During early years, the child is guided by natural laws and learns from the immediate environment progressing from known to unknown, simple to complex and from the concrete to the abstract in developing his/ her personality.

While many children continue to be in the care of their parents and guardians, there is a growing need for children in the age group of 3-6 years surroundings to spend part of their time in daycare and nursery/ preschool facilities.

The secret of good teaching is to regard the child’s intelligence as a fertile field in which seeds may be sown to grow under the heat of flaming imagination.

Our aim therefore is not merely to make the child understand and still less to force him to memorise, but so to touch his imagination as to enthuse him/her to his/her most core.

We seek to sow life in the child rather than theories to help him in his growth, mental, emotional and physical.

Development

Development implies the total growth in physical, cognitive, social, emotional, moral and spiritual aspects. Development can either be accelerated or retarded depending on the social and physical environment of the child (feeding, stimulation, care, love, interaction, social, climate and other experiences the child goes through in his environment).

Children learn by doing, activity is the most important aspect of the process of learning in young children, the more children interact with their environment through activity based learning, the greater will be clarity of the concepts they develop.
