Little Life is an Independent Christian Pre-Primary School registered with the Department of Education. We have developed our own curriculum and ensure that the work covered will get our children ready for the local government and private schools in our area when they leave us to start Grade 1.
Our curriculum is a combination of Grade 1 requirements, Christian Curriculum (adapted from a South African based curriculum), Singapore Maths for Grade R and Occupational Therapy techniques, an outdoor approach, as well as small programs used in conjunction with the above.
Providing opportunities for our children to build firm foundations in every area of their lives.
The various areas we aim to lay these firm foundations for the children are:
Their Relationship with God
Their Educational Experiences
Their Emotional and Physical Development
Their Relationships within their Family, Social Environment, Church and Community
We aim to accomplish our vision and mission through a daily programme which is centered on outdoor experiences and learning through nature and play, within firm and healthy boundaries. The programme will be fun and enjoyable while still providing opportunities for daily growth in all the above-mentioned areas.
