JUNIOR PROGRAM
JUNIOR STEM
EDUCATION IN TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO
We enroll students who are two and a half years old into our Junior STEM program.
​
When your child is enrolled in our programs, learning for them is seamless and is led by the child's sense of wonder, curiosity and innate ability to construct meaning through play and exploration. We are a guide, creating opportunities for child directed discovery.
​Our goals when planning STEAM activities for younger children, are to create a safe environment for children to explore using their senses and to create natural learning experiences, that led to discovery and inquiry. The activities in this program and provocations, are developed to fan that natural curiosity in your toddlers.
​
Our Junior and Preschool programs operate from 8:30 AM to 2:00 PM
After care is available until 3:30PM
​
Gates are opened at 7:20AM
​
In our Junior STEM program, the children are discovering the concepts of language and literacy development, social and emotional development, physical development and wellness, cognitive development and creative expression.
Children are encouraged to use their 5 senses to describe what they see and observe during the day. We ask questions to build critical thinking skills, such as;
-
How does it feel?
-
What does it look like?
-
What does it smell like?
-
What do you hear?
-
How does it taste?
​
​
At the Junior Preschool age, we cultivate a love for STEM by encouraging children to be curious and ask questions.
