Curriculum

The curriculum is rooted in Christian values, with the Values Matter programme introducing key values and learning dispositions each term across all year groups.

Weekly motor skills sessions and daily outdoor play further support physical development. The programme runs from Playgroup through Kindergarten 2 (ages about 18 months to 6 years), preparing children for a smooth transition into Primary 1.
