At Early Learning Fun School (ELF), we believe our children are the future and God has charged us with nurturing these irreplaceable gifts.
We help each child to appreciate his physical and social environment, care for himself, relate to other people and cultures, and deal constructively with conflict.
The whole child is developed with age-appropriate curriculum meeting the needs and interests of each individual.
Our program develops cognitive skills and stimulates intellectual curiosity in math, science, health, nutrition, and social studies.
Perceptive abilities will be strengthened through physical and sensory development.
Communication talents are enhanced through art, drama, music, and movement.
