Early Childhood Center
Gentle Beginnings
At our Early Childhood Center, children grow in a rhythm that honors the natural pace of childhood, guided with care in spaces that invite exploration, play, and discovery.
Where a Lifelong Love of Learning Begins
Inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, our Early Childhood Center nurtures curiosity, expression, and imagination in all their forms. In a warm and attentive environment, children feel seen, supported, and encouraged to explore their ideas.
Our spaces invite movement, play, and discovery, allowing children to express themselves in many ways as they engage with the world around them, developing confidence and a lifelong love of learning.
Our learners are empowered by choice as they engage with teachers, peers, parents, and the environment around them.
Reggio Emilia-Trained Teachers
The Early Childhood Center (ECC) is inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, which focuses on child-led, inquiry-based learning. This pedagogical method aligns perfectly with the guidelines of Base Nacional Comum Curricular (BNCC) for early childhood education, providing a holistic educational experience for our students.
Furthermore, all ECC teachers have undergone specialized training in Reggio Emilia, Italy, immersing themselves in its innovative educational approach.
Daily School-Home Communication
ECC promotes daily school-home communication through Toddle, ISC’s teaching and learning platform. Additionally, open communication with teachers is facilitated during student arrivals or departures.
Parents also receive two detailed Progress Reports each school year to stay informed about their child’s development, academic journey, and progress.
