Curriculum
As the cornerstone for lifelong learning, we prioritise early childhood education. Our programmes are designed to assist children become self-assured, confident, and contributing members of society while preparing them for their transition to school and to the larger community.
​
Children acquire concepts and skills via play and experiences that are focused on their interests thanks to the collaboration of educators, families, and children in the development of our programme. A balance between is maintained between learning that is prompted by the child and learning that is guided by the educator.
