ACTIVITIES
tHESE ARE THE 5 DREAM PILLARS WE BUILD ON.
Development
We also cater to the gifted. Under Didi’s leadership, they achieve a 100% success rate in applying to exclusive schools (Porg, Open Gate, Currie, Magic Hill, PBIS, etc.). We work with expert-developed worksheets, Kumon, Raven’s Progressive Matrices, logically structured preparation, thought maps, projects, the NTC system, and more. We help kids prepare for entering primary school.
Read and Relax
Our charges can select their own relaxation activities. For those who like to nap, we have our magical bedroom, where they can listen to calm music or fairy tales for the best dreams. Those who don’t can spend the time with any of a number of non-strenuous activities. Many prefer books, and we support their choice. We have picture books, stories by inspiring children’s authors, and encyclopedias. We take care to select quality literature. We teach basic techniques of mental discipline and mental hygiene, which we believe are an important tool for today’s hectic, information-packed life.
English
Under the leadership of our head English teacher, a native speaker, our charges learn the language in its most natural form. Our Czech-English curriculum familiarizes kids with a broad vocabulary in both languages. Kids from English-speaking and bilingual families are very welcome.
Art
Creativity and independent thought and decision-making are our most important pillars. We support our charges’ imagination and show them how to express it, as well as how to understand the world around them. We support them in learning to express their emotions, thoughts, and attitudes. We take a holistic approach where the children themselves discover how to organize their work, prepare their workspace, gather tools, present their creations, clean up, and cooperate throughout. We believe all children are perfect as they are and deserve an individual approach.
Music
Song, dance, rhythmic drumbeats, and flutes accompany most of our days. Research shows that early effort to combine music and thought improves the density of linkage between different parts of the brain. Using both sight and sound helps your child think at full throttle. It’s also a major boon to emotional balance.
What’s our day like?
