As parents, we all desire the best for our children, especially when it comes to their education. At the Nord Anglia School Jakarta (NAS), the commitment to providing a holistic early years education is a cornerstone of our philosophy. In this article, we will explore the multifaceted benefits of holistic early years education, emphasising child ownership in learning, the value of outdoor explorations, authentic self-driven learning opportunities, the power of play and the adoption of the Reggio Emilia philosophy.
Elevating your child’s learning experience through play invitations is one of the answers to the question: "How do I support my child's learning at home?" A play invitation should be inviting and attention grabbing, however, it does not have to be FIERCE (that is, Fabulous, Involving adults, Expensive, Result-driven, Creative and Elaborate). The key is to work with what you have.
