Pre-school Education

The main aim of a pre-school is to start building the basis foundation for the young children embarking on their first step in a journey of lifelong learning. The learning starts as young as 2 years old in nursery classes for 2 years. Thereafter, another 2 years in the Kindergartens classes to learn the Social Consciousness, Personal Responsibility, Independence, Life Skills and Personal Attention including basis English, Mathematics and their mother tongue.

• Social Consciousness: Children are guided to learn from one another, building their communication skills, leadership ability and spirit of cooperation.

• Personal Responsibility: A stationery store created especially for children allows them to build their financial skills and responsibility.

• Independence:  Give children the tools they need to search out solutions to the obstacles they face.

• Freedom to Learn: A structured, supervised environment lets the children choose not just what they want to learn, but how they want to learn.

• Life Skills: Playrooms provide children with opportunities to build their motor skills, concentration spans and emotional self-regulation.

• Personal Attention: Low student-teacher ratios starting at 1 teacher for every 6 children in nursery help ensure that every child enjoys individual attention.
