The moment we’ve all been waiting for is finally here! After months of hard work, our graduates are ready to shine.
We celebrated our 33rd Graduation Concert and it was a delightful success! The event was bursting with colour and joy. The children performed their dances with energy and confidence, truly bringing the theme, “Rhythm of the Rainforest”
Our teachers created a rich environment to nourish the children’s minds, just like a buffet of choices for them to explore. Here are some fun highlights from the theme:
Deer: Graceful movement.
Elephant: A majestic presence.
Snake: Cautious and aware of its surroundings.
Leopard: Fiercely independent and confident, always standing up for what’s right.
Squirrel: Quick movement and witty.
Monkey: Intelligent and a great problem-solver.
Butterfly: A symbol of beauty and grace.
Hornbill: A social creature & work well with others.
It was a day to remember, celebrating our amazing children and the vibrant community we’ve built together!
A huge thank you to all the parents for your amazing support in helping them grow. And to our graduates, we hope today is a fun celebration of all your achievements and a memory you’ll cherish for years to come. Enjoy your special day!
Within education, music and movement activities use a range of sensory modalities such as vision, hearing, and movement to support learning in a fun and engaging way. Children learn through play, imitation, and exploration – and music and movement combine these using various senses.
Music ignites all areas of child development and skills for school readiness, including intellectual, social-emotional, motor, language, and overall literacy.
It helps the body and the mind work together. Exposing children to music during early development helps them learn the sounds and meanings of words.
Dancing to music helps children build motor skills while allowing them to practice self-expression. For children and adults, music helps strengthen memory skills.
The xylophone is a classic instrument that has been around for at least 1600 years, and despite being so old, it’s still an excellent first instrument for a child to start with.
Studies in neuroscience show that music can enhance brain function in children. Musical activities (such as playing an instrument, singing, or listening to music) stimulate the brain. This brain workout leads to improved brain structure with the formation of new neural connections.
Playing musical instruments, like any skill, takes time to master. Children will enjoy the sense of achievement from learning through play as they can gradually repeat familiar tunes or patterns or maintain a steady rhythm.
Children love engaging with music and movement in early childhood education. It helps them express their feelings and emotions, learn to work in groups and develop their self-confidence and imagination. They help children develop cognitive growth, problem-solving, self-expression, and social development skills.
