Programs & Curriculum

Pre-primary School

Preschool education (before class I – between the ages of 3-6 years) primarily focuses on physical, emotional and social development of children. Children from age 2 1/2 are exposed to the external world through the five sensorial activities: hearing, touch, sight, smell and taste. Maria Montessori is a well known method of education that is based on self-directed activity, hands-on learning and collaborative play. In Montessori classrooms, children make creative choices in their learning, while in the classroom, the highly trained teacher offer age-appropriate activities to guide the process. Children work in groups and as well as individually to discover and explore knowledge of the world and to develop their maximum potential.

Montessori classrooms are beautifully crafted environments designed to meet the needs of children in a specific age range. Dr. Maria Montessori discovered that experiential learning in this type of classroom led to a deeper understanding of language, mathematics, science, music, social interactions and much more. Most Montessori classrooms are secular in nature, although the Montessori educational method can be integrated successfully into a faith-based program.

The Pre-primary department of our school envisions promoting access to universal, equitable, joyful, inclusive and contextualized learning opportunities for ensuring holistic development of all children between 3-6 years of age. These can be ensured by involving parents and teachers in providing an emotionally supportive, culturally rooted, child oriented, stimulating learning environment. It aims at maximizing individual potential by creating strong foundations for lifelong learning through play and developmentally appropriate practices. It also intends to develop healthy attitude, good values, skills of critical thinking, collaboration, communication, creativity, technology, literacy and socio-emotional development. It ensures smooth transition from preschool to primary school, thus, enabling children for productive and satisfying life in future.
