Kindergarten

Children’s early learning experiences have a profound effect on their development. Early learning experiences are crucial to the future well-being of children, and establish the foundation for the acquisition of knowledge and skills that will affect later learning and behaviour. We firmly believe that childhood should be full of fun and stress free. The Kindergarten programme at Dhruv Public School runs on Xseed, a scientifically designed programme for kindergarten schools successfully running in more than 50 schools. Xseed is an exceptional educational programme that introduces academics through activities which not only invigorate the mind of a child, but also boost independence, confidence and self esteem. The Xseed system enables children to capture their imagination, and offers them a learning environment where they can make discoveries, solve problems and think independently. A core belief at Dhruv Public School is that no single method of instruction is all comprehensive. Hence, we have come up with a Melting Pot Approach which uses both – traditional and progressive methods of instruction, to develop a well rounded curriculum that encourages social, academic and emotional growth of the child. Theme based teaching in a cohesive, practical and interactive method that makes our Kindergarten teaching the most sought after feature of our school. Themes are based on the learning achievements that are appropriate for young children and provide the foundation for successful future learning experiences. The themes are prepared by a strong team of researchers and educationists to meet the requirements of the smarter and more intelligent generation. The whole curriculum is divided into 10 different themes, and each themes lasts for almost a month. Home books are designed to reinforce the classroom learning. Apart from these basic Books, every level has additional books to enhance further learning. Because of theme based approach, the bag is very light as the student carries only a diary and two light workbooks. KG pro works on a concept of workbook, where it combines features of copy and book, so light bags make children happy. In a typical day at school a child will carry two books (one for Class & one for Home) and a school diary. After every 15 working days, set of books is replaced by next set of books, thereby covering ten themes in 150 days. Colourful classes, activity hall and other surroundings make a child comfortable and enthusiastic to learn more from day one. A lot of effort is made by our team of hardworking teachers and mentors to inculcate value based education in the most carefree and stress free environment, making sure that there is not much load, but productive learning happening all the way. There is no formal Examination. However, the teacher conducts oral and written assessments as a part of continuous assessment methodology during the course of the session; and the reports of the students will be based on these. The overall atmosphere provided to students in Kindergarten is pressure free and the kids are allowed to express themselves freely. We strongly believe in a knowledge-filled yet light and engaging way of functioning in Kindergarten and that is a precise approach we follow.
