Our Nursery Rooms 

1

BABY ROOM

3 months - 2 years

The first two years of a child’s life are critical for brain and language development and the early encounters lay the foundation for future intellectual and emotional development.

2

TODDLERS ROOM

2 years - 3 years

This is the age where children will experience dramatic change, as they develop from a dependent baby to a much more independent child and progress along their path to Pre-School.

3

PRESCHOOL ROOM

3 years - 5 years

As children progress in their development, our aim is to

introduce a structure, pace and a style of teaching to our classes which forms the beginning of their educational journey.
