Our Rooms

Treetops Preschool has two main rooms in which the lessons are held. These are the Duck Room and the Frog Room. Music and Montessori lessons take place in the Duck Room, and Fox Tales and Pigeon Steps classes take place in the Frog Room.

These two rooms have very different equipment, so during the Montessori classes the children change rooms as a group, half way through each session, so they can get the best out of each room.

The Duck Room

The Duck Room houses all the Montessori equipment and lots of games and puzzles, which are mainly for individual use or for working in pairs. This room has been designed to encourage independence, deeper concentration skills, and to develop confidence and self esteem.

The Frog Room

The Frog Room has more traditional group games and toys, such as Duplo, the railway track, shop, and the dressing-up box. This room encourages the children to become part of a larger group and to interact and build social skills.

The Frog Room is also where all the art and craft activities take place. These include: painting, sewing, printing, making models from a variety of materials, growing plants and vegetables, doing simple experiments and constructing collages and displays on the walls.

The rooms were named after the specially made chairs in each one!
