My Autumn schedule

An Feirm beag nature Kindergarten
- art, nature & care

Schedule of classes and sessions for September 2010

  • Morning nature kindergarten sessions – this is a session which will run daily Monday to Thursday, from 9am to 1pm. It is aimed at the 1 to 3 age group and will incorporate a rhythm of outdoor play, arts and crafts, baking, sharing a meal and a rest time. Children may attend for one or all mornings.
  • Saturday sessions – From Saturday September 25th I will be offering Saturday sessions, from 10am to 12.30pm for 1 to 3’s and from 3pm to 5.30pm for school age children. This will be similar to the nature kindergarten or our very popular art camps, emphasising rhythms of activity and rest, with outdoor time and arts and crafts.

All sessions incorporate a shared meal so children should bring a small healthy snack.

Morning kindergarten is €20 per morning or €65 for a four day week.

All Saturday sessions are €15 per session.
