The Sunshine Co-op
Nursery school holds classes
every morning from 9 to
11:30 in the Exeter United
Church. The Nursery offers
a t*o-day and a three-day
program.
A co-operative nursery
school functions by the
participation of all the
parents of the children
enrolled. The parents elect
an executive, which
.organizes and operates the
group.
Each parent takes a turn
assisting the teacher at the
nursery school on a rotating
basis. This creates a special
bond between parent and
child during these formative
years of a child's upbringing.
The nursery school is set
up so the children are
allowed to experience dif-
ferent activities such as
housekeeping, Table toys,
dress-up, climber, blocks,
work bench, crafts, painting
and library books.
Each activity centre
allows a child to explore his
own abilities, share with
others and learn to work and
play with his Deers.
The program of the nur-
sery is run on different
themes each week. Since
September the themes have
been about families, where
we live, Indians, fall, fire,
traffic safety.
In connection with safety
themes, the children were
visited by fire trucks and a
policeman, who gave the
children a ride in his police
car. These themes are
usually discussed at circle
time, when the children also
talk about the weather, sing
songs, fingerplays and listen
to stories.
Recently the children
enjoyed a Halloween party.
Each child was dressed for
the occasion and there were
jack-o-lanterns, cartoons,
games songs and special
treats.
The success of this type of
nursery school depends
entirely on the parents and
most parents will agree it's a
very rewarding experience,
Sunshine Kids Inc` still has
some openings available.
