Pre-Primary schooling for boys and girls aged three to five begins in Grades 000 and 00 at Little Saints. Our Reggio inspired socio-constructivist approach to pre-school education allows children to find meaning and build their understanding of the world in which they live through their own exploration and discovery. The view that children are strong and competent is central to this exciting creative approach. A profound respect for the child is reflected in the emphasis it places on the defence and promotion of the rights and potential of all children. Creativity, communication, social interaction and a strong focus on play-based learning contribute to this most successful approach.
Little Saints hums with the happy noises of children busily doing what they enjoy most and do best – playing. This validates German educationalist Friedrich Froebel’s sentiment, Play is the serious business of childhood.
