It is broadly based on Gurudev Rabindranath Tagore’s famous quotation “Don’t limit a child’s learning to your own as he was born in another time” . Every child has tremendous potential which needs to be tapped through an atmosphere that fosters creativity , communication and confidence.
Our belief :
There is has been paradigm shift in Pre-Primary Education in the recent years. Scientific research has proven that the years 0 to 6 are the most crucial period in building up the neuron cells in the brain. This means that these six years are most receptive to learning be it language, cognitive skills, fine arts or values. Children need a safe and stimulating environment to maximize the neurogenesis.
We believe that children are born curious. They love to explore and ask questions. Our early years programme builds on this natural curiosity. We have specially trained teachers who ask questions, promote inquiry and set up activities that challenge young minds to think and collaborate. Our teaching methodology develops a strong foundation for children entering into IGCSE Primary years programme.
Various studies on teaching methodology has also proven that when learning is fused with fun activities, music, art and play , children not only learn faster but remember it for life.

Our Programmes :
Nursery : ( 3 – 4 years)
By this age children are ready to be introduced to formal education. The primary purpose is to prepare children for kindergarten. Basic introduction to Numbers, Alphabets and Phonics is given. The emphasis is on Pre-reading skills and Pre-writing skills. Lot of enjoyable fine motor play is introduced to develope a good grip. Children start responding and participatating actively in class activities.
K1 : ( 4 -5 years)
By this age children become very independent. They start understanding the reading progression . They can associate phonic sound with words. They develop classical tripod grip for writing . We nurture their innate curiosity and provide a rich theme based learning environment. To ensure all round development we adopt an integrated approach which involves Music, Art, Story,Dance and Drama.
K2 : ( 5 – 6 years)
By this time children develop into confident and eager learners. We sensitize them towards environment through our “Eco-warriors” initiative. They learn to be responsible, share their ideas and become team players. They also pick up the three “Rs” ( Reading, wRiting, aRithmetic) all developed through a structured approach . They learn to differniate between safe and unsafe environment and practice healthy habits. This finishing year of Pre-Primary prepares them completely for the Cambridge Primary .
