Our Programs



Infant (6 weeks to 12 months)

Extended Day : 7:00 AM to 6:30 PM

The Infant program provides quality care for infants aged 6 weeks to 12 months. A nurturing environment, one which encourages self-confidence, independence, and discovery is an ideal space for the child to start understanding the world around them.Through carefully designed activities and creative utilization of the classroom space, our experienced teachers will develop the child's gross motor skills. Communication with the child will be meaningful, as they discover language and form connections between language, tone, signs and their own emotions. We will observe the child's natural cycle of sleeping, feeding, and biological functions, and by attending to their daily needs with care and affection, we foster a sense of trust and security within the child. Music, movement and language will be part of the child's daily routine, as they begin their journey into our great big world.



Toddler (1 year to 2 years)

Full Day - 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM
Extended Day - 7:00 AM to 6:30 PM

The Toddler program is tailored to meet the developmental needs of children aged 1 year to 2 years. As the child discovers their power to make things happen, our focus will continue to be on improving the cognitive, gross motor and language skills. Toddlerhood is a time of great cognitive, emotional and social growth, and our environment is designed to nurture the child's problem-solving ability, curiosity, independence and social interaction skills.For example, the child will be encouraged to grow their independence by learning how to use a spoon and fork, drink from a cup, put materials back in their place and much more. Complex objects are introduced and explored as the child is intrigued and developing their intelligence. Children will engage in activities such as pouring, transferring, investigating, stacking and more. The child is exposed to speech and expression as we read aloud meaningful books with poetry, stories, beautiful illustrations and sing to them in this fun new stage.



Pre-Primary (2 years to 3 years)

Full Day - 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM
Extended Day - 7:00 AM to 6:30 PM
Half Day - 8.30 AM to 12.30 PM

The Pre-Primary program is designed to meet the needs, natural curiosity, and interests of children aged 2 years to 3 years. As the child continues to learn new skills, our experienced teachers will gently guide them to enhance their cognitive, language, gross-motor, hand-eye coordination, grace & courtesy and concentration skills. In addition, a well rounded curriculum will introduce the children to the world of mathematics, science, art, culture and history. Through carefully designed classrooms, practical life materials of the right size are introduced to the child and are used to develop fundamental skills that lay the foundation for future learning. Dish and cloth washing, fruit cutting, sweeping, mixing, watering and caring for plants are some of the real world activities the child will learn, while gaining confidence and developing their self-esteem. This stage of development will see the child go from using two-word phrases to full sentences. As the child learns to express themselves and communicate their growing needs, our teachers will have meaningful conversations with the child using rich, varied vocabulary and grammar. Grace and courtesy will be inculcated to help the child socialize, and build relationships with their peers. As the child shows signs of readiness, they will be taught toilet independence, and provided with access to bathrooms that are just the right size.



Primary (3 years to 6 years)

Full Day - 8:30 AM to 3:00 PM
Extended Day - 7:00 AM to 6:30 PM
Half Day - 8.30 AM to 12.30 PM

The Primary program is a multi-aged program for children aged 3 years to 6 years. This is a unique environment where the younger children learn by emulating the behavior of the older children, and the older children develop self-confidence and leadership skills through guiding and helping the younger children and at the same time reinforcing their own learnings . These two-way positive interactions foster a sense of friendship, and help children build the ability to create long lasting relationships. Continued focus and one-on-one lessons in the areas of mathematics, science, art, culture, language, sports and music will lay a strong foundation for the years to come. Children are encouraged to choose their lessons according to their needs and sensibilities and are given the freedom to explore their interests. Our caring teachers will make learning effortless, fun and rewarding through high quality learning materials and ensure that the child's growth is limitless.
