Junior kindergarten builds on everything children learned in preschool & prepares them for a successful kindergarten year.

Phonics, reading & STEM

Children arrive in junior kindergarten with a strong foundation of learning, friendships, problem-solving, and independence, and we build on all of it.

They keep working on their academics, with a curriculum enriched by STEM activities that spark curiosity and analytical thinking. They also enjoy special subjects like art, music, P.E., technology, and foreign language.

Through our Global Citizenship program, children are introduced to cultures, countries, and customs from around the world, and they visit our lab for hands-on STEAM projects.
