Children learn best when they have caring adults to guide them provide challenges and support them as both individuals and as important members of a group. We recognize that each child is unique and has his or her own style of learning. Our curriculum supports this by being child centered with hands on exploration by encouraging them to express their individuality and helping them reach the heights of their capabilities.
