Learning
Play with a purpose behind it
We follow a play-based early childhood development approach. Teachers watch, write short notes on each child, and talk to you about progress twice a year.
Language and early literacy
Talking, listening, singing, stories and rhymes every day. Pre-schoolers move on to letter sounds, name writing and holding a pencil correctly. Grade R begins real reading and writing.
Numbers and thinking
Counting real things, sorting, patterns, puzzles, building and water play. By Grade R this becomes number recognition, simple addition and problem solving.
Body and movement
Climbing, balancing, running and ball skills outdoors. Indoors: cutting, threading, playdough, drawing — the small-muscle work that makes writing possible later.
Feelings and getting along
Naming feelings, waiting a turn, asking instead of grabbing, and fixing things after a fight. This is taught as deliberately as counting.
What sets us apart
Age-appropriate educational technology, with computer lessons from Grade RR. Baking and gardening as regular activities, not treats. Themed learning experiences and practical, hands-on work running through every group.
