Junior Program

The Junior Program at Heritage International School is thrilling, most enlightening with a plethora of fun filled learning experiences. The Pre Primary wing is comprised of young learners aged 2.5 years to 5 years. We offer a consistently structured routine focusing on early education which can inspire the love for learning. We provide an environment for children to explore a sense of self play with peers and build self confidence.

The Junior program curriculum sets the tone for learning by kindling the inherent curiosity in young children. At this stage, children are active and curious to explore, and love to play by engaging in activities that interest them. While the Pre primary program builds on pre-literacy and pre-numeracy skills, it also focuses on developing social and personal skills as well as critical and creative thinking. This is an important developmental stage that lays the foundation for lifelong learning.

The use of innovative and engaging teaching methodologies, incorporating a blend of Montessori and Play-Way techniques, help create a happy learning environment with fun-filled activities.
