Primary Curriculum (Ages 5-7):
"Every child has a different learning style and pace. Each child is unique, not only capable of leaning but also capable of succeeding." ~ Robert John Meehan

Our Preschool program uses hands-on exploration and social interaction in a caring, safe, and stimulating environment to help the children learn about their expanding world.
Each week an interesting and engaging project theme is chosen for the kids to explore and study. The project themes are selected carefully to ensure that the children receive a rich and multi-sensory curriculum throughout the year.
What is an axolotl? Can you make a volcano in a jar? Why did an old lady eat a fly and a cow? How to draw a unicorn? What color is a chameleon?...
A great part of the learning and activities that take place in the Preschool revolve around the project theme chosen and stories, songs, Science experiments, art and crafts are linked to the theme.
Activities take place in small groups or as a whole group and are made up of arts and crafts, singing, movement, circle time, story-telling as well as plenty of indoor and outdoor (summer) play.
All of these activities are thoughtfully planned opportunities for the children to learn more about the world around them, to feed their natural curiosity, to develop skills and competencies, as well as to grow communication skills and intercultural sensitivity.
Our Preschool program is based on the British National Curriculum and designed to adapt to each individual child’s age and developmental stage and to help them grow at their own speed.

The classes are led by TESL or CELTA qualified and experienced teachers who have been educated and trained in early childhood development and who really focus on each individual child, taking into account his or her unique personality.
