We have designed an age-appropriate spiral curriculum that builds with new knowledge of previously taught areas, adds advanced applications and increases complexity as it progresses from one programme to the other. Our Programmes consist of:
Programmes | Age Criteria ( approx.) |
Play Group | 1.6-3 years |
Nursery | 3 -4 years |
Junior Kindergarten | 4-5 years |
Senior Kindergarten | 5-6 years |
All our programmes are built on eight core pillars of early childhood development:
Gross Motor Skills
We enable children to use big muscle groups with indoor activities like balance beams, trampolines, rope climbing, fun workout exercises; outdoor playground activities like swings, slides, seesaws, and physical sports like basketball, football as well as soft gym activities.
Fine Motor Skills
We enhance the coordination of small muscles of hands and fingers with eyes through beads, blocks, play-dough, painting, crafts, threading, lacing, finger plays, gardening, etc. These skills develop into complex dexterity required in playing musical instruments, performing surgery, designing, weaving, and tasks involving finger deftness.
Linguistic Abilities
We develop linguistic abilities to listen, speak, read and write with alphabet recognition, words play, writing games, storytelling, reading sessions, riddles, rhymes, homonyms, songs, tongue-twisters, picture talks, puppets, and flashcards. We ensure we talk to the children and encourage them to speak to us rather than communicate with gestures. Starting from simple sentences and using basic vocabulary, our students progress to using higher-level vocabulary and expressing themselves fluently and clearly.
Cognitive Skills
We inculcate basic thinking, cause-and-effect learning, problem-solving and critical thinking skills through hands-on activities like recognising patterns, solving puzzles, counting, early math skills, and conducting simple science experiments. These cognitive skills lay the foundation for our young learners to be young scientists, mathematicians, or entrepreneurs of the future.
Social/Emotional Skills
We facilitate the development of emotional intelligence, social effectiveness, interpersonal skills, and leadership skills within children by involving them in role plays, dramatization, stories, organized games, music, movement, dance, rhymes, and team-building activities which help them socialize, engage and exchange with their peers.
Creativity and Imagination
We facilitate confidence, independence, and creative thinking within children by encouraging original expressions in all forms like drawing, painting, crafts, block building, cooking, role plays on stage and in the dollhouse, and storytelling sessions.
Self-Help/Adaptive Skills
We encourage children to take care of their toys, school materials and their properties, express their needs, feed themselves, and be fully toilet trained. We train them to keep their stuff back in place. These activities help children to rely on themselves, gain emotional independence and learn self-help skills.
Morals/Values
We inculcate virtues, values, ethics, and a code of conduct which navigate them through right and wrong. We inculcate inclusiveness, universal brotherhood, and a no-discriminatory attitude which builds acceptability, love, and respect for different cultures and opinions. (End)
