The Aistear programme is currently in operation in Kilberry N.S. for Junior and Senior Infants. Aistear is a new curriculum framework, conducted through the medium of play, which aims to provide enjoyable and challenging learning experiences for young children so that they can grow and develop as competent and confident learners. Through play, children develop their Social, Communication and Problem solving skills as they are encouraged to explore the real and imaginary worlds around them.
