Every day includes Music & Movement and time in the indoor playground.
Children move between focused work, movement, and play with purpose.
They shift naturally between independent work and shared activity.
Each day brings a different focus, allowing children to explore one area at a time and deepen their understanding across the week.
Music & Movement also changes each day, with varied activities that build expression, rhythm, and coordination.
Each part of the day is carefully prepared to support how children learn.

School Year & Program Structure
The school year is organized into three terms, each lasting approximately 12 weeks, followed by a shorter summer program of 7 to 8 weeks.
The summer program continues the flow of learning, often with its own distinctive theme.
This structure allows children to stay engaged and build on their understanding throughout the year.
