How learning happens here

Green leaf design

Expression

Through body language, words, and use of materials, children develop capacity for complex communication. Language-rich environments support growing communication skills which are foundational for literacy.

Well-being & Belonging

A sense of mental health, wellness and belonging is developed through activities that foster self care, self regulation while building problem solving skills and connecting with others.

A deep sense of focus is developed through a freedom of exploration to follow the natural curiosities and exuberance. Through involvement of inquiry and play they develop creativity and innovation.
