Kindergarten

Welcome to The Foundation Years at Our Own English High School Sharjah

The foundational years of a child are a time of both incidental as well as nurtured cognitive development – all under the context of a warm, fun filled environment. Experiential learning, that helps children cultivate inter-personal skills and a strong educational base, serves as the corner stone of the kindergarten syllabus.

The Kindergarten programme has been specifically designed to provide students with the opportunity to learn and explore through the use of inquiry and discovery, promoting a curriculum that fosters the School Vision, GEMS Philosophy and international mindedness thus making it the ideal curriculum for our students. The children are prepared for the journey of life-long learning through a curriculum designed with units that foster learning and multi-sensory experiences. The focus of Kindergarten activities is to develop skills that lay a strong foundation for future learning. Apart from being comprehensive, the curriculum is also very practical and stresses the importance of experimenting and experiencing in order to develop the overall personality of the child.
