Children are offered a well-designed and balanced curriculum which takes them to a higher level in learning and literacy, with inbuilt programmes for socio emotional, physical and aesthetic development. Practical lessons on concepts of self, nation and the world around.

LANGUAGE AND COMMUNICATION DEVELOPMENT

As language develops, children become conscious of their communication skills. They can comprehend and follow directions and express views and narrate stories. An increase in Phonological awareness is also observed.

PERSONAL, SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Interpersonal Skills

We focus on encouraging communication and emotional skills in children to build self confidence in social skills and public speaking.

Intrapersonal or Emotional Skills

Creating awareness of self-regulation and encouraging children to talk about themselves and feelings. We also mentor them towards expressing their feelings.

Self Care Activities

At this level, we encourage children to maintain personal hygiene and cultivate healthy and good habits.

PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT

KINESTHETIC AND GROSS MOTOR SKILLS At this stage children are able to run in alternate directions and stop suddenly without losing their balance. Promoting 'Gross motor' skills help develop confidence. Large movements and activities make children aware of their physical fitness and good health. Dance, naturally inculcates an interest in music and promotes rhythmic movements.

THE CONCEPT OF SELF AND SURROUNDINGS

Children approach new situations differently and exhibit strong curiosity and clarify their thoughts. Provide objects and projects to keep their fascinations growing by giving them time, space and freedom to explore using their sensorial domains. Hands on experience through activities builds awareness of one's self, family, environment and things in the environment.

FINE MOTOR SKILLS

Fine motor development is crucial as children learn to perform morecomplex movements. These are found to be motivating and fun and involve small muscle movements of the hands and fingers.For example: Activities like writing,  eating, drawing, dressing and so on that coordinate with their eyes.

COGNITIVE OR INTELLECTUAL SKILLS

At this age children start questioning, have increased attention span,visual discrimination, and understand the concept of cause and effect and simple reasoning.

NUMERACY

Introduction to numbers begins with counting, recognising and writing symbols and associating a symbol with a name. Children learn to recognise and create patterns and shapes. They acquire higherlearning to understand number positions at this  stage.

LITERACY

The process of reading and writing involve different skills. Children are aware that writing can be a way to communicate. They are motivated to write on their own. This is an age where they graduate to actual letters and words. Phonological awareness leads to an interest and desire to reading for themselves.

CREATIVE AND VISUAL ARTS

AESTHETIC SKILLS Visual arts, craft, music, sounds and dance help develop creativity and imagination in children through discovery, experience and exploration. Arts help them at various levels of emotional, physical, mental and social growth. Creativity helps to communicate feelings and provide encouragement to participate in the activity irrespective of the outcome.
