🌟 English Kids Club

A cosy, playful environment for all English levels, where children learn naturally through imagination and movement.

Each session gently weaves English learning with creativity and social-emotional growth through:

• Arts & crafts
• Songs, games & storytelling
• Social and emotional learning activities
• Free play and creative discovery

Ideal for: All children, whether they are beginners or already familiar with English. The focus is on confidence, communication, and feeling at home in the language.

🧪 Phonics Lab – Where Science Meets Sounds

Phonics Lab turns early reading skills into an exciting, hands-on adventure. Children discover how sounds and letters work together using:

• Rhythm, movement and playful sound games
• Science-style activities (for example, “volcano” vowels, magnetic letter hunts, floating word challenges)
• Sensory-rich experiments that make phonics memorable

This playful mix of literacy and “mini science lab” fun helps children:

• Build strong reading and spelling foundations
• Develop focus and self-confidence
• Stay curious and motivated to learn

Recommended for: Children who already have some familiarity with English (e.g. letter sounds, early blending or a few sight words).

🌱 Our Holistic Approach

At Nayeli Phonics Academy, we support the whole child, not just language skills. We aim to nurture:

• A lifelong love of learning and discovery
• Joy and confidence with English and reading
• Mindfulness, empathy and emotional awareness
• Independence, creativity and resilience

Learning is pressure-free, playful and sensory-friendly, so children can build strong literacy skills in a relaxed, supportive environment.
