Primary School: Grades 1 – 5
At ALIS we recognize that the role of the educator is to determine the learning style of the child and then create an environment that will allow that child to develop to his full potential. We work with the parents to ensure that the children learn and develop physically, intellectually, emotionally, socially and spiritually.
The early years in school form a child’s attitude toward learning. Our aim is to provide opportunities for our students to discover their own creative and intellectual abilities. We equip them to face and conquer new challenges, giving them a solid foundation on which to build in the years to come.
