Programme Highlights
MATH
Children from SK to grade 8 develop mathematical and problem-solving skills through our enriched math class. Challenging and engaging activities broaden math skills as children also prepare for various mathematical competitions in small groups.
EARLY ENGLISH READING
This phonics-based programme helps children entering SK and grade 1 get a start on reading. It is also useful for those who need extra help reading. The innovative approach, tailored to the abilities of each child, will provide the tools children need to be successful independent readers and writers. Children will be exposed to multiple strategies in their reading and have the opportunity to make projects based on everyday language.
DANCE
Children have loads of fun building fitness, learning body control and self-expression through dance. Classes can vary from Bollywood Jazz to Hip Hop.
