KIRAN MEHTA
  ( Incharge, Pre-Primary Wing )

The Nursery Wing is located in a separate block equipped with modern amenities. It has large and airy rooms with open play areas. Activities that maintain optimal balance between play and learning, which are age appropriate and mentally stimulating are the hallmarks here. Aimed at developing the cognitive skills of young children, the environment allows and motivates them to develop their own unique personalities.

The focus is making each child understand the basic concepts through play-based activities rather than rote learning. Play is the most natural medium of learning. Simple décor and colourful furniture adorn the class rooms. In the Activity Room children participate in activities that draw out the best in them. Children keep themselves occupied either by watching T.V. and video or playing with stuffed toys on the swings.

To beat the heat, children get into splash pools and play water polo during summers.

Occasional outdoor trips are organized to amusement parks, important public and close by historical places, to make them adventurous and appreciative.

Summer Camps are conducted to discover the hidden talent of the students. The idea behind them is to give a chance to do those activities which cannot be done in class rooms. Children learn dance (classical as well as western), communication skills and various other activities.

Music is transmitted to all the rooms on the speakers inorder to provide relaxation and enjoyment to the children, who are busy in painting or printing exercises. The spick and span environment provides absolute physical as well as emotional security to children, as the teachers sit with them on low chairs and mix freely among them. They facilitate the learning process and share with them the joys of learning.

There is no rigid time table or developmental check-list. Every care is taken to keep alive their natural instincts and give a boost to their spirits.

The mini-zoo with an aquarium consisting of glistening multi-coloured fish fascinates the children. With the introduction of playway computers, our tiny tots are being prepared for the computer age. In the quagmire of jet-set facilities we have not forgotten our roots. Children celebrate all the major festivals in order to have a feel of their rich culture and varied heritage.
