Bumblebee Room
2 years 8 months to Primary School age
ECCE Room
The Bumblebee Room uses a play-based approach, guided by Aistear, the national
curriculum. This holistic approach focuses on the child as a whole and allows each child the time and freedom to explore and make their own choices. Our early years educators provide opportunities for the children to achieve this by providing resources, planning activities based on the children’s interests and documenting their learning experiences.
Learning through play
The room is organised into a variety of interest areas, such as the home corner, tabletop, messy play, cosy corner, construction, small world and arts and crafts. A mix of adult-led and child-initiated activities takes place both indoors and outdoors. Children are encouraged to explore, ask questions, and think creatively to solve problems. Through play, they develop their social, emotional, physical, language, and cognitive abilities, whilst also nurturing independence and confidence.
