A bite of APPPLE for the young learners

A bite of APPPLE for the young learners
The early years of a child’s life is the most crucial period in their development. Early experiences determine the way their brain develops and this considered to be the strong foundation for a child’s behavior.

To lay such strong foundation stone in the growth process of a child, Oakridge-largest international school in India introduced a creative learning program- APPPLE [A Progressive Program for Pre-primary Learners to Excel]. APPPLE is a program to assist and encourage the learning process during the early years of a child which is considered to be a crucial period where they begin their thinking process.

Capt. Rohit Sen Bajaj, principal of Oakridge Gachibowli campus, says, “APPPLE at Oakridge helps nurture warm relationship among children, teachers and parents. This program focuses on developing certain ideals like promoting social and emotional development, promoting language and cognitive skills, nurture curiosity, boost pre-math and pre-literary skills and also to develop their fine motor skills.  APPPLE program at Oakridge becomes complete with the Toy Library which we have provided to our children. This well furnished and enhanced Toy Library will augment the APPPLE program and help children to excel in the learning process. We are looking forward in the successful implementation and application of both the program and the Toy Library.

When you choose APPPLE, you can assure that your child is well cared for, enjoying activities and making friends- and is building knowledge, skills and confidence to do well in primary school and later in future” he adds.
