Elementary School
Parents | Activities | Enrolment | Responsbilities

The school has two environments (classroom).
One for the 3 -6 year olds (Pre-Primary) and one for the 6 – 12 years old (Elementary).
The pre-primary would work for 10 weeks and break for 12 days.

Elementary
Nurtures the love for learning
Children take responsibility for their own learning.
Learn through concrete material and use their reasoning and imaginative mind to go to abstraction.

Mixed age
Going out – which involves parents.
Teacher – is a mentor, guide, facilitator and friend.
Elementary curriculum is very broad and so the teachers have to have a broad and through knowledge. They should inspire a sense of wonder and imagination in the child.

Primary/elementary
The elementary program offers a continuum built on the pre-primary/primary experience.
The environment reflects a new stage of development and offers the following:
Integration of the arts, sciences, geography, history, and language that evokes the native imagination and abstraction of the elementary child.
Presentation of the formal scientific language of zoology, botany, anthropology, geography, geology, etc., exposing the child to accurate, organized information and respecting the child's intelligence and interests.
The use of timelines, pictures, charts, and other visual aids to provide a linguistic and visual overview of the first principles of each discipline.
Presentation of knowledge as part of a large-scale narrative that unfolds the origins of the earth, life, human communities, and modern history, always in the context of the wholeness of life.
A mathematics curriculum presented with concrete materials that simultaneously reveal arithmetic, geometric, and algebraic correlations.
Emphasis on open-ended research and in-depth study using primary and secondary sources (no textbooks or worksheets) as well as other materials.
