Preschool
For children from 2 to 3 years old, they are welcomed to the preschool class at MAX. Their growth accelerates at an astonishingly rapid pace, during which more meaningful social experiences and independent analytical abilities develop simultaneously.
The philosophy of the Reggio Emilia Approach encourages children to ask questions and investigate freely, and we take a firm stand to create an environment to support this educational philosophy. Our Preschool Class is filled with engaging activities, songs, and art projects, all thoughtfully planned according to monthly themes.
