What can you share with us about the child care system in Colombo ?
Many classrooms are set up in an open style. Learning in our centers takes place through the senses, repeated use of hands on material and interaction with others.
Lessons are given as small groups or individual to work independently. Not only educational activities but also videos, hand work, singing and storytelling are done accordingly. Students increase their own knowledge through individual or teacher initiated experience, in an inquisitive and cooperative atmosphere therefore the kid develops a natural caring attitude towards all people.
