Computer technology is included in the daily curriculum. We also have Gardening and Cooking classes which add an extra, enriching dimension to our Life Skills and Entrepreneurship curriculum. We value and integrate age appropriate sport development in our school programme. Every year we stage a musical giving all our little stars a chance to shine! We encourage children to question their environment and problem solve. We respect what each individual child brings to the classroom learning experience and the children's curiosity and input is valued. At Principia we believe in integrated whole brain education to develop every child's strengths.
