Separating the children by age allows us to provide activities and environments that are suitable to the unique needs of each age-group. Each of our programs are designed to provide children with enrichment in science and arts, as well as plenty of time for physical exercise through sports, games, and outdoor activities. Our primary and junior programs each provide time for homework and academic support.
