At Rothewood Academy’s daycare and preschool, whole child learning is a way of life. This methodology honours every child’s different strengths and abilities, celebrating diversity and fostering a lifelong love for learning.
We believe that every child is a unique and wondrous individual, deserving of an education that nurtures their mind, body and spirit. Our holistic approach to learning encompasses not only academic excellence but also emotional intelligence, social skills and physical well-being.
As you embark on your journey to select the perfect educational haven for your little ones, we invite you to explore the concept of whole child learning – a cornerstone of our philosophy.
What Is Whole Child Learning?
Whole child learning is about embracing the full spectrum of childhood development, from cognitive growth to creative expression, social interactions and physical activities. It’s about fostering a love for learning that extends beyond the confines of traditional classrooms, empowering children to explore, discover and flourish in their own way.
The Rothewood Way
The Rothewood method is based on a contemporary approach to early childhood development through differentiated, individualized and personalized learning. Our motto is “Head. Hands. Heart.” It refers to the fact that the Rothewood educational method is dedicated to teaching the whole child – head, hands and heart.
Whole child learning is the heart of our institution. Our second-to-none program embeds international best practices into all initiatives and activities geared toward early learning.

Step inside our vibrant classrooms, and you’ll witness the magic of whole child learning come to life. Our curriculum stimulates curiosity, encourages critical thinking and inspires a lifelong passion for knowledge. From sensory-rich activities to hands-on experiments, imaginative play and outdoor adventures, every experience is designed to engage and delight young minds.
Our Teachers
It’s not just about what happens inside the classroom. Our dedicated team of highly trained educators is committed to creating a nurturing environment where children feel safe, supported and valued. With years of experience and a deep understanding of child development, our teachers act as mentors, guides and cheerleaders, fostering meaningful connections and building solid foundations for future success.
At Rothewood Academy, we know that education is a partnership between home and school. We cherish the opportunity to work hand-in-hand with parents to support their child’s growth and development. Our open-door policy encourages ongoing communication, collaboration and mutual respect, ensuring that every child receives the individualized attention and care they deserve.
Our Approach
Beyond academics, we recognize the importance of social and emotional development in shaping well-rounded individuals. Through group projects, collaborative play and community service initiatives, we instill essential values such as empathy, compassion and teamwork. These values empower kids to become caring and responsible members of society.
We also value the essential impact of physical health and well-being. Rothewood Academy prioritizes outdoor play, active exploration and nutritious meals to ensure children begin practicing healthy habits at a young age. Our spacious playgrounds, nature trails and organic gardens provide endless opportunities for them to connect with the natural world and embrace an active lifestyle.
