Royal Russell learning spaces, also known as studios, are flexible and designed for play, learning and discovery. Each studio includes children of different ages who support each other and cooperate in the daily educational process. Such an environment fosters a culture of respect for the right of another person to develop and learn. Our children do not seek higher grades, but personal growth and expansion of horizons, learning while experiencing joy and satisfaction with their results. Respect is the foundation of every skill that is developed at Royal Russell nursery. We respect our time, friends and our learning environment. Children collaborate with educators to create school and class agreements. It is important to us that every child has the right to quality, undisturbed education for himself and his friends.

These daily opportunities create a fully free flowing holistic experience between the indoor and outdoor environments. This provision ensures that children are challenged and readily make connections in their learning, inspiring high levels of creative and critical thinking. There is a joy to learning in the Kindergarten. Our youngest children are encouraged to take risks and experiment in order to learn intellectually, socially, physically and emotionally in the security of a warm and nurturing surrounding.
