  • Absolutely! We follow a thoughtfully designed Montessori-inspired curriculum that nurtures the whole child across several key areas:

    1. Practical Life Skills

    Children learn everyday tasks—pouring, spooning, dressing, washing tables—to develop coordination, independence, focus, and responsibility.

    2. Sensorial Exploration

    Hands-on materials encourage sorting, matching, and exploring textures, colors, sounds, and patterns to refine the senses—preparing them for math, language, and creative thinking.

    3. Mathematics

    We introduce core math concepts using concrete tools: counting beads, number rods, and more—so children build intuitive number sense before abstract thinking.

    4. Language & Literacy

    Through stories, songs, phonics, sandpaper letters, and early writing tools, children develop vocabulary, phonemic awareness, and emergent reading and writing skills.

    5. Cultural & Scientific Discovery

    Our curriculum includes global awareness, botany, zoology, geography, and science—exploring maps, puzzles, plant care, and animal life.

    6. Art, Music & Movement

    Creativity and physical development thrive through painting, drawing, music exploration, instruments, dance, and rhythm activities.

    7. Grace & Courtesy

    We teach social skills such as polite greetings, conflict resolution, cooperation, and respect through guided interactions and modeling. Our experienced guides facilitate an environment where children choose engaging, meaningful work, learn at their own pace, and grow intellectually and emotionally. It’s not about busywork; it’s about purposeful exploration and joyful discovery!
