Week 10 – All the colours of the rainbow, the colours of the earth and the colours of me and you!

“It is time for parents to teach young people early on that in diversity there is beauty and there is strength.” ~ Maya Angelou

As we approach the end of the term this week, we will be taking a break from our African alphabet focus and instead explore all the colours of the rainbow, the colours of the earth and the colours of me and you!

Celebrating diversity is a central theme here at the Watering Whole, both as a pivotal part of our preschool’s philosophy and our curriculum, as it weaves its way through all we do, teach and are….

We believe that it’s very important that children from a very early age are exposed to the idea of embracing difference – different cultures, different ideas, different traditions, different kinds of people, different abilities, different beliefs…. Teaching children to understand and respect difference, is such a crucial part of early childhood development and developing emotional intelligence.

Please join us in our final week of this term’s @ home curriculum with WWHP, as we explore, create, sing, dance, read about and experiment with all the wonderful colours we have been learning about this term.
