It’s the final month of our wonderful After Scho It’s the final month of our wonderful After School Enrichment term!

Thank you to all the children, families, and instructors who have joined us for a season filled with creativity, exploration, and learning. 
From art and STEAM to cooking, music, movement, and storytelling, it has been a joy to watch children discover new interests and build new skills. @lab.artstudio @pedalheads 

We’ll be taking a summer break, but our enrichment programs will return this September with exciting opportunities for Toddlers and Primary children.

A wonderful field trip to Richmond Nature Park! @r A wonderful field trip to Richmond Nature Park! @richmondnaturepark 

Our Toddlers and their parents spent the day exploring nature together, observing wildlife, making discoveries along the trails, and learning more about the world around them. At the Nature House, the children enjoyed seeing reptiles and insects up close, sparking lots of curiosity and excitement. They also had a great time walking the trails and taking in the sights and sounds of nature.

Thank you to all the families who joined us for this special field trip. These shared experiences help strengthen connections, inspire a love for nature, and create lasting memories.

Our Toddlers had so much fun exploring Richmond Na Our Toddlers had so much fun exploring Richmond Nature Park with their parents! 

Along the trails, we spotted frogs, learned about insects that protect themselves with foam, and discovered that a “nature corn cob” is actually a pine cone that animals have nibbled away. The children were curious about everything they saw and loved learning about the plants and animals living in the park.

It was a wonderful day filled with exploring, learning, running around, and enjoying nature together. 

Thank you @richmondnaturepark for the tour!

A little look into our May inquiries across the cl A little look into our May inquiries across the classrooms at Nido.

In Primary, the children explored responsibility, problem solving, and construction through everyday moments. After accidentally spilling oats, they independently gathered brooms and dustpans to clean the space together. During block play, they discovered that balance and thoughtful planning helped keep their towers standing strong.

In Pre-Primary, children continued building language and creativity through reading, sensory exploration, and art. Using bugs as painting tools and tearing apart painted paper they created themselves invited curiosity, texture exploration, and creative expression.

In Toddlers, the children explored spring, weather, and movement through open ended materials. Magnetic tiles, figurines, and vehicles encouraged creating and investigating, while painting bright pink flowers helped represent the changing season around them.

Through these small moments, each classroom continued to follow the children’s natural curiosity and inquiry in meaningful ways.

After the long weekend, we noticed our basil and rosemary sprouts had become very dry. Throughout the week, the children continued watering and observing them closely, wondering if they might recover. Together, we reflected on what plants need to grow and the important role water plays in keeping them healthy.

Although the basil and rosemary were unable to recover, this experience became a meaningful opportunity for observation, reflection, and learning through real experience.

Luckily, our cucumber plants outside are still growing strong 🥒✨

Moments like these help children build critical thinking, observation skills, and an understanding of cause and effect while discovering that even unexpected outcomes can become valuable learning opportunities.
