OUR PHILOSOPHY

THE BEANSTALK ACADEMY’S
philosophy is based on a “developmental” approach to learning. All children grow and develop at their own pace and at their own time. 

THE BEANSTALK ACADEMY provides a wide range of activities that are well planned and stimulate the child’s curiosity to explore, experiment and develop an awareness of self and his environment. Our philosophy is based on planned activities, routine, structure, respect for others, limits and a wide range of curriculum concepts that are age appropriate. Our philosophy is stressed through the programs provided each day and students are encouraged to be themselves and guided to be individual thinkers and make positive choices. 

The Beanstalk Academy provides a full day and half day Nursery School and a full day Kindergarten program. The full day Kindergarten program is an accelerated program with a pre-screening process, required before acceptance to the program.
