Early Years

Our preschool is a place where childhood is honored as a time of wonder, exploration, and connection. Guided by an inquiry-based approach inspired by Reggio Emilia, we nurture each child's natural curiosity, playful spirit, and deep capacity for relationship.

Children spend generous time outdoors, moving freely through changing landscapes and gathering experiences that enrich their inner and outer worlds. Storytelling, role-play, and imaginative play are woven into the rhythm of each day, nurturing creativity, flexible thinking, and the seeds of lifelong learning.

Social skills—such as listening with an open heart, working together in harmony, and resolving differences with care—are cultivated gently and intentionally during these formative years.

Our educators practice deep listening, following the thread of each child's questions and discoveries. Through the 'life of an idea' framework, an emergent curriculum takes shape—alive to the children's interests and growing understanding. Each day closes with quiet reflection among the teachers, as they gather the threads of the day and prepare to meet the children's journeys anew with thoughtfulness and joy.

Elementary Years

The elementary years form a rich and vital foundation, where children’s growing independence is nurtured with care. Literacy blooms during this time, empowering students to express themselves with clarity and confidence under the thoughtful guidance of their educators.

It is also in these years that a true sense of community begins to take root. Core elements of Social and Emotional Learning (SEL)—such as cultivating a growth mindset, practicing fairness and kindness, honoring differences with respect, developing emotional resilience, and embracing one’s unique gifts—are woven intentionally into the life of the classroom.

As critical thinking deepens and children’s awareness of the wider world sharpens, they begin to question, to wonder, and to envision change. Their emerging voice is honored through the introduction of democratic practices such as voting on classroom agreements, inviting them to experience firsthand the responsibilities of decision-making and the spirit of shared governance.

Through these experiences, students not only strengthen their academic skills but also grow into thoughtful, capable members of a larger community.

Middle Years

By the middle years, students are called to take greater ownership of their journeys—setting personal goals, reflecting on their growth, and seeking support with courage and self-awareness when challenges arise.

Academic development takes on new strength during this stage, with mathematics and rich, transdisciplinary projects forming the pillars of intellectual exploration. Alongside these shared studies, students continue to pursue personal inquiries through their concentration work, diving deeper into questions and passions that stir their curiosity.

Democratic life flourishes during these years. Students step into active roles within the community’s decision-making processes, serving on interest-based committees that sustain the life of the school. Whether managing fairness and accountability through the Judicial Committee, nurturing student-led businesses with the Business Committee, organizing outreach efforts in the Social Work Committee, or tending to the living classroom of the herb garden and animals through the Farming Committee, students experience firsthand what it means to lead, to serve, and to shape the world around them with intention and care.

Senior Years

As students approach their O Levels, they step forward with a well-rooted sense of independence, charting their learning journeys at a pace and rhythm that honors their individual needs.

This is a time of deep self-construction, where great care is given to building personal profiles that celebrate each student’s unique strengths, interests, and evolving aspirations. Alongside academic preparation, students are supported through thoughtful mentorship across a wide range of subjects, ensuring that their growth is not only measured by grades, but also by the confidence, curiosity, and resilience they carry into the wider world.

Through this balance of rigor and reflection, students are prepared to meet both the challenges of examination and the greater adventure of life beyond school.
