This is such a wonderful school, we can't recommend it enough! Our kids joined it at 18 months and went through the primary and lower elementary program. The teachers are so nice and caring! It is such a family atmosphere! The parents are also very nice and we've been very quickly integrated! The curriculum taught is very advanced and our children and much more advanced than other children of their age.
