Children in the infant classes love engaging in Aistear. In Aistear, they undertake many learning activities through play. They learn about languages and how and when to use them; they learn to think and to interact with others and the environment. They learn to be creative and adventurous, to develop working theories about their world, and to make decisions about themselves as learners.

Early childhood marks the beginning of children’s lifelong learning journey. For this reason, this programme is called Aistear, the Irish word for journey.
