Learning is a constructivist process at kiddies School. The learning model is centered on the integral development of all the children’s cognitive potential. Based on Multiple Intelligences Theory, we offer a wide range of tasks and project work , as well as opportunities for them to transfer to other aereas.
The Italian Reggian Schools do influence our work too, as creativity arises at all times in a highly motivating and rich environment. The language for communication at Kiddies School is English. Parents and family are welcome to take part in our project by having an active role in sharing with us their job, hobbies or knowledge of the topics we are working on.
We search for endless opportunities to raise their curiosity to learn by estimulating senses, offering hand-in- experience, and fostering self discovery, creativity and play.
The teachers at Kiddies School are professionals who have great experience and are open to readapt their role to investigators recording childhood daily , interpreting their culture, ideas, and way of seeing the world around them. Observant and flexible teachers that absorb the iniciative and ideas the children put forward and be able to adapt and include them into the syllabus. The planning of Project work is design in detail to cater for every child’s needs and interests in play contexts.
