Playgroup for little ones
Did you know that there is a Rudolf Steiner Playgroup for the younger child in Taupō? It’s held twice a week, downstairs in the kindy home on a Monday and Wednesday afternoon, from 2.45pm - 4.45pm.
This is a lovely opportunity for Whānau, Mum’s, Dad’s, Grandparent’s and Littlies to gather in the Kindy home and share a relaxed friendly time together.
It’s a chance to meet others, learn new crafts sympathetic to the Steiner philosophy and gradually come to understand more about Rudolf Steiner education. Sessions are hosted by parents, creating a warm, friendly space for whānau to experience parenting in community.
There is a simple rhythm to the session which includes a time for singing some songs, sharing a snack of fruit and a story.
Also this is an opportunity for you and the children to meet the Kindergarten teachers, as they come to the end of their kindergarten day with the older tamariki. This is particularly valuable for your child in the transition into the Kindergarten itself if you have chosen Four Seasons Kindergarten for your tamaiti.
So, if this sounds appealing to you, please come and join us at Four Seasons Kindergarten on a Monday or Wednesday afternoon. Monday’s is for pēpi aged tamariki (it’s quieter, a gentle space for whānau to connect) and Wednesday’s is a littler higher in energy with delightful toddlers to pre-kindy aged children, exploring, running, jumping, playing alongside their whānau.
Please visit the Playgroup’s facebook page for more information.
Our kindergarten grew into the place it is now thanks to the vision and dedication of many parents who supported the Four Seasons Playgroup over many years. Our thanks and gratitude to those who shared in the vision for a Steiner approach to educating children in Taupō.
