KSNAS Nursery

CURRICULUM SUMMARY

At Kings’, we do things differently and our talented nursery team is no exception, tailoring the British Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum to provide a personalised, child-led learning experience for each and every child in our care, helping them to lay the foundations for a successful future. Our teachers plan and provide effective learning opportunities for children from the age of two, centred on playing and exploring, active learning, and creative and critical thinking. Everything we do is based around developing unique children who have individual learning characteristics. We know that children learn best when they are having fun and when they feel safe and secure. Through our play-based and explorative environments, which extend and challenge their learning, children grow at their own pace, guided by highly qualified professionals. Children develop their curiosity, communication and language skills, think scientifically, fine-tune their motor skills, enjoy stories, sing, dance, draw, flourish creatively, and develop their physical abilities through hands-on and meaningful learning experiences, all of which relate to real life.

Delivering the British curriculum within the unique context of the UAE enables us to embrace and celebrate Islamic values and awareness for Emirati culture in a developmentally appropriate way, so that the children learn about the country in which they live.

FUTURE FOUNDATIONS

At Kings’ Nursery Nad Al Sheba, we lay the first foundations for future academic success within the Kings’ family. During their earliest years, children form attitudes about learning that will last a lifetime. Children who receive the right support and encouragement during their nursery years will be creative and adventurous learners throughout their lives.

Our role as educators is to prepare the children in our care for a world of possible careers, some of which may not even exist yet. They each have the potential to become future doctors, politicians, artists, authors, athletes, dentists, ecologists, chefs, accountants, scientists, astronauts, teachers, botanists. There are no limits to what they can dream and achieve. The way we teach our children ensures that, whichever path they wish to take in the future, their foundations will be secure. We encourage them to be highly involved, motivated and focussed individuals who go on to become little leaders of their own learning.
