This is the next rung of the ladder. Along the corridor are grades 1 to 5. There is a buzz of excitement and activity in the air. Following the latest pedagogical trends, the Thematic Inter-disciplinary approach has been adopted at this level. The curriculum encourages children to explore their interests, as they move concentrically from the familiar to the unknown.
