Program Highlights
¤ýOur Program is mainly inspired and influenced by Project Approach and Reggio Emilia.
The children investigate worthwhile projects based on the school curriculum of each grade or their emergent curiosities and interests.
 
¤ýOur programs are designed to extend the school learning experience.
We have been developing small group and individualized tutoring programs which are available in all subjects.
 
¤ýFree time with rest, gym time and playground activities are another aspect of our program.

We consider children’s daily physical & emotional needs and allow flexibility in the routine to meet the needs of individual children as they are apt to be tired after a full day at school.

 
¤ýWe regularly update and develop our programs to meet the needs of children and their families.
