Micropod Playgroups - Gigiri Pod 2023

Micropods are small groups of children who come together to play and learn. Micropod families agree to limit their exposure to people outside of their pod. Pods normally consist of 3 - 6 children ​and are becoming a popular solution to learning through the coronavirus pandemic.

We have the following Micropod curricula: 

1. Baby (Ages 0 - 1Y)

2. Toddler (Ages 1Y - 3Y)

3. PreSchool (Ages 3Y - 5Y)

4. Kindergarten (Ages 4Y - 5Y)

Our curricula content includes Science & Nature Play, Art & Messy Play, Early Numeracy & Literacy, Sports, Movement & Music. It is designed to stimulate all areas of children's development, with a focus on gross & fine motor skills, language development, cognitive development, and social-emotional development.

Strong Start teachers are qualified teachers in early childhood education and follow play-based pedagogy. Teachers are trained in observing, tracking, and reporting children's developmental milestones so that parents and caregivers remain informed on children's progress. Teachers also support nannies in learning and understanding Strong Start's play approach so that play at home can continue throughout!

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Strong Start is taking measures to ensure the safety and well-being of children, caregivers and teachers. To this end, teachers will follow strong hygiene protocols including:

• Wearing facemasks
• Employing structured handwashing times
• Implementing social distancing protocols
• Conducting temperature checks on all playgroup participants

Participating caregivers or parents will be required to wear a facemask and follow social distancing and hygiene protocols.
