Curriculum
Paddington's primary goal is to provide a dynamic, integrated curriculum in an engaging, experiential environment that nurtures and builds upon each child's natural curiosity and love of learning.
Our program integrates singing, dancing, musical instruments, storytelling, puppets and reading. Other activities foster the exploration of nature, science, math, art, history, sensory experiences, literacy and culture.
At Paddington we offer an environment that celebrates the importance of play. Our approach encourages children to learn and discover through play. The result is children freely explore and develop communication, fantasies, language skills, problem solving, expression of feelings, divergent and creative thinking.
In each classroom, we offer children a broad range of developmentally-appropriate activities, experiences and learning materials from which to choose. Through their individual choices and hands-on activities, the children direct their own learning. Our teachers act as facilitators in the learning process, helping the children discover their own interests.
