SCHOOL PHILOSOPHY
The provides children with an opportunity to explore a learning environment
at their own pace. Students progress at their own rate as they gain self-confidence
and self-assurance, which is paramount to emotional, social, psychological
and cognitive well-being. Children at the are surrounded by an environment
that stresses cooperation, responsibility and independence.
SCHOOL DISCIPLINE
Good discipline stresses acceptable behavior. We encourage and praise
children for positive behavior. This approach maintains a child self-esteem
and helps a child know what is expected of him/her and why.

area. The play area is all grass with appropriate outdoor equipment. Our

designed specifically to meet the needs of young children.
