EDUCATIVE OFFER
From Nursery to 9th grade. We integrate the arts in the learning process and promote exchanges between cycles.
NURSERY
Because we believe in the power that the arts have in the development of the individual, we ensure an early contact of the child. From nursery to 2 years old, all students have weekly English, dance, music and plastic expression activities. Sensory stimuli play a fundamental role in the initial formation of the human being, so we involve our students in an environment of emotions, visual, auditory and kinesthetic stimuli. From the age of 2, children also have gymnastics in their weekly routine.
PRE-SCHOOL EDUCATION
Valuing the individuality and personality of each student, the College offers educational conditions that allow them to fully develop their potential, preparing them to face the unprecedented challenges of the future.
Art, understood as the engine of learning, involves students weekly through theater, dance and music classes as well as visual arts activities and concerts, integrated into projects in the fields of language, mathematics, science, motor expression and of personal and social training.
All 3, 4 and 5 year olds have English classes.
1 STAGE
In the 1st cycle, active learning is valued, with the student at the center of the process.
The core curricular areas (Portuguese Language, Mathematics and Study of the Environment) are worked in partnership with the arts as a pedagogical tool and for initiation into disciplinary areas such as music, painting, dance and theater. Physical Education, ICT – Information and Communication Technologies and citizenship are also part of the 1st Cycle curriculum. The science component of Middle Study and the teaching of English as a second language are based on the international curriculum according to the Cambridge Assessment.
