At Rising Stride, we believe in developing a love of learning from an early age.
We believe in building a child’s confidence, enabling them to be a decision maker with the knowledge and resources to be influential in the world around them – now and into the future.
A child’s personality will emerge as a result of their environment at home, here at Rising Stride, and everywhere in between. At our centers we provide experiences that encourage learning and laughter – and in doing so help children develop lasting happiness, confidence and positivity.
Being offer industry leading education programs at every stage of the learning journey. Each program has been developed with thorough research and expert knowledge in the area of Early Education and Psychology. Not only do our programs meet the Early Childhood Framework set by the governing body – they push well beyond it.
Our programs are designed to promote inquisitive minds, teach practical and relevant lessons on exponential sciences and technologies, create an everyday love of numbers, and provide the space, tools and structure to bring each child’s imagination to life.
Programs that enriching each developmental milestone
Nursery: 3 moths – 1 year
In our nursery we maintain a small group, allowing maximum quality educator to child time. Our littlest stars have daily activities structured around individual interests that include developing gross motor skills, movement, color recognition, textures and touch with a huge emphasis on a warm, comforting environment, filled with love and care. Our favorite lessons during the week is music; which incorporates music and movement, stretches and visual story telling.
Toddler: 1 – 2 years
Our toddlers are at an age of change; they start to realize they have choices. It is an age of great brain development and often a time of challenges, like toilet training and separation anxiety. At Rising Stride we employ a higher staff to child ratio than required, to ensure children can develop a strong, reliable relationship with their educator. A large focus in the program at this age is dynamic interest led learning, and guiding children to discover a love of learning new things.
Every activity is tailored around having fun, maintaining interest and sparking curiosity. We read 2 -3 books a day to develop an interest in literacy and language, and provide organic experiences that develop fine motor and gross motor skills. Our teachers work with our children in small groups to create cognitive concepts with music, introducing seasons and colors into music and songs.
Preschool: 3 – 5 years
Our Preschoolers are offered an abundance of opportunity and learning environments with our industry leading education programs that include STEAM, PRELIT and Music, as well as an accelerated pre-school readiness program. Our extraordinary pre-school program will provide the best possible start for your child. Activities are culturally relevant, age-appropriate, and most importantly, interesting and fun. Weekly lesson plans include learning centers and small-group activities designed to promote: language and literacy, creative expression, math explorations, scientific inquiries, social development, and active movement.
