A Caring Environment |
 The teachers and staff at Seta International
Preschool believe that children learn best when they feel very happy and comfortable in their environment. As a result, tremendous time and attention went into the layout of the facility and choosing all of the equipment. Carefully selected by experienced teachers, the equipment is not only modern and safe, but most of it has been imported from overseas. Every effort has been made to provide an environment that encourages students to learn, explore, play, and have fun. Every day, the children are taken to a local park located a 5-minute walk from the school, where they can get some exercise and enjoy being outdoors.

Special Classes |
-
 Computer Class - Technology plays an ever-increasing part
in our lives. Nowhere is this more evidently necessary than in
the field of education. Children who do not learn the basic
skills in this field early on can be at a disadvantage in the
next stage of their education. 5 computers have been installed
and the teachers are experienced in using them with young children.
- Music and Physical Education - Seta International Preschool students
also have regular classes in music and physical education. Twice a
week, specialists in these areas visit the school to provide a
structured program in these important subjects.

| Parental Involvement |
The role that parents play in their child's education is extremely important. At Seta International
Preschool parents are invited and encouraged to participate in the school's special events, such as the X'mas Concert Party, Spring Party and Year End Party. Birthday parties are also held every month for parents to help celebrate their child's special day.
