Welcome to Earthkids Pre-Primary “Education with care”.
Our school caters for children from 2 – 5 years of age, we at Earthkids believe every child needs individual attention in a secure, constructive, social, loving and nurturing environment; therefore we aim to keep our classes small. Our teachers have an assistant in each class with a maximum of 16 children.
Earthkids follows a traditional educational school practice. Our programme follows a selected theme of the week providing children with the games and activities related to these themes, giving them knowledge about our world we live in. Emphasis is placed largely on each child’s instinctive abilities to learn through play. Each class is equipped with educational toys, puzzles, Lego and constructional toys. All of these are designed to stimulate yours child’s mind while learning.
Fine Motor skills/Art – Through art a child is able to interpret the world around him/her. Art helps a child clarify his perceptions and gives meaning and structure to his experiences.
Music – Through music and song a child develops a feeling for language. Music is also an integral part of auditory perception.
Gross Motor skills / Outdoor – Children enjoy the freedom of movement while developing gross motor skills in our large well equipped playground. We offer numerous extra mural activities that specialize in this important developmental area of a child.
Social and Environment – We teach the children about giving to the less fortunate. We have teamed up with wonderful charities and encourage children to participate. Teaching children to respect our environment by learning about the world we live in. We encourage an understanding of healthy eating habits.
Effective learning can only take place in a relaxed nurturing atmosphere. Our teachers develop warm loving relationships with the children based on mutual acceptance and respect.
“The energy which makes a child hard to manage is the energy which afterwards makes him a manager for life.”
Henry Ward Beecher
