Our Learning Approach

    The approach to learning in the kindergarten classroom is inspired by the Reggio Emilia Principles. Central to this approach is the image of the child as having unique strengths and potentials, and that the child has the right  to construct the knowledge through exploration and interactions with their teachers and peers. Strong emphasis is given to cooperative collaborations and interactions in project work, the role of the families, the role of the classroom environment and the role of the teacher. The Reggio principles are combined with that of the Responsive Classroom to create a classroom environment that nurtures character and caring, as well as, provides dynamic learning opportunities for all children.
