Philosophy of Education
As a parent, you're focused on preparing your child for the life ahead, for long-term learning and wellness. Our ‘whole child’ approach brings together the seven developmental areas - to encourage children to become life-long learners as a basis for a happy and healthy life.
Involves children’s abilities to convey their ideas, thoughts, and feelings through speaking and writing, and their ability to demonstrate early reading skills.
Focuses on the development of skills necessary for learning, such as self-regulation, attention, and persistence. Everything that a child needs to know to start being more independent could be included in this domain.
Supports your child’s ability to express and regulate feelings and develop relations with others. Your child is a social being! Learning to “play” (especially with others) is a skill. “Teaching” in this domain also involves making sure a child feels safe and nurtured.
Gives your child opportunities to build large- and small-muscle skills, strength, stamina, and knowledge needed to live a healthy lifestyle.
Supports the mental processes needed to think, make sense of the world, and understand knowledge across different subjects, including mathematics, science, and social studies. This includes cause-and-effect, reasoning, as well as early-math skills. Believe it or not, a baby who continually drops a spoon from his high-chair is exercising his cognitive ability. He learns that when he drops it, you will pick it up (cause-and-effect).
Helps your child creatively explore the arts, movement, drama, and music.
Teaching your child to love and obey God is the most important thing you can ever do! Recognizing the difference between right and wrong will fall in place if you are simultaneously teaching and modeling God’s love.
