We offer a warm, personalised experience that optimises children’s natural thirst for knowledge.
Our program introduces learners to our hands-on experiential approach to learning. Educators prepare daily playful, stimulating projects and activities designed to create learning habits, entice children to practice their thinking skills while developing in children, the curiosity, creativity, and interest in the world around them to love learning and become confident in their abilities.
Our Finnish curriculum, developed by early education experts in Finland, expands children’s knowledge about themselves, the world and the role children play in it. Our highly experienced educators introduce a new Focus Unit every week, exposing children to new knowledge, activities giving children the time to practice newly acquired knowledge, connect it to existing knowledge and experiences.
Children learn in small (1/7 educator to children ratio) multi-age groups, allowing children of different abilities to learn from others and solidify understanding, refine skills and deepen comprehension.
Our small groups allow educators to get to know the child well, support all of their beings and use experience based methods focusing on understanding and well being.
Siblings do incredibly well in our program and families appreciate that multiple places can be offered.
