The school’s mission, philosophy and practices are inspired by the developmental theories of Piaget, Dewey, Montessori, Erikson, Bruner, Vygotsky and Malaguzzi. We are also, inspired by the Reggio-Emilia approach to education.

Based on the studies of these individuals and methods, we are more concerned with the process of learning than specific products. A young child is constantly learning through experimentation, exploration and having the need to solve problems. Our goal is to help foster the development of a child’s critical thinking skills and the ability to communicate by providing meaningful opportunities to experiment, explore, question and PLAY.
