Educational Philosophy
Our Reggio Emilia inspired approach to early childhood education invites children to explore, imagine, express themselves, develop friendships, engage in projects and collaborate with others. We view children as curious, natural learners who are full of potential.
We create a beautiful environment for learning
Creating a beautiful physical environment is a valuable way to support learning. Children will participate in activities and use materials that promote sensory experiences. They will learn by listening, looking, tasting and touching.
We promote self-directed play
Every child has a unique way of perceiving the world—children creatively contribute to their learning experiences. We encourage children to choose how they want to spend their time and what activities they would like to do. This approach empowers each child with self-competence and a sense of worth.
We engage children in purposeful projects
Teachers act as learning facilitators who engage children in play and exploration. Every activity and project has a purpose and is meaningful in developing one or more particular skills.
