ABOUT US

Cultivating Curious Minds

Born from a seed of wonder, AAIS sprouted two years ago to nurture blossoming minds in an enriching, child-centered early learning centre. Today, our roots weave a vibrant community of dedicated educators, supportive families, and curious little explorers. Together, we watch laughter bloom, imaginations take flight, and tiny caterpillars transform into confident butterflies, ready to embrace the world beyond.

Our Vision

At AAIS our vision is to provide a vigorous curriculum that empowers students for personal growth and lifelong learning. We cultivate resilience and essential 21st-century skills, preparing them to thrive and positively impact global and local communities. Committed to environmental responsibility, we guide students in appreciating and protecting the natural world, fostering a strong connection with the Earth as conscientious global citizens.

Our Mission

Our academic and extracurricular programs are carefully crafted to be interesting and meaningful. We’re committed to sustainable education, creating an inclusive environment tailored to each student’s needs. This helps develop creative, innovative, and critical thinking skills. Our mission depends on hiring and training excellent teachers, both local and international. Most importantly, we’re passionate about ensuring our students become capable, responsible, compassionate, confident, and fulfilled individuals, ready for bright futures in both local and global communities.

A Vigorous Curriculum

A vigorous education is relevant and responsive, while developing the 21st century skills of critical thinking, collaboration, creativity and communication.  Learning experiences occur in the classroom, in the community and in nature. The aim of a vigorous curriculum is to create independent learners, with a lifelong love of learning, an emotional capacity for personal growth, continued wellbeing and ability to resolve conflict, and the skills and courage to take action in their community to make the world a better place.

Developing the whole child

AAIS aims to develop a growth mindset where students have a positive attitude to learning and are determined to try their best and learn from their mistakes.  They are inspired by the success in others and have the courage to take on challenging tasks. AAIS bases our behaviour management model on restorative practices, building a school culture that is supportive and respectful, based on healthy relationships.  Students are empowered to accept responsibility for their actions and to rebuild relationships if there is conflict.  

Embracing Nature

Nature is our classroom. We recognize the profound benefits of connecting children with the natural world. Our nature-based curriculum takes learning beyond traditional classroom walls and into the great outdoors. Children engage in outdoor activities,nature exploration, and eco-friendly projects that promote environmental awareness, sensory development, and a strong bond with the natural world. This approach nurtures a sense of empathy, stewardship and respect for our planet.

Nurturing change makers

At AAIS we not only believe in the importance of meaningful community connections but our staff, students and school community regularly take actions to serve others and empower our local neighbours with new skills and opportunities.  We equip our students with the competence and attitudes to make a difference in their community while respecting local culture, speaking other languages, exploring the issues and collaborating with others for appropriate solutions.
