Our venues have been carefully chosen for proximity to parking and / or bus routes - to check out your best route why not use http://www.buses.co.uk/travel/
We book sessions termly in advance - your first session is free and is only available at the start of a new term (or half term) but pre-booking this session is ESSENTIAL, after this classes cost £6 each. The next free sessions will take place the week commencing 13th September 2010
Sessions are great fun and work for children on many levels. They start with the Tatty Bumpkin warm up song, Bendy, Giggly, Clever and Strong - developed by educational musicians; click on the link to hear a sample - then we do a specially adapted Salutation to the Sun which uses rhyme to aid memory. We then go on a magical adventure through the Giggle Tree, meeting animals, helicopters, sausage rolls - only limited by your child's imagination.
The terms follow the school terms and are made up of 2 x 6/7 week blocks, the topics covered in term one are:
- Focus/blance
- Dynamic movement
- Relaxation
- Multi-sensory world
- Feelings and people
- Music/communication
- Daily living skills
As a parent /carer you are actively encouraged to get involved in the class, as this greatly helps with creative parenting techniques, and continuity outside the class. You will be given a chart at the beginning of each term, where you and your child can collect stickers to motivate you both, and on the certificate there will be ideas to take home an practise.
The sessions are run as terms so that there is a progression, and so that you will get extra value out of the time you spend in the classes.
Sessions last for 45 minutes with the last 15 minutes being given over to a cup of tea and catch up for mums! We have timed our classes and locations to give you the flexibility to attend around school pick up times and have hand-picked our venues for locality and good access by either car or bus
Tatty Bumpkin classes are ideal for all children of all abilities. Please contact me if you or your child has special requirements. |
