Gone are the days when pre-schools were run by untrained ladies in an unoccupied room, with a few tiny sober-coloured chairs and tables. Today, the phenomenon of pre-schooling has undergone a huge change. Now there is more space, fewer students, world-class facilities, and they offer modern teaching methodologies. Medhaam is one of the few pre-schools in the City that provides contemporary infrastructure while keeping in mind the need for personalised care and attention.
World-class facilities
Medhaam is the only pre-school in the City to offer Soft Gymnasium, Soft Play Zone, Creative Zone, Block and Construction Zone, Music, Dance and Story Zone, and Home and Imagination Zone. It also offers 24x7 CCTV surveillance, freshly cooked meals, safety gates, medical facilities, and e-learning facilities.
Children play in open green spaces and thus communicate with nature well. The outdoor play equipment includes slides, climbers, tree house, balance beams, swings, sandpit, bike track, and water fun area that challenge as well as support children’s attempts to explore and develop their skills and an auditorium to showcase their potential and talent.
Recently, Medhaam has introduced Tablab-based Learning for toddlers. Interestingly, through Tablab a child can learn in a fun way, with the help of games and other interactive digital medium. The technology truly makes a child smarter and the results can be seen within just two weeks.
Best Teaching Methodologies
The pre-school combines the best teaching methods from various philosophies so that kids can learn and have fun. The staff works on a philosophy that each child is unique and hence they encourage and allow every child to develop at his/her own pace, with lots of love and dedication. Lessons are given on individual basis or in small groups. This enables the teacher to discover more about child and his/her inner development. Not just teachers, but the whole staff is trained to ensure that every child receives individual care and attention.
A Home Away from Home, Medhaam is a place where children can have fun and make learning a joyful and exciting experience of their life.
