BRIGHT YOUNG THINGS

ALPHABET Playhouse

What parents say Rachael and Kevin Gibbens, British and South African; Georgia and Hugo (3.5)

We enrolled our twins into Alphabet Playhouse (the Dublin Road campus) when they were 18 months old. Of all the schools we visited, we chose this one not only because of the proximity to home, but also because everyone looked really friendly and warm. The centre is spacious, and I love that the children have a lot of hands-on playtime, including sand play, water play and other traditional activities that reminded me of my own childhood. They also have fun lessons like Music, Dance, and Sportsball. I’m also very happy with the multicultural environment, where my children get to interact with their classmates of many different nationalities. Georgia and Hugo absolutely love their teachers, their classmates, and Sportsball activities the allow them to engage in friendly games of rugby, football and even hockey. As parents, we are proud to see our children’s growth at the school. A favourite highlight of family involvement has to be the annual concert. It was so adorable to see our children and their classmates on the stage, all dressed up and doing little performances. Overall, it has been two years since Georgia and Hugo first joined and we are reminded every time we see their happy faces that we made the right choice by enrolling them in Alphabet Playhouse.
