Children are unique individuals whose points of view need to be listened to and respected. Children are competent and capable individuals who can take responsibility for their learning. They have the innate desire to discover, learn, and make sense of the world. Children express their ideas, construct and demonstrate their understanding in multiple ways including artistic expression, constructive play, imaginative play, and role play. They have the right to realize and expand their potential.

We offer a learning environment that provides individuals with a sense of belonging, reinforces respect and empathy and promotes effective communication. Our children are encouraged to be active and take thoughtful risks, to recognize their own accomplishments, to take responsibility for their actions and to develop resilience and positive self-esteem. 
Teachers and children can modify spaces to provoke and extend inquiry, or to respond to the needs of the learners. We providea variety of human-made and natural resources that are readily available for the children to discover, explore, and construct meaning. Environments are intentionally created to invite exploration, provoke curiosity, engage the senses and celebrate the children’s learning journey.

We offer a transdisciplinary, concept-based curriculum that is engaging, relevant, challenging and significant for learners in the 3-6-age range. Through an inquiry- based approach to teaching and learning, children engage in authentic, meaningful learning experiences which enables them to take action. This approach also supports students to develop transdisciplinary skills, attitudes and knowledge, thus empowering them to become independent, life-long learners and resourceful, internationally-minded global citizens. We understand the importance of mother tongue in the acquisition of language.

Children socially construct their knowledge and understanding of the world by interacting with other people and withthe surrounding environment. They need opportunities to participate in collaborative learning activities involving dialogue, conflict and negotiation. A quality learning community involves effective partnerships between parents, teachers, and children. Connections with home and family are integral to learning in the early years.

Play capitalizes on children’s natural curiosity and exuberance. Through play, children test and revise their ideas to make connections between their previous and current experiences. They construct their own meaning and understanding of how the world works. Play enables children to develop a sense of autonomy and identity as well as their ability to make informed decisions. Children become increasingly skilled at being group members, initiating and working together, asking questions and exploring possible worlds through imagination. Purposeful play requires time. Our schedule includes uninterrupted blocks of time during which we provide a balance between a classroom rich in child-initiated play and a playful classroom with focused learning.

Teachers support and encourage children on their learning journey. They provoke, co-investigate and challenge ideas through the use of open-ended questions and provocations of many kinds. Teachers acknowledge that making mistakes is part of the learning process. They maintain respect for the children’s own ideas and hypotheses. 
Teachers observe children closely, listen to them carefully and give value to their theories, so that they understand the children’s thinking and make informed decisions about how to guide children in their learning. Teachers share and discuss documentation of the learning process with children and colleagues to identify the next steps in the learning process. Students are actively involved in self-assessment of their own learning. 
Teachers develop reciprocal relationships of care, respect and trust with their students in which quality learning can take place. Teachers value exchanges and interactions between children and adults as they construct, revisit, and re-construct theories and understanding. 
As part of a collegial learning community, teachers participate in collaborative, reflective practices with colleagues. Reciprocal relationships promote professional growth through dialogue, collaborative planning, joint analysis and interpretation of documentation. Teachers keep up with current research and teaching trends through internal and external professional learning and development opportunities.
