Early childhood education is a pivotal stage in a child’s growth, setting the foundation for future learning and development. At Little Graduates Schools Preschool, with locations in Pretoria (Brooklyn, Centurion, Rietfontein) and Johannesburg (Linden, Moot), we pride ourselves on offering rich learning opportunities that inspire curiosity, creativity, and confidence in children aged 3 months to 6 years old. Here’s how we provide a transformative early education experience:
A Curriculum Designed for Holistic Development
Little Graduates Preschool follows an accelerated and integrated curriculum that engages young learners in dynamic and imaginative ways. Drawing from research in Early Childhood Development (ECD) and educational best practices in Gauteng, our program nurtures intellectual, emotional, and social growth. Each learning activity is carefully crafted to:
- Foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills
- Encourage language development and literacy
- Promote early numeracy and mathematical reasoning
- Inspire a love for science, technology, and creative arts
Learning Through Play
Research highlights the importance of play-based learning in early childhood education. At Little Graduates, play is a core element of our teaching strategy. Children explore, experiment, and engage with their environment in ways that promote natural curiosity. Our classrooms are designed to offer:
- Structured and unstructured play opportunities
- Creative activities that stimulate imagination and innovation
- Group interactions that teach cooperation, communication, and empathy
Developing Physical Skills Through Active Engagement
Physical development is an essential part of early learning. We integrate a variety of sports and physical activities to build motor skills, coordination, and physical fitness. Our program embraces diversity in sports, providing learners with opportunities to participate in culturally enriching and inclusive physical experiences.
A Culturally Enriched Learning Environment
Little Graduates Preschool celebrates diversity and inclusion by creating a multiracial and multicultural community. Children from different backgrounds learn together, fostering mutual respect and understanding. Cultural events, language exploration, and global awareness activities help children appreciate the beauty of diversity and prepare them for a connected world.
Parental Involvement and Collaboration
We believe that parental engagement is key to a child’s success. Little Graduates Schools partner with families to create a supportive and collaborative learning environment. Regular communication, parent-teacher meetings, and family-focused events ensure a strong connection between home and school.
