How learning happens
at The Village Schoolhouse
At The Village Schoolhouse, learning is a journey that shapes not just minds, but hearts and character.
Learning is more than academics. It’s about fostering essential life skills and values that shape confident, capable, and compassionate individuals. Here are the ways we support children’s development and building life skills.
Pro-social behaviours
Children learn to engage positively with others through verbal and physical interactions. They develop empathy, cooperation, and problem-solving skills, enabling meaningful connections with peers and adults.
Collaboration
By working together, children learn the value of cooperation, respect for diversity, fairness, active listening, and meaningful discussion—building a strong sense of unity and friendship.
Confidence
We encourage curiosity and a spirit of exploration, giving children the courage to take risks, try new things, and embrace learning with enthusiasm.
Resilience and perseverance
Mistakes are opportunities for growth. We foster a mindset that embraces challenges, learns from failures, and builds self-reliance and high self-esteem.
Compassion
We cultivate empathy, kindness, and respect, ensuring children grow into thoughtful and considerate individuals.
Creativity and innovation
Every child is unique. We inspire originality, imagination, and curiosity, nurturing their ability to think outside the box and express themselves dynamically.
Critical thinking
Through inquiry and reflection, children develop the ability to analyze, evaluate, and solve problems, using creativity and open-ended exploration to deepen their understanding.
