Curriculum Structure
Our curriculum emphasizes play-based learning, incorporating hands-on activities that promote cognitive, social, and emotional growth. We integrate STEM with weekly math and science lessons, foster early literacy through daily reading and phonics sessions, and encourage creativity with regular arts, music, and dramatic play activities.

Preparation for Kindergarten
To prepare children for kindergarten, we focus on building foundational skills that incl letter recognition, counting, and fine motor coordination. Social skills such as cooperation, communication, and emotional regulation are also key, while a structured daily routine mirrors a kindergarten classroom. Parents receive regular updates to stay informed about their child’s progress and readiness.
