We have a deep commitment to developing the whole child and maintaining a balanced curriculum where children’s personal development is absolutely prioritised. 

‘‘Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember. Involve me and I learn.’’

Benjamin Franklin

We provide an extensive and balanced curriculum which is vital for stimulating young, enquiring minds and which gives equal opportunity for the musician, artist or sportsman to become as valued as a linguist or scientist.

“Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.”

Maimonides

Our Prep curriculum evolves each year to reflect the changing developmental needs of our pupils. We utilise the key skills of discovery, application and communication to explore each subject area and provide opportunities for children to practice problem solving and collaborative learning.

“Opportunities are like sunrises. If you wait too long, you miss them.’’

William Arthur Ward

We place a strong emphasis on enriching our curriculum to extend the academic, artistic and physical elements of learning. Extracurricular opportunities are offered at many levels and help our pupils to extend their learning and acquire essential life and people skills which cannot be acquired from the classroom environment alone.

“Let's go invent tomorrow instead of worrying about what happened yesterday.’’

Steve Jobs

In our celebrated Design Technology department, inventive ideas are nurtured and pupils relish finding solutions to challenging design projects. With careful support, our children gain confidence in making their ideas a reality.

“No bird soars too high if he soars with his own wings''.

William Blake

We have excellent experience in guiding and supporting pupils through their transition to senior school. By helping them develop confidence, self-awareness and empathy, they leave us as well-rounded and resilient children prepared for the journey ahead.
