✂️You’ll find a different drop-in music-themed craft every week in libraries. Ask at the counter for a craft pack while stocks last. Can you make the whole band?

Have you seen our short film, Slow pedagogy – making time for children’s learning and development? 🤔 The film explores Professor Alison Clark’s research on slow pedagogy and shows how a slower approach to early childhood education can have a huge impact on young children’s lives.
