Slogan Mind, Body, and Spirit
Goals It is our aim to celebrate and nurture the individuality of each child and to provide an environment from which happy and balanced future citizens of the world will emerge; truly international people whose characters reflect the qualities of respect, caring, honesty, and responsibility—qualities that are carefully woven into the fabric of our curriculum. We hope children will embrace cultural diversity, develop an understanding and respect for all people, and be comfortable with those from other countries. We want them to learn the importance of caring for others and develop a well-balanced body and mind. Our comprehensive curriculum will help to give them the sensitivity and confidence to behave with integrity and honesty and to use their English abilities in a responsible way.
