Kindergarten 1& 2

Foundational life skills are important for children of these ages, as they prepare for higher levels of school life in future.

We believe that quality play-based learning experiences allow children to explore, negotiate and be a risk taker, in a safe environment. These self-help skills will be important for the child to explore the world with confidence, curiosity, independence and with a great desire to learn.

Our Growth Mindset curriculum journey encourages the Kindergarten children to regulate their behavior, discover their own interests and learn in innovative ways. They will also have self-ownership, feel connected with their peers, and become inspired with the many opportunities discovered in our play-based activities.

Our school readiness programme is specially designed for our Kindergarten children to equip them with relevant skills and habits to excel in elementary school and beyond. Our Language & Literacy curriculum builds their confidence to read and write and also develops proficiency in letter recognition and phonics.

Factoring in individual developmental needs and forming a balance between routines and flexibility are key design principles included when creating our award-winning preschool curriculum, engineered to create an amazing growth journey for each child every day!
