Full-Day Preschool for a Strong Start

The SEED program is for children aged 2.5 years, marking their first step into the world of preschool to lay the foundation for early learning through exploration and discovery. Like a seed, children at this stage are beginning to sprout curiosity and develop essential skills through sensory play and nurturing interactions.

STEAM: Sensory-rich experiences in art, nature, and simple science encourage exploration, creativity, and motor skills development through hands-on play.

Literacy & Phonemic Awareness: Exposure to sounds and rhythms through songs, rhymes, and picture books, fostering early awareness of language and letter sounds in a playful way.

Language: Introduction to simple words and phrases in a second language through songs and everyday routines, supporting early verbal skills.

Fine Motor & Pre-Writing: Activities like stacking blocks, finger painting, and simple manipulative play to develop hand-eye coordination and fine motor control.

Math Skills: Exploring numbers, shapes, and sizes through counting games, sorting, and sensory activities that build early number awareness.

Social-Emotional Development: Building trust, sharing, and basic cooperation through guided play and nurturing interactions with peers and teachers.

Academic Progression: Encouraging curiosity and confidence, setting the stage for the structured learning in the SPROUT program.

The SPROUT program is for children turning 3 on or before December 31st of the current year. The name "SPROUT" symbolizes the growth and blossoming of a child’s early cognitive and social abilities. At this stage, children are building on the skills developed as a SEED and are starting to engage in more structured learning while developing a deeper understanding of literacy, math, and social-emotional skills.

STEAM: STEAM: Open-ended projects in art, building, and early science spark creativity, problem-solving, and hands-on experimentation.

Literacy & Phonemic Awareness: Letter recognition and sound association through songs, stories, and tactile activities like tracing letters in sand, painting with Q-tips, or using playdough letters.

Language: Introduction to vocabulary in a second language through songs, stories, and everyday classroom use.

Fine Motor & Pre-Writing: Continued practice on pencil grip, early pre-writing exercises such as tracing lines, shapes, and basic letters, building with small blocks, and stringing beads to strengthen fine motor control.

Math Skills: Building number sense through playful counting, pattern recognition, and hands-on exploration of shapes and quantities.

Social-Emotional Development: Learning about cooperation, empathy, and developing friendships through group activities and cooperative play.

Academic Progression: Strengthening foundational literacy and numeracy skills, preparing children for Junior Kindergarten with more structured learning.

The SAPLING program is for children turning 4 on or before December 31st of the current year. Like a sapling, children at this stage are becoming more independent learners, ready to grow further in their academic and social abilities. In SAPLING, children continue to refine foundational skills, including literacy and numeracy, while also developing problem-solving and social-emotional skills.

STEAM: Deeper exploration of science, art, and engineering through monthly themes, building challenges, and group experiments.

Literacy & Phonics: Uppercase letter tracing, name writing, and a strong focus on letter-sound relationships to begin blending and reading simple words.

Language: Expanded second-language vocabulary through songs, daily phrases, and playful repetition.

Mathematics: Deepening understanding of numbers and math concepts with real-world connections like comparing, measuring, and simple problem-solving.

Phonics: Applying phonemic awareness to read simple words and sentences; beginning to recognize common sight words and use phonics knowledge to decode new words.

Writing Skills: Tracing and writing uppercase letters, name writing, and gaining control within lines through guided practice.

Cognitive Skills: Developing problem-solving and critical thinking through puzzles, games, and other hands-on activities that foster logical reasoning.

Social-Emotional Skills: Strengthening self-regulation, teamwork, and conflict resolution in group play, as well as managing emotions in a structured environment.

Academic Progression: A balanced focus on phonics, numeracy, and writing in preparation for Kindergarten.
