It is this environment that encourages and enables a child to build on these stimuli so taat their imagination, creativity and problem solving abilities are developed and honed.

Competence in language reading, mathematics, science and technology is developed systematically. Teachers integrate subject knowledge into a variety of active techniques suitable to the developmental stages of the children.
