Children are continuously assessed throughout their process of education which introduces and reinforces concepts and activities as the children go from one stage to another. All the staff works as a team so as to ensure continuity and balance between the cognitive, socio-affective and motor skills. A child’s introduction to school is of utmost importance, as these first impressions may well influence the rest of the child’s life.
