Arabic: Arabic language is taught to children aged three plus twice a week. This includes greetings, colours, shapes and simple vocabulary and songs.

3.Problem Solving , Reasoning and Numeracy:
Mathematical understanding is introduced through practical activities such as stories, songs and games and through counting, sorting and matching. Number and value recognition are taught well as shapes and measurement and simple mathematical language.

Children learn how the world around them works through direct experience. We encourage the children to explore, observe and ask questions and make choices during play and organized theme based activities. Educational computer games and outings help reinforce their experience.

5.Physical development :
Being active is a normal part of a young child's world. A variety of physical games help your child's develop coordination, control and manipulation and help build their self confidence.

6.Creative development:
Creativity is developed through art and craft activities, daily music sessions through dance and role play.

Each child receives an end of term report and a portfolio as a lasting reminder of their pre-school experience and special occasions. This includes precious artwork and photographs taken of different activities during school year.
