At Creative Kids Preschool Centre, our goal is to provide a creative learning and nurturing environment that will stimulate the growth and development of autonomous children; and to instil the love of learning in children and help them to succeed in a safe and encouraging atmosphere. Children are active, little scientists exploring their world. They tend to grasp and develop a better understanding
of concepts when they are fully engaged in the learning process. Learning is a lifelong process and the early years of a child's life are especially critical and important . Therefore, the teaching framework of Creative Kids is based on; knowledge of how children grow and develop emotionally, socially, cognitively, physically and morally/spiritually. Respect for the unique qualities of each child in the context of her/his family and culture. A firm understanding of how children acquire knowledge, their thinking and learning processes and methods to activate these attributes via creative, innovative and fun learning experiences.
