Music
Music is an integral part of our daily routine, enhancing children’s learning experiences. Through music, they explore sounds, letters, shapes, days of the week, seasons, and holidays during circle time. It also aids in developing language and pronunciation skills. Music makes learning fun and engaging, helping children improve memory by recognizing patterns and rhythms in songs.
Age Group
Our program welcomes children ages 2 to 5 years.
Meals
Providing children with healthy meals each day not only supports their physical growth and development but also positively impacts their learning abilities. When children have nutritious meals, they are better able to concentrate and improve their listening skills. At Davie Academy, we offer balanced lunches daily to support both their well-being and their academic success.

Movement
Physical activity plays a crucial role in the development of young children. Encouraging them to dance, run, jump, and crawl supports the growth of their gross motor skills, which are essential for acquiring important life skills. Movement is integrated into the daily routine through interactive lessons and is further promoted during indoor activities, which are scheduled both in the morning and afternoon for every child.

Literacy
Early literacy is essential for developing strong reading and writing skills in young children. It forms the foundation for language development and communication abilities. Early literacy begins with print awareness, where children learn to recognize letters, words, and symbols in their environment, and phonics, which helps them understand the sounds that letters make. By fostering these skills early on, children not only build the necessary tools for reading and writing but also enhance their vocabulary, comprehension, and critical thinking. Engaging literacy activities such as storytelling, letter recognition games, and interactive reading sessions help create a lifelong love of reading and learning.
