St. Anne's School

Early Years

First steps with purpose

In Early Years at St. Anne's, we build the foundations for holistic education from age 4. We promote a safe, caring, and stimulating environment that supports each child's cognitive, emotional, motor, social, and spiritual development through exploration, play, and early immersion in English.

Our approach

We support the first years of learning with meaningful experiences, clear routines, and an environment where every child feels safe to explore.

Bilingualism from the start

Strong immersion in English from age 4 while continuing to develop Spanish.

Learning through play

Play is the main tool for exploring, imagining, and building understanding.

Expression and creativity

Art, music, and movement workshops encourage communication and enjoyment.

A caring atmosphere

A setting of trust, respect, and support where every child feels secure.

Values from an early age

Respect, empathy, and teamwork are part of daily classroom life.

Exploring the environment

Meaningful learning grows from curiosity, surroundings, and direct experience.

Early Years

Two programmes designed to support children's progressive development and adaptation to school life.

K4 - Kinder 4 (age 4)

Morning classes in English, gradual introduction to the extended day, and a playful, expressive, and emotional approach.

Morning

Monday, Wednesday, and Friday: 7:45 to 12:00.

Extended day

Tuesday and Thursday: 7:45 to 15:30.

Pre-Primary (age 5)

The yearly rhythm supports adaptation, institutional celebrations, and the closing of learning processes.
