OUR APPROACH
A safe & secure, child friendly place equipped with activities, play materials and stimulating print rich environment
A school readiness programme to enhance children’s 5 developmental domains: cognitive, socio-emotional, language, physical, aesthetic and creative development. Our programme lays the foundation for the development of reading, writing and number work.
Implementation:
- Regular classes: The Pre-primary school caters to 34 children so far between the ages of 3 to 6 years. We conduct classes 5 days a week from 9:00 am to 12:00 pm and meals are served regularly after classes.
- Plans and activities: Flexible classes so that our lesson plans and activities can accommodate large groups for singing and storytelling and smaller groups for activities and individual play.
- Trained Educators: Classes are conducted by trained ECCE teachers who implement pre-designed lesson plans.
- Assessment: Regularly assess children’s progress every three months to document their development.
- Parents Teacher Meetings: Held twice a month with 7 meetings conducted so far.
- Community Visits: Over 30 visits have been conducted as part of the program.
- Student participation in Events: Students participated in different events like -Rongali Bihu, Teachers’ Day, Childrens’ Day and Christmas Day celebrations. They also participated in the art & craft, drama, dance workshops during the Summer Camp.
