Early Years
Our busy Early Years provides an exciting introduction to a world of learning for our youngest learners from ages 2 to 5 years. Children receive a holistic and interactive classroom experience involving indoor and outdoor areas.
All areas of learning are interconnected and equally important. Dynamic child-led themes deliver the curriculum, with specific structures built around Phonics, Reading, Physical Education, Swimming, Music, and Computing.

Our Learning Environment
We believe that children learn best when they feel safe, inspired, and free to explore. Across our Njiro and Kisongo campuses, we have created beautiful, stimulating environments both inside and out. Our welcoming indoor classrooms are set up with exciting resources that invite children to play, create, and discover. We also place a strong emphasis on outdoor learning, with a seamless flow between our indoor and outdoor spaces. Outside, your child will find diverse activities tailored to their development, from climbing and balancing on our play equipment, to getting their hands dirty in our gardening areas, and engaging with the world through tactile sensory exploration.

Social & Emotional Growth: Children build strong friendships, grow in self-confidence, and learn to care for one another in a supportive classroom family.
-
Confident Communication: We place a strong focus on listening and speaking skills, ensuring every child finds their voice and learns to express their ideas.
-
Creative & Physical Exploration: From active outdoor play to hands-on art and design, our students develop essential motor skills and unleash their imaginations.
We love watching our young learners grow into happy, confident, and curious individuals ready for the rest of their school journey!
