SCHEDULE
A child’s day in the centre is very full. The CPE offers a stable framework with a variety of routines that provide a sense of security essential to the child’s development. It is important that the child can envisage and anticipate the events which proceed as the day unfolds. Inside this stable framework, it is however quite interesting for the child to have the possibility of choosing activities which he is interested in, within a safe framework, while respecting the rules.
What follows is a typical schedule that allows for a better understanding of the daily routine :
