Junior And Regular Programmes
Junior Programme (Ages 4–6)
The Junior Programme follows the same weekly themes as the main programme, with activities adapted to be age-appropriate in terms of content, pacing, and delivery. Activities are designed to support early development through structured play, guided exploration, and simplified concepts, ensuring students can engage meaningfully with each theme at an appropriate level.
Regular Programme (Ages 7–16)
The Regular Programme delivers a balanced mix of practical activities, structured learning, and real-world connections, allowing students to explore each weekly theme in greater depth while building confidence, creativity, and understanding.
