LEARNING BY CREATING CURIOSITY
“You can teach a student a lesson for a day;
but if you can teach him to learn by creating curiosity,
he will continue the learning process as long as he lives.”
-Clay P.Bedford
The above quote is one of the important philosophies behind VKids. By creating curiosity VKids believes that children will be supported in developing the knowledge, skills and understanding that help them to make sense of the world and therefore we, support their learning through offering opportunities for them to use a range of tools safely; encounter creatures, people, plants and objects in their natural environments and in real-life situations; undertake practical ‘experiments’; and work with a range of materials.
By creating curiosity, we challenge students to explore knowledge, to question facts upon finding them, to make responsible decisions and to approach learning with enthusiasm.
We try to extend children’s creativity by reinforcing their curiosity, exploration and play. They are given numerous opportunities to explore and share their thoughts, ideas and feelings, through a variety of art, music, dance, movement, imaginative and role-play activities, and design.
