Kindergarten

Our kindergarten focuses on academic and personal growth in every student. The kindergarten program cultivates independence and a passion for learning, building a strong foundation in literacy and the arts. The small class size and supportive environment create a lifelong learning experience for the students. The learning is based on the activities and tasks conducted by students. The role of teacher is more of a guide than the instructor.

The age group for Kindergarten

  • Students after completing three years are eligible to join Nursery for their first year of school.
  • The second year will be the JKG (Junior Kindergarten) age group of 4–5 years.
  • The third year, or the final year, is SKG (Senior Kindergarten) from the age of 5–6 years. After completion of this stage, they will be upgraded to grade one.

Elementary/Primary

Where Young Learners Thrive

The age to start elemenray school is 6+, and our elementary school program is designed to do more than just teach, it’s about building a strong foundation for lifelong learning while helping each child grow as a person and develop important social-emotional skills.

In Grades 1 to 3, we believe learning should feel like an adventure, not a chore. That’s why we focus on hands-on, activity-based learning instead of endless memorization. Our younger students have a lighter schedule with just four classes a day, giving them plenty of time to explore, create, and discover. This approach helps them build confidence naturally while keeping their curiosity alive. When students move to Grades 4 and 5, things get a bit more structure academically, but still engaging. With five classes a day, we strike a balance between academics and personal growth.

The core subjects for elementary are English, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, Nepali, Japanese, and ICT. But we also make sure they’re developing the soft skills that really matter: critical thinking, group work, self-management and expressing themselves effectively.

Learning doesn’t stop when the bell rings, though. We’ve packed the calendar with experiences that make school life rich and memorable; weekly outdoor, clebrating festivals, cultural celebrations that honor our heritage, academic tours that take learning beyond the classroom, dance classes, karate training, art and craft class, yoga and meditation sessions, and chances for students to present their ideas to others. These aren’t just “extras”, they’re essential parts of growing up.

Our goal? To make sure every child leaves elementary school not just academically prepared, but truly ready for life; confident, responsible, and excited about whatever comes next.
