Learning is a lifelong journey, built step by step, day by day. The first 50 days of play school are transformative. As educators and parents, we witness remarkable growth in our little ones during this critical period. At CHIREC International School, we believe that learning is a celebration and we carefully craft experiences that go beyond traditional classroom learning, creating memorable moments that shape young minds and build essential life skills.
When searching for a good play school in Hyderabad, parents often wonder what makes one institution stand out from another. The answer lies not just in curriculum, but in how learning comes alive through real-world experiences. Our journey through the first 50 days has reinforced our belief that meaningful education happens when children engage with their environment actively and joyfully.
Exploring Our City: The Bus Tour Adventure
One of our most exciting initiatives was the city bus tour, where our pre-schoolers embarked on a guided exploration of Hyderabad. This carefully designed learning experience helped children understand their community, recognise landmarks, and develop spatial awareness. Through this activity, children learned about public transportation, traffic rules, and the importance of being observant citizens while practicing social interaction and following group instructions.
Building Safety Awareness: Stranger Danger and the Five Finger Safety Circle
Safety education is paramount in any reputable school, and we’ve made it engaging and age-appropriate. Our safety sessions introduced the Five Finger Safety Circle – a simple yet effective tool that helps children remember important safety practices.
Each finger represents a different safety concept: trusted adults, safe places, safe touches, speaking up, and seeking help. This hands-on approach makes abstract safety concepts tangible for young minds. Children learned to identify trusted adults, understand safe versus unsafe situations, and gained confidence in speaking up when something doesn’t feel right. These sessions empowered children with knowledge while improving their ability to articulate feelings and make better safety decisions.
Connecting with Nature: Rainwater Harvest Park Field Trip
Environmental consciousness begins early, and our field trip to the Rainwater Harvest Park opened children’s eyes to water conservation and sustainable living. This hands-on experience allowed them to see how rainwater collection works, understand the water cycle, and appreciate preserving natural resources. Children engaged in simple experiments and observed plants that thrive with collected rainwater, perfectly exemplifying how pre-primary schools in Hyderabad can integrate environmental education into early learning experiences.
Celebrating Nature: Van Mahotsav
Our Van Mahotsav celebration brought the entire school community together in honouring trees and forests. Children participated in sapling plantation activities, learned about different types of trees, and understood the vital role forests play in our ecosystem. During the event, children created artwork using natural materials, sang songs about trees, and shared stories about forest animals. The joy and enthusiasm they displayed while planting their own saplings was a testament to their growing connection with nature and developing a sense of environmental responsibility.
These 50 days have reinforced our understanding that quality early childhood education extends far beyond academic readiness. Children have developed critical thinking skills, environmental consciousness, social awareness, and personal safety knowledge. They’ve learned to work in teams, express themselves confidently, and approach new experiences with curiosity rather than fear.
When young children are given meaningful, hands-on experiences that connect learning to real life, they develop into confident, capable, and conscientious individuals ready to take on future challenges. At CHIREC International School, we remain committed to providing experiences that matter – because these early years truly do shape the foundation for lifelong learning and success.
As we look back on these 50 days, we also look ahead with excitement—towards many milestones that will continue to make this journey extraordinary.
