Introduction
MulberryHouse aims to provide a stimulating environment that encourages young children to develop a balanced and confident foundation to a lifetime of learning.
Children progress through the goals of The Early Years through to the Foundation Stage and the Reception Year. The curriculum is organized into the following six areas:
- Personal, Social, and Emotional Development
- Communication, Language, and Literacy
- Mathematical Development
- Knowledge and Understanding of the World
- Physical Development
- Creative Development
As the children grow older, more emphasis is placed upon academics subjects, particularly literacy and numeracy.
The basic language skills of speaking, listening, reading, spelling, and writing are taught by teachers whose native language is English. Children are encouraged to develop a love of books and to use spoken language in a clear and confident way.
Topics and Activities
The school will follow topic-based work assignments. A range of creative and special activities will be rotated and will include cookery, music, movement, and drama.
Calendar events will also be celebrated such as Songkran, Chinese New Year, Christmas and other important international festivals.
Curriculum
Our curriculum is based upon the National Curriculum of England and Wales. Our work is largely topic based and has a special emphasis on the development of Literacy and Numeracy. MulberryHouse aims to provide a balanced programme that facilitates learning through play and experience. We organize our learning opportunities around the Early Learning Goals of Literacy, Numeracy, Creative Development, Knowledge and Understanding of the World, Physical Development and Personal and Social Development. We keep accurate records of your child's progress and encourage a flow of information between home and school.
Teachers
Our English Teachers are qualified and experienced native speakers with Bachelor Degrees from accredited Universities. We aim to limit our class sizes so that the children can gain a great deal of individual attention from our teachers.
Communications
Daily Report Book
An open daily report book to communicate with your child's teacher, if necessary, or for your child's teacher to communicate with you. Contains general information and letters
Parent Consultation Days
Come and talk to your child's teacher. These days are held during Term 1 and Term 3 after you receive your child's school report. Consultation times are by appointment and will be arranged by your child's classroom teacher.
School Reports
Your child's development will be reported on progress reports at the end of Term 1 and Term 3, with full school report written at the end of term 3.
Weekly Newsletter
We send a weekly newsletter home on Monday. This will inform parents of information, important dates, and upcoming events for the following week.
