| The Rooster Class is our transition classroom for the three year-old child who has graduated from the Chicky class. They are potty trained, know how to express themselves, display grace and courtesy, and show improved sharing, caring and listening skills.
Roosters follow the same schedule and curriculum as the older Panda students but at a slower, more individualized pace. This helps the younger three year-old students to build their confidence before moving on to the Panda Class. |
