Primary

Learning revolves around tangible experiences. Practical life exercises like sorting, pouring, or washing dishes are introduced. Children also use concrete materials such as movable alphabets, cubes, cylinders, and other objects to learn. They learn to work together, with each others’ best interests in mind. This broad-based program allows children to explore a range of subjects and ideas: science and nature, music and movement, sensorial experiences, cooking and nutrition, cultural awareness, history; geography, language arts, and mathematics.

Infants

In this lovely classroom setting, there is plenty of floor space for children to move and explore, as they are ready. We follow a child’s natural sleeping and waking process, as well as the child’s natural hunger patterns. We invite families to spend time with us prior to enrollment so we may learn all about your baby. We’re also here when you need us. Ask your school about flexible enrollment options to fit your family’s schedule.
