Our Programs

Journey to Independence

18 - 36 months

The aim of our toddler program is to support the development of the whole child from 18 months to 36 months including the physical, intellectual, emotional and social needs of each toddler by providing an ordered, nurturing environment in which the very young child can grow and learn.

A Love for Learning

3 - 6 years

The Primary program is truly a gift to your child. Designed for children between the ages of 3 to 6 years, it is an opportunity to nurture his individual development within the context of a group setting. The result? Self-confidence, joy and a lifelong love-for-learning.
