Grade Zero

In Grade 0, children aged 6 develop natural curiosity while building strong academic and social foundations. Guided by the Polish curriculum where English is learned through engaging subjects and play-based exploration, our youngest learners grow in independence, creativity, and emotional readiness.

Early development of reading, writing, and numeracy skills ensures a confident and smooth transition into Primary education.

Immersion in English

Children discover English through captivating stories, cheerful songs, and interactive conversations. They build confidence, expand their vocabulary, and develop natural communication skills while enjoying every moment of learning in a playful, supportive environment.

Genius Hour (Grades 0 - 3) Mindfulness School of Diplomacy

Genius Hour (Grades 0 - 3)

In Genius Hour, children learn by following their own curiosity. They choose a topic they love and become little explorers, working alone or with friends to ask questions and find answers with their teacher's help.

 

They then share their exciting discoveries with the class. Through hands-on activities like building, creating and experimenting, they develop essential skills like how to plan, work in a team and solve problems in creative ways.

Mindfulness

In our mindfulness classes, children learn about their feelings and how to find a sense of calm. They practice simple techniques like calming breathing, noticing how their body feels, and imagining a peaceful, safe place.

 

These exercises help them understand their emotions, improve their focus and feel settled, even in a busy classroom. This builds important skills for listening, cooperating with others and managing big feelings in a healthy way.

School of Diplomacy

In our School of Diplomacy, children learn to share their feelings, listen to others, and solve disagreements kindly. Through games and role-playing, they build empathy, confidence and practice working together with their peers.

 

These lessons help children understand their own emotions and the feelings of others. They learn to build positive friendships and express themselves in a safe and constructive way.
