School's main purpose is to develop an environment where the child can unfold spontaneously and manifest the person within.
As the child begins to develop this inner self, his love of life and learning expands continuously.
The school will provide a safe, secure nurturing atmosphere where the child can develop a positive sense of self-worth at his own pace.
The school will provide exciting choices and free play where the child can explore and experience the joy of learning.
The child will be able to develop socially by interacting with his peers, and be actively involved in the process of sharing, cooperation and communication.
