Our Programme

Ages 4 months – 1 year

Blossoms

Our Baby Blossoms are the tiniest members of the Dowerglades family, cared for with gentle hands and loving hearts. This is where each child’s journey begins, surrounded by warmth, music, and sensory play that nurtures early development. In a calm and secure environment, our caregivers focus on comfort, connection, and curiosity.

Ages 1 year – 2 years

Bees

Our littlest learners are curious, active, and full of discovery. Like tiny bees, they’re busy exploring their world through touch, movement, and play.

Ages 2 years – 3 years

Fishies

These playful explorers are learning to swim through the waters of independence. They’re discovering new words, building routines, and forming their first friendships.

Ages 3 years – 4 years

Lions

This is the age of bold imagination! Our Lions are learning to express themselves, share with friends, and lead with courage, all while enjoying plenty of giggles and adventures along the way.

Ages 4 years – 5 years

Dinosaurs

Our Dinosaurs are curious adventurers who love to dig deep, ask “why,” and learn through hands-on fun. They’re building problem-solving skills and creative confidence, ready to take on new challenges.

Grade R – Ages 5 years – 6 years

Rainbows

The Rainbow Class is where everything comes together: colours, confidence, and readiness for the exciting journey ahead. We focus on school readiness, kindness, and celebrating each child’s unique sparkle before they spread their wings into Grade 1.
