Welcome to Seahorses Class!

Welcome to Seahorse Class!
We are a great class of 11 busy and enthusiastic children who are supported by
5 adults.
We like to learn in a variety of multi-sensory approaches and we build in a
variety of learning styles to help us learn and meet our individual needs.
In Seahorses we will be working on our communication skills and understanding
about following our class rules. We will also be developing our number, reading,
writing, Creative development, Understanding the World and PE skills.
We love achieving our goals and we share these throughout the day with our
peers and our teachers. In the afternoon we celebrate these achievements with
Golden time.
