Our focus is to provide stimulating early care using a combined curriculum to help children develop a healthy mind as well as a healthy body. We aim to inspire children to be life-long learners and establish a cooperative relationship between parents and staff. Our curriculum encourages curiosity and builds self-confidence.

• This includes a complete program of developmentally appropriate activities based on the child’s age.

• Activities include science, arts & crafts, computers, math, language, motor skills, dramatic play, cooking, music and much more.

• Different areas are integrated to make the child’s learning experience meaningful and fun.

• Our curriculum facilitates the development of the social, emotional, intellectual and physical aspects of the child as a whole.

• Also, an integrated curriculum enhances the daily experiences of children, meets their individual needs through a program that is creative, self-paced and very educational.

• To complement our program we also offer a extra-curricular activities, cooking activities, camps and special events.

We believe that parents, teachers, and children are partners in the educational process and that good, open communication as well as parent participation is essential to the life of our school and the well-being of the children.

There are many possibilities for parent involvement:

• Participation can range from a spontaneous moment of storytelling during the morning transition to more in-depth involvement in a classroom project.

• Teacher from individual classrooms are best able to discuss possibilities for your participation.

• Teachers are eager to communicate with the parents and will schedule time for this once a month or at Parent/Teacher Conferences- besides these moments, please feel free to call and leave a message. You can also e-mail us at: info@plgkidsacademy.com

• If you have a question or a subject to discuss we will call back after class or at an agreed time. Conferring should not take place at dismissal.

• We appreciate that you do not go to the classrooms in the morning to discuss any matters.
