Learning through Play

Our "big friends" learned about the benefits of "play" and are able to apply this knowledge to working with our "little friends".
Our HPC 3O0 class said the following about their participation through the "Learning through Play" workshop:


"I liked that we were able to make connections between the topics discussed in class and this session to the behaviour that we see in playschool."

"I learned different ways of interacting with children through play. Also that play doesn't only mean games and that it's interacting, imagination and learning skills."


"I really enjoyed this workshop because it was very interactive. I also enjoyed exploring the toys and talking about them."
