Life at Kindergarten

Play-based learning, with a Montessori Lab

Every child has a unique personality and develops at a different pace. The programme is built around play, and a Montessori Lab gives children a room of Montessori materials for sensorial and practical-life work.

In 2023, the kindergarten was expanded: bigger, brighter classrooms with digital boards, a library of its own, and play equipment chosen to develop both gross and fine motor skills.

GROWTH & DEVELOPMENT

How children are assessed

Continuously, formally and informally, rather than through tests.

“In the kindergarten section, every child is assessed continuously in both formal and informal ways.”

Worksheets are completed and assessed periodically, and the records build a picture of which skills and concepts a child has actually grasped. Parents are told regularly how their child is getting on — the point being to build the child’s confidence rather than to rank them.
