social and emotional well-being, foster positive self esteem and develop gross and fine motor skills. Foundational pre-literacy and numeracy skills are grounded in the early years through rich oral and practical learning experiences.
