Curriculum
If you happen to be here at one of those magic moments when a child’s cognitive evolution has taken a giant leap forward, you might just see Math pirouetting to Mozart, Art whirling with Astronomy, Physics partying with Proust, and a roomful of children from a diversity of cultures playing with Robotics like they were the greatest toys they’ve ever seen! ELC’s approach fosters the growth of each child, promoting innovative thinking and collaborative research skills, which provides a strong foundation for high school programmes globally. School Tour
