Kindergarten
Our main objective for the Kindergarten years is to help our young students develop their cognitive and motor skills. We actively encourage the development of students’ curiosity and imagination by exposing them to an exciting and wonderful world of learning and laying the foundation for life-long learning.
The curriculum is comprehensive, practical and emphasises the importance of experimenting and experiencing during the formative years. Our team of qualified and competent teachers initiate the young students to explore new areas of learning in a child-centric manner.
Students participate in a variety of activities including games, music, story sessions, arts and craft in a specially designed activity room which is well resourced and equipped with educational toys, books, and audio-visual facilities. |
