About Us

We have a passion for excellence and innovation in preschool education. At the Makoons Preschool, have over 10 years of collective experience in establishing nurseries tailored to the individual needs, talents, abilities and interests of each child.

We hold a fundamental belief about the importance of education and its ability to nurture the development of intelligence through a unique curriculum encompassing music, arts, science, technology, literacy, numeracy and physical exploration.

Our children have composed and performed their operas, held exhibitions of their own art and have been successful in entering appropriate primary schools in the continuance of their life-long learning journeys.

Most importantly, our children develop self-confidence and an understanding of their needs, who they are and how to become compassionate and responsible members of social groups. Our staff are knowledgeable, dedicated and enthusiastic, and provide a warm, loving environment for your child.

Our Goal

Makoons Preschool goal is to respond to the call of creating the emerging leaders of tomorrow. We are committed to impacting a synergy of skills, knowledge, and values in our little children to lend them their inner voice for the 21st century.

We envision today’s children as tomorrow’s leadership icons. We have impacted a milestone departure from the teacher-led to the child-centric. Our learning environment enables each child to realize their unique learning style, while our futuristic methodology helps our children to discover their own creative and aesthetic potential.

Philosophy

For us, the human rights of a child are non-negotiable.

Driven by our ethos of “What’s Right for the Child” (WRFC), we place the human rights of a child at a premium. The right to trust, the right to gain respect, and the right to live in an abuse-free world are what shapes our fundamental cult and ethos.

Our school functions in the spirit of a family – a home away from home where the children feel happy and comfortable. Since the home experience and the school experience should not be isolated from one another, open communication and cooperative exchange between home and school are essential. “The parents and teachers each hold jigsaw pieces which when coming together generate a more complete picture”. Thus, together we can help each child develop to his or her full potential.
