WHAT CHILDREN LEARN AT FOTUMALAMA
Our Programme Supports the Whole Child

Infants (6 months – 1 yr)
We provide a calm, loving space where infants feel secure and supported. Through gentle routines, warm relationships, and opportunities to explore safely, children begin to develop confidence and awareness of the world around them. Our faiaoga respond to each child’s cues with care and respect.

Toddlers (2 yrs – 3 yrs)
Toddlers are encouraged to explore their growing independence while still receiving nurturing guidance. Our teaching team supports language development, social confidence, problem-solving skills, and early self-help abilities through play, movement, and meaningful interactions.

Toddlers (2 yrs – 3 yrs)
Preschool children are supported as they prepare for their transition to school. Learning experiences focus on independence, social competence, early literacy and numeracy foundations, creativity, and cultural identity. Our curriculum is engaging and purposeful, helping each child grow intellectually, socially, spiritually, physically, and emotionally.
