Philosophy

 

Our curriculum stands out as a unique blend of Project-Based, Play-Based, Nature-Based, Montessori, and Reggio-inspired learning approaches.

 

In high-quality early childhood programs, the emphasis on creative thinking is crucial for preparing children to thrive in a complex and ever-evolving world. Purposeful play, both structured and unstructured, plays a pivotal role in fostering children's intellectual, social, emotional, and physical development.

 

Here are key principles that underscore the significance of play in a child's learning journey:

 

- Children as Thinkers:We recognize children as natural thinkers who reflect on and explore their world.

 

- Purposeful Play: Learning occurs as children engage in purposeful play, where the process is as important as the outcome.

 

- Building Knowledge:Children gradually build knowledge, laying the foundation for continuous learning.

 

- Empowered Decision-Making: Encouraging children to make choices and practice decision-making skills.

 

Our learning environments are carefully designed to support purposeful play, featuring:

 

- Various-sized and textured blocks.

 

- Materials for dramatic and imaginative play.

 

- Manipulative and table toys.

 

- Art materials and tools for creative exploration.

 

- Sensory play materials, including sand and water.

 

- A dedicated library area.

 

- Engaging music and movement activities.

 

- Hands-on cooking experiences.

 

- Field trips, outdoor adventures, and gross motor play.

 

- A designated quiet area for children seeking solitude.

 

- Rich language and print resources.

 

- Writing tools and materials.

 

These elements collectively create an environment where children can thrive, explore, and learn at their own pace.

Curriculum

Our preschool curriculum provides developmentally-appropriate learning opportunities to encourage your child to be confident, successful, life-long learners.
