Imagination is sparked by the arts. Observing a young infant immersed in a creative activity reveals a brain that is active and motivated by aesthetics and emotions in search of meaning, expression, and representation.
The art and craft period is a critical time for a child’s development, and our ART curriculum focuses on the maturation of the child’s fine motor abilities at this time.
This stage is crucial because it prepares a kid to realise his or her full creative potential in later years, which shows up in the child’s academic performance.
Cultivating Aesthetic Awareness and Global Cultural Engagement
The development of one’s aesthetic sensibilities, along with those of one’s body, mind, and spirit, are all aided by exposure to the visual arts in the classroom.
It offers them a chance to learn about and participate in cultures all across the world. Students’ natural inventiveness and curiosity must be directed towards useful ends.
All of the educators in this curriculum have a strong sense of camaraderie and are committed to the transdisciplinary sculpture at the program’s center.
