DONATIONS RECEIVED

We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to the Peagie Wobay Scholarship Fund for donating over 1000 books in support of our library and resource project. We say thank you for your kind gestures.

OUR MODEL OF CHANGE - LIBRARY AND RESOURCE CENTER

The model of the centre is to combine early childhood with a child-centred development that put emphasis on listening, reading, practicing and testing. At the centre, we give every child a voice and opportunity to interact, ask questions and feel proud to try and fail.

Our model of tutorship is focus on mentoring the child to achieving his/her full potential. We inspire children to learn something that isn’t found in school. Our teaching curriculum looks at Coding for Kids, Understanding the Computer, Developing Self-Confidence, Learning to Read, Story Telling and the Power of Communication.
