what is their philosophy?
We are inspired by the philosophies of the world-renowned school for young children in Reggio Emilia and by theories of the constructivist and social constructivist and creative thinking of Lev Vygotsky, Howard Gardner, Rinadi, Montessori and Jean Piaget. Through this co-construction, a firm knowledge base grows and continues to evolve. It is fostered through close and responsive relationships and then afforded by a rich learning environment that facilitates enquiry and engagement.
