KidS Bilingual Full Day Programme
Our KidS programme is designed for students aged 1-4 and is based on the principle that the early years are the most critical in a child’s development. The programme is designed to promote and encourage active learning, children learn best when they are actively engaged with the world around them. The programme is designed around our Five Pillars of Expression and students rotate around the pillars; Language and Thinking, Musical Expression, Expressive Arts, Movement, Play Time.
Children receive English exposure through instructions given to them in this language. With the advantage of our English Lab, students are able to begin their journey towards their second language, making their admissions process into IB or international schools a lot easier. It is a proven fact that children that are exposed to a second language before the age of 6, tend to learn it at a similar proficiency as their native language. Other ways of improving the acquisition process of a second language is through activities in art, play and social interaction.
K4KidS Full Day Programme
Our full day programme is tailored for older children aged 4-5 to prepare them for their transition into school. The programme is modelled on a pre-kinder curriculum: Maths, Literacy and pre reading/writing in English which prepares students for an English immersed environment. Through music, art, play and academic differentiation, students are given the support to thrive in all areas. At K4KidS every morning is started with a routine, preparing children for the day ahead. Activities are designed to stimulate and enrich learning, children are encouraged to use their creativity and imagination to learn in a fun and unique way. Children are given the opportunity to demonstrate what they have learnt throughout the year and share these special moments with their parents. The nursery organises outdoor activities and events to bring families together.
Adaptation Programme (part-time)
This part time programme, tailored towards under 2s, focuses on the gradual adaptation of our students to their new environment. Students begin attending the kindergarten for a couple of hours three times a week and once the staff see that the student is ready they will suggest a slow but steady move towards a full week schedule. This programme has proven to be very effective and has shown that younger students feel a lot safer and happy in their daily routine.
Inclusive Education Programme
The inclusive education program is built to provide children with special educational needs with a flexible curriculum that fits their different requirements and develops their potential. During the admissions process our team of experts assess the child and work with families to set up a parallel programme that fits the child’s needs while still allowing them to be an active part of their class group and develop their social skills. This program is aimed to help students with adaptation and build the skill set for them to succeed in a school environment.
New! Baby Tadpoles Classroom
We are delighted to be opening our new classroom ‘Tadpoles‘ specially designed for babies 12-18 months old! The programme promotes open-ended play by encouraging children to develop spatial awareness by exploring their surroundings. Children develop speech and language skills through rhymes, songs and body language. The baby room focuses on the individual needs of each child whilst also introducing daily routine and play time. Our days will be full of story time, art, music and daily opportunities for developing fine and gross motor skills in a positive and nurturing learning environment.
KidS Summer Camp
Every year between June and July, KidS runs a bilingual summer camp for children aged 2-7. KidS Summer Camp is open to all families, giving children the opportunity to experience new activities, make friends and immerse themselves in a bilingual environment.
