EARLY YEARS & PRIMARY
Empowering Young Minds, Nurturing Future Leaders
Pre-Junior Section (Class 1 – 2) — Building strong foundational literacy, STEAM-driven curiosity, and confidence in a safe, value-based environment for our young girls.
OUR METHODOLOGY
Our Approach
At HGS, we believe that all children are born learners, and that quality early childhood education should always support a child’s natural learning capabilities. Up until the age of seven, children’s minds are incredibly open to all kinds of learning, operating like a sponge to soak up information about their environment. Young children learn best by interacting with the world around them, while slightly older children learn by questioning everything they see.
At the HGS Pre-Primary Section, we provide children with rich opportunities to explore in ways that supplement their natural learning tendencies. By engaging your child’s five senses in educational play and encouraging their natural curiosity, we set a strong foundation for your child’s future in education.

Head Teacher’s Welcome Message
“
Our mission has always been to form an engaging learning community. We do this by taking care of the children, giving support to the parents at home and by providing guidance and training to our faculty. Our early childhood program is a unique model to develop valuable skills that are essential for a child’s growth. Our curriculum and academic endeavors are based on the knowledge of child development, focused on three things primarily; respecting the dignity, worth, and uniqueness of each individual, appreciating and supporting close ties between the child and the family, and helping children achieve their full potential, specifically in the context of relationships that are based on trust, respect, and positive regard.
Over the years, we have ensured a safe, stimulating environment that we believe is appropriate for children to socialize, emote, and express themselves fully. Seeing that times are drastically changing; we have been quick to adapt to the new strategies needed to maintain our vision and take it forward. We have successfully integrated increased use of technology in our curriculum whilst maintaining student-teacher and teacher-parent bond. To communicate, educate, and partner with families, we have been using various applications and online software to conduct orientations, trainings, conferences, and fun activities to bring our school to each child’s home.
Early Childhood Education doesn’t end with creating a good curriculum and strong community building methods, it is a medium through which children are trained to think creatively, hone their talents, develop new skills, and design a better world. We invite you to join us on this journey.
