Curriulum

At LAMIS, we encourage all our students to develop through learning and an inquiry-based process, attributes and traits that will enable them to become lifelong learners.

We believe that curriculum is, in its broadest sense, each and every learning opportunity that a child experiences in a day, both planned and incidental.

This belief is influenced by:

  • Recent developments in brain research, supporting the benefits of early stimulation and the significance of supported play as a medium for learning
  • Socio-cultural theories outlining the importance of learning with and from others, both peers and adults, as well as attributing significance to the context in which learning occurs
  • The development of the whole child and the associated significance of integrated learning, ie. that children are social, physical and cognitive beings who learn in holistic ways – not through segmented subject knowledge, but rather a trans-disciplinary approach to learning, spanning the subject areas.
  • A world-wide concern as to the loss of childhood as valued and essential time in our human development.
