In our first term, the children have settled into a gentle, calm rhythm of work. The classroom is often very quiet and focused, some children doing activities, others working with me or Phakama, and a few observing with curiosity. Alongside this, there are always those who enjoy paging through books with a friend on the book bed, or playing imaginatively in the fantasy corner. It’s truly wonderful to see how the uninterrupted work cycle allows independence, responsibility, and joyful connections.
