Kangaroo Kids - (Private)
|
When subjects are taught in isolation only through the textbooks, the content coverage is shallow and focused on straight jacketed facts. Most of the content is memorized or learnt by rote. Most rote learnt material in text is delivered without experiences, context, or application. Rote learnt information is largely stored in the short-term memory and quickly forgotten. Information that is not integrated and related to previous experiences is discarded and replaced with the next piece of information. To us that is a waste of a child’s childhood and learning possibilities. It is also not an enjoyable and engaging learning experience for children. Quality education is the right of all children. Our vision is to create schools and learning environments that exist and operate programmes for all individual learners allowing them opportunities to reach their potential.

Our InfrastructureKangaroo Kids has put together a strong and diligent team of teachers, centre directors, and curriculum programmers.
Our Curriculum team is dedicated to creating exciting teaching resources, detailed curriculum and the training of teaching staff. The curriculum and methodology is constantly updated to keep pace with changes in educational research.
Equipment is also updated and upgraded in order to implement the changes that occur in the curriculum. Apart from the material designed in-house specifically to suit our programs, Kangaroo Kids also imports a large range of commercially produced resources and manipulative equipment.
Our Centres
Our centres are vibrant and learner friendly, well equipped with requisite facilities essential for a child's healthy growth and development. Each centre follows certain specifications laid down by Kangaroo Kids, as it is imperative to maintain the quality and uniformity across the board.
Concept Development
Our teaching methodology is based on the undisputed premise that children enjoy learning through Play, hands-on activities and social interaction. Kangaroo Kids formulates the teaching of concepts through activities, songs and games and a variety of practical experiences through which children can explore and learn about the world around them.
Formal Work Preparation
Reading is the foundation for all learning, if a child is successful in reading all other learning becomes easier. Skilled reading is a complex process requiring us to do many things at once and is based on a firm foundation in phonological awareness, knowledge between sounds and letters as well as visual memory. Kangaroo Kids has evolved a multi-sensory reading program that keeps in mind that children learn through all their senses. A wide variety of exciting activities also help children acquire pre-reading and reading skills.
Mathematical Concepts
Wide ranges of activities are built into the program to provide children with meaningful experiences in problem solving, number usage and a practical application of initial number concepts. Our Maths programs allow for hands-on exploration, active investigation & the use of manipulatives.
Field Trips
Since children learn best through direct experiences, Kangaroo Kids organises opportunities for children to learn by seeing, feeling and doing. Through these experiences, children establish their understanding as well as acquire the social, intellectual and physical skills necessary for the development of meaningful concepts. Excursions combined with seeing and doing are vital components of any early education program.
Kangaroo Kids organises outdoor field trips like visits to the fire station, supermarket and petrol station for our younger age groups. Visits to a School for the blind, Optician, Dentist, and Zoo are just a sample of the various field trips for our older children. Many "in-house" fields trips are also organised. Children of Kangaroo Kids as well as neighbouring mainstream schools benefit from our "in-house" programs such as Marine days, Farm days, Insect and Reptile Day to name a few.
Motor Activities
Kangaroo Kids provides opportunities for children to develop coordinated skills in a safe non-threatening environment. By taking part in structured play situations both, indoors and out, children are offered a chance to try out new skills as well as practice familiar ones. Motor activities, woven into the curriculum teach and reinforce skills such as balance, hand-eye co-ordination, rhythm and the manual dexterity necessary to colour, draw and write. As children gain control over their bodies and its movements, each child's self esteem and confidence grows stronger. Motor activity sessions consist of both fine and gross movements, as well as a Perceptual Motor Program (PMP). This program is designed to stimulate the sensory motor system and integrate it with the child's brain, which helps to fast track the ability to sort, organise and put messages together. These sessions are important for the full development of the nervous system and intellectual potential. The program has shown remarkable results & has helped children to achieve accelerated learning, improved coordination & an improved ability to focus on tasks.
Music, Movement & Dramatic Play
Music & Movement sessions result in longer attention spans, sharper listening abilities and the development of language/vocabulary skills. In addition to the skills developed music & movement sessions are a period of great enjoyment for children.
Creative Arts
The visual arts fulfill an essential need in children to explore and organise their world. The acts of drawing, painting and shaping objects teach children important new ways of thinking, of creating and of communicating with images as well as with words.
