Long-term Planning

Siolta's standards and the Aistear National Curriculum Framework guides our practice, through positive consultation with parents, family and the community, we aim to promote each child's sense of identity and well-being. Through our knowledge and understanding of how children learn and develop, we facilitate each child to share and communicate their ideas, whilst they explore and problem solve through meaningful play experiences.

Using the 4 themes of Aistear we encourage each child to be confident and competent learners:

1. Exploring & Thinking: Supporting children to make sense of things, places and the people in their world.

2. Communication: Supporting children to share their experiences, thoughts, ideas and feelings with others.

3. Well-being. Supporting children to be confident, happy and healthy individuals

4. Identity and Belonging: Supporting children to develop a positive sense of identity where each child feels valued and respected as part of a family and community.
