Circle Time
A child’s emotional development is considered a key factor in their educational success. We, at Meru International School aim at creating an emotionally safe learning environment where academic excellence thrives.
Children go through numerous experiences on a regular basis. A child who does not feel emotionally safe, valued or listened to, may enter the classroom feeling frustrated, angry, distracted or withdrawn, particularly when attempting to learn a new concept. This could, in turn, affect their overall performance and emotional state.
The Circle Time Programme of Meru International School is an experience for all grades, which provides for the spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of our students. This programme is designed to teach by example there by encouraging democratic values, pro-social behaviour, self-discipline and motivation.
