The school is staffed by qualified teachers, carefully chosen with a variety of skills which complement the diversity of an Early Childhood Classroom. All parents are encouraged to participate in Field trips and class activities at any time and as often as they wish.

Developmentally appropriate early learning is accepted as one of the most effective ways of teaching young children and is practised world-wide. The main element of Early Learning is the stimulation of the senses of the child at the first and most important stage of development. By the provision of the correct environment, carefully structured with the correct equipment, the child is stimulated to want to learn and the result is that children leave Mountainview School extremely well prepared for Primary school in all basic disciplines.

For each child, our staff will introduce a programme of tuition which will be carried out partly in a group and partly on an individual basis. The progress of each child is monitored and records are kept. A report on each child's progress is made annually.

Extra-curricular activities

Each afternoon after lesson period we offer a variety of activities including music, singing, drama, cooking, skating, cycling, walking, learning basic ball skills for football, golf, basketball, softball and cricket. These activities add variety to the day and the children enjoy them enormously.

Mountainview Nursery / Day Care

Our experienced nursery teachers provide a stimulating, secure and caring environment for the children. The day is divided into sessions and a timetable of activities is adhered to so as to provide a structured, balanced day. The children are treated with respect by staff and are taught to respect others. Our policy is to be kind and patient whilst also being firm. The children therefore feel secure and cared for and as a result we have a very happy atmosphere.
