The goal of Meraki Early Learning Centre is to provide a stimulating environment where children can develop physical, social, emotional, intellectual, and creative skills in a caring, loving, and home like atmosphere.

The child will be given many opportunities for physical development. The children will learn how to use their body effectively: climbing, sliding etc. Large balls and use of outdoor playgrounds will help develop gross motor skills. Puzzles, finger painting, play dough, threading beads, using pencils; crayons and brushes will help their fine motor skills.

The program will enable the child to grow socially. They will learn to communicate with and respond to adults and other children outside his/her immediate family circle. They will learn to share, wait for their turn, to become self-reliant and to become considerate of others. The child will be encouraged to be responsible for his/her own belongings and to take their part in maintaining a tidy room.

The child will learn to recognize, accept and express feelings, learn to cope with frustration, express anger appropriately, give and receive attention. They will also be able to develop independence, and make decisions, develop awareness and respect for the feelings of others and continue developing a positive self-image, which contributes to their emotional growth.

We will provide plenty of opportunities for intellectual growth. Language skills are developed as the child communicates with one another and with the teachers. Re-telling stories, learning rhymes, songs and finger plays require concentration and a retentive memory. Listening skills are developed at story time. Concepts related to numbers, space and time are also developing through weekly theme's activities.

Creative development is also emphasized. The child is encouraged to use imagination and materials in a novel and many ways. The child also is encouraged to give more than one answer to a question and find more then one solution to a problem.

"Learning through play", philosophy will help the child grow towards knowing themselves as well as the world around them.
