Our philosophy
At Les Petits Gaulois, we believe that child's preschool years will be the best years of his life. That is why we aim to provide the best education and atmosphere so coming to school every day is a real pleasure.
We aim to provide quality preschool programs with the support of our highly qualified and dedicated Principal and teachers who make a difference in the lives of the children and families under our care. We constantly challenge our little minds to shape the best of their future.
CORE VALUES
Curiosity - Our students become active participants in their world rather than mere observers of it.
Creativity - Childhood is a time to get away from the obvious, safe, and expected, and produce something new. We encourage our children to think independently as this is the basis of creativity.
Confidence - Being confident means having the ability to figure things out. We provide many opportunities for our children to practice their analytical and critical thinking skills.
Continuity – Instead of telling them what to think, we engage the minds of our students to sort out their own reactions and articulate them through the medium at hand. We prepare them to take on new challenges and adapt to new environments.
At Les Petits Gaulois, every child will acquire life’s essential skills, be motivated to explore and stretch his or her imagination and given a strong foundation for future learning so that he or she may realize his or her fullest potential. He or she will also be encouraged to grow into thinking, self-assured and creative individuals amidst a warm and homely atmosphere. We also have heartwarming traditions including family days, picnics, field trips, performances, cultural celebrations
OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH PARENTS
The bond between home and school is a strong one at Les Petits Gaulois. Believing that parents, teachers, principals and even support staff are partners in facilitating the growth and development of our children, we work hand-in-hand with one another to strongly encourage open communication. Many avenues for information dissemination, feedback and open dialogue about your child’s education are provided.
Each child that begins at Les Petits Gaulois will receive a login to our school internet platform for his parents and teachers to communicate with each other. It can be used to relay messages, ask questions, give feedback and make suggestions.
At Les Petits Gaulois, parents are encouraged to be involved in their children’s learning adventures with us. Activities for the whole family are held throughout the year such as Carnivals, Exhibitions and Level Concerts. At the end of each week, each Toddler to K2 child will also take home a Weekly Curriculum and Event Update that has been meticulously prepared by his class teachers (French and English) to give parents an overview of what has been covered during the week, including lyrics to new songs learnt, printed pictures, drawings... Parents can then share in their child’s learning experiences and reinforce what their child has learnt. The weekly overview will also be published on a weekly basis on Les Petits Gaulois internet platform. With the login, each member of the child family or friends can see what their little lovely ones are doing at school.
