Pre-Primary

Pre-Primary

The Pre-Primary School Programme at Mount Litera Zee School, Barh comprises Nursery, Junior KG and Senior KG.

Early childhood education serves as the foundation for all future learning. These are the formative years of learning which play a vital role in the life of a child.

The pre-primary curriculum is delivered through the ‘ILLUME’ approach based on the following premise:

  • Every child is unique
  • Every child has infinite potential
  • Every child is born with an innate desire to learn
  • Every child learns best through observation
  • Every child learns and constructs her own knowledge in multiple ways

The ‘ILLUME’ curriculum focuses on the milestones in the area of cognitive,linguistic, creative, social and physical development. The learning design leads a child to inquire and seek answers. Questions become the order of the day causing thinking and creativity to be the norms. A variety of experiential activities are planned for delivering themes based concepts. The curriculum provides numerous exposures to nurture sensory and gross motor skills, and also small muscle and large muscle activities for the physical development of children. To cater to educational needs of children, the school has multiple teaching aids like interesting audio-visual aids, interactive whiteboard, various toys and games for cognitive development and a series of teaching material for introducing concepts that build strong recognition among children.

The integrated method is holistic, child-centred with no compartmentalization of subjects. It seeks to give a complete experience to the child within the child’s range of experiences and understanding. This approach goes a long way towards shaping a wholesome and healthy personality and prepares each child for primary school.
