How we do this
Cambridge International Pre-School (CIPS)This is how children learn. They do not learn by sitting before a teacher who imparts knowledge. They learn by doing and self-directing! And they succeed in the future by learning to love school. Their delight and spontaneous wonder will always be our first priority.
