Class Overview
We combine Montessori and British curriculum principles to create a rich, culturally diverse learning experience that fosters independence and prepares children for UAE schools.
Junior Toddler Class
4 Months To 12 Months
At this age, toddlers are naturally curious and love exploring objects. Our program encourages this curiosity through activities that involve gathering, filling, emptying, stacking, and transferring items.
These activities support sensory development and prepare children for preschool. We also maintain a consistent routine similar to what they have at home, helping them feel comfortable and settled in their new environment.
Toddler Class
12 Months To 2 Years
This class is designed for young children who are steady on their feet and ready for new learning challenges. The preschool program includes one-on-one sessions focusing on fine motor skills
and sensory exercises. Materials are accessible for self-exploration, helping children refine their movements and learn to feed themselves during breaks. The curriculum also introduces art, group activities, French and Arabic language lessons, music, sports, and circle time.
Pre-school Class
2 Years To 3 Years
At this stage, children are introduced to a more structured environment with clear ground rules. They are encouraged to make choices from various learning areas, fostering independence.
Activities focus on sensory play and language development, using the Jolly Phonics system and sensory sandpaper alphabet symbols. Children start to recognize symbols and associate them with sounds. In numeracy, numeric symbols are linked to quantities through sensory, artistic, and hands-on activities.
FS1 Class
3 Years To 4 Years
In the Pre-School 2 class, each child engages in activities tailored to their age, interests, and abilities. Teachers observe daily to determine when a child is ready to progress.
While the FS 1 program follows the EYFS curriculum, it’s also Montessori-inspired, allowing children to develop at their own pace. The 7 learning areas and materials are accessible to all children, who are encouraged to challenge themselves. They work individually or in groups during their daily work cycle.
FS2 Class
4 Years To 5 Years
At this stage, children develop essential language and numeracy skills for mainstream schooling. They engage in hands-on math activities, counting, comparing, and learning
basic addition and subtraction. Fine motor skills are developed through various writing activities, such as tracing letters and writing in different media. By year-end, children can write their names and recognize letter sounds, preparing for reading. Social interaction, emotional growth, and independence are emphasized. Children learn to follow directions, take turns, share, and cooperate. They are encouraged to make decisions and make good choices.
