Our educational philosophy is inspired by the Holistic Education Approach, which seeks to educate the child as a whole. By learning about themselves children acquire self-respect and self-esteem, and by learning about relationships children acquire a sense of community and resilience, which gives them the knowledge to overcome difficulties and the ability to face challenges. Finally, the holistic approach to education encourages the students to interact with nature and to see the beauty of what is around them and learn to take care of it. Our distinctive curriculum is designed to meet each child’s individual needs and help children reach appropriate milestones. The center is owned and operated by a dedicated team with over 25 years of hands on experience with educating children; including their own children.
