The Early Years at Golden Foundation School
At the Nursery level, the curriculum we use is the Early Years Foundation Scheme (EYFS). We blend this with the Montessori approach of play-based learning. We also engage the children in a fun-based learning tool of i-Maths — a brain development tool which enhances their critical thinking ability.
Given the delicate nature of the foundational education of children, Golden Foundation School has adopted the Early Years Foundation Scheme blended with the Montessori instructional methodology to create a learning experience that inspires curiosity and a life-long passion for learning in our learners. The children are taken through literacy, numeracy and discovery lessons. Our activity-based lessons give the children the opportunity to actively participate in class.
The teachers observe and respond appropriately to children’s needs based on the awareness of how children develop and learn.
Our curriculum enables children to progress towards the Seven Areas of Learning
- ✓Personal, Social and Emotional Development
- ✓Communication and Language
- ✓Literacy
- ✓Mathematics
- ✓Knowledge and understanding of the world
- ✓Physical Development
- ✓Expressive Art and Design
Learning beyond the classroom
Field trips
Teachers plan the learning environment and activities to provide the children with the opportunity to develop competencies and skills. The children embark on field trips to acquire more insights into a particular theme being addressed in class — places like the airport, lake, zoo, farm, supermarkets, hotels and restaurants.
Golden Foundation School’s Nursery education provides the solid foundation needed for the Primary programme.
