Unique Curriculum
At Sanfort Play School Dilshad Garden, we take pride in our special curriculum. It’s built upon the UK’s Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, blending the best of traditional learning with modern technology. This blend makes learning not only effective but also a lot of fun. Our curriculum is carefully designed to engage children with activities, games, and role-plays that are truly one-of-a-kind.
Our curriculum is like a “Core Value Circle” that guides children through important stages of development. It helps them refine their senses, improve communication and language skills, develop motor skills, and enhance physical, creative, and social development. We focus on building their personalities, problem-solving abilities, reasoning skills, and numeracy skills. Additionally, we teach them practical life skills, including self-care and care for the environment, and help them understand the world around them. It’s a holistic approach to education that prepares them for a bright future.
Learning and Development Areas
Tailored for Your Child
Sensory Skills Development
At Sanfort Play School Dilshad Garden, we understand that children begin exploring their world through their senses from the moment they are born. Every new sight, taste, smell, and sound is an exciting adventure for them. That’s why we carefully plan sensory activities that encourage children to learn by touching, tasting, smelling, seeing, moving, and hearing. These activities involve various movements like squeezing, pinching, sorting, placing, and scooping, which help improve fine motor skills and enhance hand-eye coordination. This holistic learning approach not only fosters safe play but also stimulates brain development.
Communication & Language Development:
We provide a rich environment for language development. Our school boasts a well-equipped book corner and an imaginative role-play area. We regularly engage in story time, D.E.A.R (Drop Everything and Read), and news time activities to nurture a love for words and storytelling in children. Through innovative and linguistic activities, children explore new vocabulary and expand their language skills.
Early writing skills are introduced when age-appropriate, encouraging children to write alphabets, numbers, and letters through tracing activities. We guide them in recognizing both upper and lower case letters. Children also develop word-building skills through individual and group activities. Our classrooms are adorned with colorful and thematic displays that create an interactive and stimulating learning environment. This environment plays a vital role in familiarizing children with the written word, fostering early literacy awareness.
Motor-Skill Development
At Sanfort Play School Dilshad Garden, we prioritize the development of your child’s motor skills. Our specially designed activities and tools focus on enhancing their motor skills, promoting physical growth, and strengthening bones and muscles, enabling them to interact with their environment confidently. These activities are designed to fine-tune fine motor skills, involving precise movements of hands, wrists, fingers, feet, toes, lips, and tongue, as well as gross motor skills, encouraging activities like walking, running, jumping, and skipping.
Physical Development
In our nurturing environment, children engage in a wide array of activities that foster muscular development, fine-tune manipulative skills, and enhance body control while gaining awareness of their surroundings. Our schools provide children with opportunities to explore tools like pencils, paintbrushes, paper, scissors, crayons, and glue sticks. They participate in various creative activities, including drawing, painting, cutting, and sticking. We encourage them to construct models and explore a wide range of construction toys.
Both indoor and outdoor activities are thoughtfully planned to promote the development of gross and fine motor skills, emphasizing hand-eye coordination and body control. We inspire children to unleash their imaginations and physical abilities while making the most of our available resources. At Sanfort Play School Dilshad Garden, we believe that physical development is a key aspect of a child’s holistic growth journey.
Creative Development
At Sanfort Play School Dilshad Garden, we provide an enriching and inspiring atmosphere for our early learners to kindle their creativity. Through curriculum-related topics, children engage in activities like painting, drawing, multimedia, model making, and role-plays, actively participating in their school activities. They are encouraged to showcase and enhance their creative skills by taking part in dance, music, drama, and debates during school events, festivals, special assemblies, and inter-school competitions.
Personal & Social Development
Our schools prioritize the personal and social development of children. Through planned activities and guided play in their daily routine, children are taught valuable life lessons. Sanfort’s behavior policy instills a strong sense of right and wrong from the early stages. We emphasize empathy, teaching children to consider and respect the feelings of others. Children are encouraged to play together, share, and collaborate, fostering a sense of unity. They have opportunities to work both independently and in groups, promoting self-confidence, personal independence, and responsibility, such as during news time, snack distribution, and book retrieval.
Personality Development
We believe in nurturing the unique qualities of each child, fostering their inherent talents and personality traits. Personality development encompasses cognitive, emotional, motivational, and temperamental attributes that shape a child’s self-perception, their outlook on the world, and their future aspirations. Children are naturally curious and eager to learn, which is why our curriculum includes outcome-based performing arts activities. We encourage participation in role-plays, stage presentations, show-and-tell sessions, music, dance, drama, rhymes, and storytelling. These experiences help develop self-esteem and confidence, ensuring that every child at Sanfort Play School Dilshad Garden can flourish into their authentic selves.
Problem Solving, Reasoning and Numeracy
At Sanfort Play School Dilshad Garden, we foster problem-solving, reasoning, and numeracy skills in children through a diverse range of carefully designed activities. Children are encouraged to explore concepts of counting, sorting, and classifying based on shape, size, and color. They engage with environmental mathematics using child-friendly materials like playdough, constructive toys, abacus, threads, beads, and pattern-based wall and floor games. Our teachers use rich mathematical vocabulary to introduce concepts such as under, over, behind, heavy, and light. Everyday life skills are integrated into play to enhance critical thinking, and various activities refine fine motor skills while introducing number writing.
Practical Life/ Care For Self & Environment
Our goal is to nurture self-reliant individuals capable of independently mastering a wide range of life skills, making them valuable assets to society. We promote holistic well-being, encompassing personal, social, psychological, emotional, and spiritual aspects. Through a positive outlook, self-awareness, healthy habits, and mindfulness, children are empowered to engage in self-care. They learn essential life skills, including Yoga and aerobics, the use of polite language, table manners, personal hygiene, basic etiquette, and maintaining a positive attitude. Environment awareness is integral, and we organize activities such as tree plantation drives, Earth Day celebrations, campaigns to conserve water and electricity, neighborhood cleanups, and support for those in need, fostering a sense of global citizenship.
Understanding of the World
We encourage our students to explore and understand the world around them. Through drawing, model making, painting, and self-expression, children develop a deeper awareness of themselves and their surroundings. We instill moral values that inspire them to care for the environment and be responsible citizens of our nation. Regularly capturing photographs and videos allows children to reflect on their past experiences and draw valuable lessons from them, aiding in their continuous growth and learning journey.
