At Petals' BUD, i.e. Nursery, we aim to make our Petalians real thinkers who learn to taste a bit of independence in their way. We believe that learning is a proactive, experienced process that calls for active confrontation with one's surroundings and self. The lifelong learning process is built on three fundamental pillars: active inquiry, joyful learning, and the fortitude to overcome various obstacles. Our caring and experienced facilitators are dedicated to providing a rich and nurturing environment that will prepare our Petalians in Nursery to follow a formal curriculum in the coming years.
In Petals' BUD, i.e. Nursery Our Petalians learn to choose what to draw and create with their toys and decide when to visit the washroom. Additionally, they are taught the importance of listening, sharing, and cooperating when working in a group. Through monthly themes, early literacy is introduced to foster the reading, writing, and reasoning abilities necessary for this age group to reach developmental goals. Blocks and other building items encourage critical thinking, while crafts and outdoor play foster creativity and gross and fine motor development. However, role-playing games expand their level of creativity.
Some activities include connecting time, phonics, camouflage, pretend play, dramatization, hopping on the numbers, finding the correct vocabulary, drawing, STEAM activities, treasure hunts, excursions, culmination, and much more that takes Petalians’ imagination to another level.
