DEDUNU Pre School & Day Care for the older little ones
open almost simultaneously with the Crèche at around
06H30 when the children of the early working mothers walk
in with their energetic little toddlers between the ages of
03 years to ± 5 years.
Welcomed at the door by the lady-attendant, their little
‘school-bags’ are hung in their allotted places
and the routine activities follow until the Three Pre School
teachers come in closer to 08H00. The day begins with a hearty
breakfast, specially prepared for the young growing child
– the menu varying according to the day of the week.
The formal “Pre School Day” is heralded with a
prayer for peace, happiness and prosperity for the parents
– for their families – and for the nation. |

Reading,
Writing and listening skills and other basics necessary for formal
education are taught under a methodical curriculum till lunchtime.
Learning is serious – the teachers loyal and dedicated to
their onerous but enjoyable vocation – the children continually
enlivened with attention-drawing anecdotes.
Lunch follows at midday and then the mandatory wash and nap until
about 15H00 - waking up to the refreshment of a steaming mug of
soup or milk and a snack.
The rest of the day is fun and laughter – song and dancing
- with outdoor play at the Mat-Slide or Climbing Towers from 17H00
until their parents are back from work to walk them to their little
homes for a meagre dinner and a well deserved sleep.
