Our preschool programme is one of the best preschool programmes in Greater Noida. It is designed to offer quality education, worldly exposure, and positive social interactions in the foundational years. It lays a strong foundation for early literacy, numeracy, cognitive and social development, and builds lifelong learning.

Experiential Learning:
Experiential learning is the heart of our pre-school programme. Our little ones engage in symbolic exploration, develop strong values, and build social and emotional intelligence through hands-on experiences, nature walks, and social interactions.
Reading Programme
We are committed to fostering a love for reading and enhancing our students' literacy skills through our comprehensive Reading Programme, implemented in collaboration with RAZ Plus. Our programme includes a rich collection of age-appropriate, levelled reading books and activities designed to cater to the diverse needs of our students. With a focus on developing strong reading and comprehension skills, the programme incorporates a variety of reading styles such as pointed reading, loud reading, and silent reading, allowing students to engage with the material in different ways.
Exposure to different reading methods enhances fluency, pronunciation, and overall reading confidence. With regular practise and structured reading, learners gradually develop vocabulary building, comprehension strategies, and analytical thinking.
Socio-ethical-emotional Development
We prioritise Socio-Ethical-Emotional Development (SEED) through a multifaceted approach that includes circle times, one-on-one discussions, daily reflections, community lunches, life-skill lessons, etc.
- Circle times create a safe space for students to express their thoughts and feelings, fostering empathy and mutual respect.
- One-on-one and group discussions provide personalised support, helping students navigate personal challenges and build self-awareness.
- Daily reflections encourage introspection, allowing students to contemplate their actions and develop a growth mindset.
- Community lunches promote inclusivity and camaraderie, breaking down social barriers and enhancing peer relationships.
- Life-skill lessons equip students with essential skills such as conflict resolution, effective communication, and ethical decision-making, preparing them for real-world scenarios.
Through these activities, students develop emotional intelligence, ethical reasoning, and social skills, contributing to their overall well-being and preparing them to become compassionate, responsible global citizens.
Stage Performances:
Students are encouraged to overcome their stage fear by participating in grand celebrations held in ‘Abhivyakti’- our school auditorium. Events like Mother's Day, Grandparent's Day, etc. allow them to show their talents in music, dance, percussion, and drama. These special occasions are marked with joyous festivities, heart-warming performances, personalised tributes, and interactive activities that honour the invaluable roles of parents and grandparents in our lives.
They also serve as a testament to our commitment towards promoting family values and strengthening children’s relationship with their loved ones.
