A great emphasis on learning through fun and playRoutine is a very important part of a child’s fundamental education as it is an effective method that prepares children for a school environment. At Peques we have incorporated the best of a structured routine whilst at the same time placing a great emphasis on learning through fun and play. Below are some examples of the typical routines that children follow in the mornings and the afternoons. |
