Summerhill International School is currently accepting applications for its kindergarten program, which will enter its second year in 2011.
The kindergarten program aims to fully prepare children for the demands of first grade, and maintains high expectations not only for the children’s academic achievement, but also for their social development.
Through the use of a balanced, multi-sensory curriculum that includes the development of literacy skills, mathematics, science, social studies, computer studies, art, movement, music, and drama, students will leave the program as enthusiastic, active learners.
The curriculum has been created to encourage students towards becoming life-long and active participants in their learning. Students are actively engaged at all times while in the classroom.
Summerhill’s kindergarten program started last year, and has seen much success from first-year students. For more information see http://www.summerhill.jp.
