The main objective of the school is to provide appropriate learning opportunities to this young minds, a child's education in the first six years has a major influence on subsequent academic success, personal development and life chances.

Our school curriculum offers learning opportunities to encourage and develop a child's:

Approach

We aim to achieve this development by using a child centered teaching approach. This approach is based on the fact that young children learn through play and experimentation. Young children are naturally curios and active and they learn best when they manipulate real objects and experience things. Child centered education involves the teacher identifying the child's development stage and providing experiences which fit that level.
This development is achieved through a range of subjects like:

1. English Language
2. Mathematics
3. Health and Nutrition
4. Computers
5. Physical Development
6. Music
7. Creative Art and Crafts
8. Science
9. Swimming
10. Indian Dancing
11. Twe - Kondo
12. Education Trips
13. Free - Play or Drama

The diversity of our curriculum and our approach provides plenty of opportunities for our children to be active, to play and explore, to ask questions, to talk and discuss with each other and the teacher, to make mistakes and then learn from them, and to enjoy their early experiences school.

In every subject area, children are provided with experiences using common theme projects that demonstrate in a practical way, the concepts they need to acquire.

For each year group there is an appropriate school curriculum. Our school is divided into four year groups:

1. Playgroup
2. Nursery
3. Kindergarten
4. Pre-Primary

The teachers work as a team to plan the teaching of the curriculum through series of relevant themes. This ensures that each child enjoys the learning experiences.

 

Our Staff

All our teachers and assistant teachers are qualified in at least one internationally accepted method of early child Education.

 

Child's Assessment

We provide two class reports every term. These reports will provide parents with feedback on the progress that their child is making and identify areas where greater parental involvement may be necessary. Parents are encouraged to discuss these reports with the relevant class teachers. Parents are excepted to attend the mid - term Open Day and the End of term open day.

 

Swimming

Swimming is an important activity. We have a fully qualified swimming instructor to help the children gain water confidence and acquire swimming skills.
Besides swimming we have Tai - Kwondo, where children are trained for these specific skills by a skilled personal and are graduated every year by Tai-Kwondo association of Kenya.
