Balancing learning with engaging activities

Children that join us on a short term basis integrate seamlessly in our groups and enjoy all of the same activities. Many families worry that the children don’t speak English when the sudden posting happens, and rejoice when they see their children well adjusted, quickly communicating and happily learning with us. 

Our program introduces learners to our Finnish designed curriculum and 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 be confident in their abilities.

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.
