Kindergarten in English
The didactical project is based on an annual theme, developed month by month, following the seasons, the year’s most important events, holidays… all relevant to the child’s environment.
Our kindergarten program strives to stimulate several areas such as fine motor skills, art, music, socialization, and the ability to communicate, but also some basic principles of logic, preliminary calculation, writing and vocabulary.
Children are immersed in the English language and, most of the time, divided into same age groups.
