At The Exploratorium Nursery School our mission is to provide a quality, comprehensive early childhood environment for nurturing and facilitating the growth and development of young explorers.
At The Exploratorium Nursery School our philosophy is based on the idea that learning should be an adventure and explorers grow and develop when given opportunities to explore, create and problem solve with materials that are appropriate for his or her age and development. We can do all things through play. We will provide opportunities for social, emotional, intellectual and physical growth. The role of the teacher is to facilitate the explorer’s growth and development by building and constructing new knowledge with a clear understanding of each child's current development. School readiness is of utmost importance, we practice letter formation, letter recognition, pencil control etc.
We are a small private school, that has the capacity for around 35 explorers and We are honoured and privileged to accept the trust your family has placed in us to guide and enrich your child’s early childhood experiences.
