In Petals' FLOWER, i.e. in Kindergarten, Petalians prepare to face the world after completing the last program of their education. They are
introduced to a well-planned, structured curriculum that will act as a perfect launch pad for Grade 1. The life lessons our students learn at this age equip them to
be balanced, morally upright, model citizens who are also analytically capable of handling unplanned life challenges.
At Petals' FLOWER, i.e. Kindergarten, a planned curriculum serves as the basis for nurturing the child.
The development of life skills and academic advancement are the key priorities that we follow. Petalians gain knowledge of complex mathematical concepts like "before,
after, and between" and sentence construction and advancement of the Hindi language. Our programmes are designed to address each child's specific needs. To guarantee
that the kids are equipped to be successful in everything, our facilitators give opportunities for exploration, questioning, and communication and create a pleasant
and encouraging environment.
Children begin to grasp the ideas of intellectualism, asking and answering open-ended questions, and most importantly, the idea of time. Each child is cared for
within the confines of a professionally created organized curriculum that fosters the development of a variety of abilities in children, including
musical, technological, numeracy, literacy/communication, life, and exploration skills.
Some of the activities are - connect time,
drawing, life cycle, dramatization, excursions, hopscotch, paper origami, dice fun, dig & find, experimentation, exploration, culmination, and
much more.
