PICT's Nestling Preschool

The Nestling Preschool – Nursery to Sr.Kg.

A child's major development takes place in the first 5 years of life. These are the formative years that shape the child's future health, growth, social and emotional development, motor skills and learning at school.

Teaching Methodology

We adopt the 'Learning by doing' and 'Active Learning' teaching pedagogies at the Nestling Preschool. This ensures that the curriculum is imparted in a way that the learners are engaged in exploring the world around them at their pace which makes learning memorable and fun. At this stage, the emphasis is on developing their gross motor and fine motor skills through a wide range of manipulative activities. They build on their social, emotional and physical skills apart from pre-language and pre-numeracy skills. Field trips and outdoor activities are mapped to the curriculum to enhance the learning experience for the young learners.

Development Areas

They are given opportunities which aim to develop:

  1. Aesthetic and creative expression

  2. Discovery of the world

  3. Language and literacy

  4. Motor skills development

  5. Numeracy

  6. Personal, social and emotional development
