In the morning session, many
activities are centred around a general theme such as Night-time, Our
Senses, or Baby Animals, for a period of up to a fortnight. Children are
encouraged to bring in items for display on a table, which will then be
discussed at daily chat time.
Activities shown are typical of those at ACE but not all days are alike;
the structure may alter to accommodate additional activities – such
as school outings or trips to a local school gym.
