Threes & Fours Program
Our Threes & Fours Program builds on early learning foundations with a focus on pre-literacy, numeracy, and social-emotional development. Children aged 3 to 4 years engage in collaborative projects, phonics readiness activities, and emotional intelligence exercises. We foster independence, problem-solving, and a love of learning that prepares them for the final preschool year.
