read moreThere is growing evidence to show how creative arts play a pivotal role in the anchoring of children in STREAM related spheres. Some of the more salient advantages of Creative Arts are that they help refine motor skills, enrich language development, strengthens decision making, amongst other benefits.
Children need to develop large motor and small motor skills and cardiovascular endurance. Extensive physical activity is also needed to address a growing problem of obesity in children, globally.
Self belief and self confidence are qualities that must be infused in children starting a young age. Departing from the conventional method of simply providing the skills to talk, our program trains children to speak with confidence. They learn to attune to any given public speech and drama environment. Children also learn to assume diverse drama characters, project their voices, use their imagination, intonate and so much more
Excursions form a vital part of a child’s early education. They expose a child to a range of different experiences and enable them to gain a sense of the world in which they find themselves.
Our children benefit from a variety of outdoor play spaces. In addition to our playground, they experience the sand play area and home corner. The children have opportunities to take care and use the garden area all year round. This allows them to contribute and create beautiful green spaces around the school. They often run their classrooms outdoors to enjoy nature.
Our math curriculum comprises of different interactive activities, learning games, printable worksheets, assessments, and reinforcement. We let the children enjoy learning Math and working around numbers and concepts. Our Classrooms are filled with manipulatives and different teaching aids to make this possible.
A systematic and integrated literacy and reading program promotes language development in children. The program uses systematic, direct instruction that caters for all areas such as reading Fluency, spoken and written language, creative writing and comprehension skills.

Strong readers have high intellectual stamina

Reading also expands vocabulary, which improves those all-important test scores and leads to articulate speech, a lifelong skill that is valued in any career field.

Learn more about us
We believe that although children's development follows a predictable sequence, the development of one child is unique from another. And as children learn by building on the knowledge they already have – primarily exhibited through play, teachers help them learn by creating a rich environment to explore via exciting educational activities.
Teachers can then shape and build on that knowledge by discovering what children already know through observation, one-on-one conversation, clarification, and invitation to explore the world around them.
Discipline is critical in the growth of a child. This includes etiquette and grooming as much as it does building self esteem by providing an environment that radiates care, concern and safety.
Children learn through scaffolding in that they construct their own knowledge unlike adults for whom their environment shapes their learning. We like to work and play in attractive surroundings so our buildings are clean, relatively tidy, and pleasing to the eye.
Positive, Safe Environment led by Early Years Education Expert Gulbanu Suleman. At Meadows, we are committed to providing an uplifting and positive atmosphere for our children and staff; a fun learning experience in a secure, safe, and loving environment.
Leadership – We are committed to lead; developing, monitoring, and empowering our children and our staff to reach their full potential.
Excellence – We are committed to achieve the greatest levels of excellence in childcare, in education and in everything we do; being highly professional, innovative, creative, efficient, and effective.
Respect – We are committed to building strong, healthy relationships with each other, our children & their families, along with the community through communication and understanding of the cultures around us.
Integrity – We are committed to carry out our mission enshrined in our ethos - that of read (lectito), write (scribo), speak (dictio) and count (et numera). These four elements remind us each day of what the children ought to master as they pass through various levels of learning

Our inspiration for the game comes from the famous story Alice in Wonderland. Yes, we know we did not have live hedgehogs and flamingos, but we had the same amount of fun! We added a bit of our own spin to it. A game we would love to play over and over for sure.
