Peter & Jane Kindergarten has a long and impressive history of excellence. It has consistently provided leadership in early childhood education and beyond. This is a school that seeks to give young children confidence in their abilities and skills, and to have their minds heard. They promote the concept that school life is not one that should just focus on a child’s academic needs but should be a journey that comprises a healthy balance of extracurriculars, essential skills and fun!
All of the developments in its programmes, spaces and teachers reflect a desire to create a learning experience that is forward thinking and progressive. The team keeps their eyes peeled about how early childhood education is changing with the times, not just locally but globally. There is always continuous discussion and planning to examine effective methods and improve on existing elements.
Learning always starts where the child is. Be it a child who is motivated but lacks social skills or one who is physically nimble but weak in reading, teachers treat each child as an individual. They observe how individual students perform and tap on their strengths and work on their weaknesses. Children are placed in small groups so that teachers can respond to each child’s unique needs and help every child excel. Individualised education does require more work from the teachers but fret not, there is a strong supportive team behind the Puchong branch. Plus, Peter & Jane Kindergarten places an investment in professional development.
Each day at the kindergarten brings new learning opportunities through an integrated curriculum. Children do not only learn reading and pre-writing skills when going through language lessons; those skills are also taught within other subject areas such as Science and Mathematics. This approach leads to a much deeper and richer learning experience for children.
Lessons incorporate a myriad of hand-on, multi-sensorial experiences that are relevant to real-life. Children learn by doing theme-based activities, where they will cover Practical Living Skills, Sensory Motor Skills, Early Language Skills, Early Mathematical Skills, Science, Personal Safety, Moral Values, Musical Skills, Physical Education, and Creativity and Aesthetics. There are also other activities such as field trips, role plays and waterplay to enhance learning. Also integral to the curriculum is a healthy lunch programme that nourishes children’s minds and bodies from inside out. This approach to learning develops well-rounded children who can happily flourish in all aspects of life.
Central to its operations is a strong emphasis on the interconnected relationships among children, parents and teachers. The kindergarten values open communication to promote sharing of ideas, and a responsive and caring environment. This positive school climate is one of the most important cornerstones of a good structure that supports children to learn and grow.
Peter & Jane Kindergarten thrives on bringing families together through collaborative partnerships that contributes to the needs of young children and the society. They build trust and respect, and provide a diverse range of learning opportunities that reflect the interests of the local community. They honour achievements and inspire all, children and adults, to achieve success.
