An Early Years education can accelerate a child’s future learning. The Reggio Emilia approach is an educational philosophy based on gently encouraging children to become the best they can be. Le Chalet works closely with the Foundation Stage to guarantee a smooth transition from our crèche to the school and has designed a dynamic programme of creative education.
We welcome children from a broad international community. It helps children to have a better understanding of the world. Plus, bilingual infants and toddlers show more creativity, better conflict resolution and problem solving than monolingual children.
The Chalet activities are adapted to suite the age of the children, allowing them to explore their potential within a secure environment.
Alternating between structured activities and informal time encourages your child to develop their creativity, imagination, and attention, as well as various intellectual and motor functions Simple and enjoyable activities stimulate your child and help to develop their confidence through embracing new experiences
