Our Education
Our education focuses on enabling your children to learn at their own pace and gain a positive image of themselves as resilient learners able to cope with uncertainty and to learn through trial and error.
We understand that children 3+ age, can group and classify things based on two concepts-shapes and colours. These children balance on one foot for 3 to 4 seconds and walk on a 4” wide beam using alternating steps. They need to talk and listen but also need activity and movement with major emphasis on large muscle activity. They enjoy dramatic play, wheel toys, climbers, puzzles and blocks. They also like opportunities to talk and listen to simple stories.
Our present curriculum is based upon the key skills and concepts to be focused on the following Areas of Learning:
- Personal, Social and Emotional Development
