Talented teachers collaborate with parents to nurture children into respectful, confident and joyful learners.
The Goddard School uses Wonder of Learning curriculum which is an eduational approach driven by play-based, child-led experiences that promote children's natural curiosity and wonder.
The Goddard School's Wonder of Learning (WOL) was developed with early childhood education experts, provides the best childhood preparation for social and academic success. WOL is the base-line used for all schools where we then add lessons developmentally/educationally challenging for the children in each classroom to make it their own.
