Inside the Preschool Room at Seaside Explorers
The kindy room bridges the gap between early learning and school. Children practice early literacy in writing corners, explore maths through hands-on manipulatives, and dive into STEM activities that spark problem-solving. Outdoor teamwork games and leadership roles help children grow in confidence and independence.
