OLV ’s Pedagogy
Inspired by the Waldorf pedagogy, OLV welcomes each child as a unique person.
We strive to nurture capable individuals, who create meaning for their lives, and who become free-thinking and acting individuals.
OLV education seeks to educate the whole child in their “head, heart and hands.” It is based on a thorough knowledge of the inner life of the child and follows their developmental stages.
​
First, the child is brought to experience things actively and then to feel these things, before finally approaching them intellectually.
​
Our curriculum aims to teach English including work on language, literacy, writing, math and sciences. These teaching areas concentrate on the development and awareness of children’s receptive skills (listen, read and observe) and productive skills (speak, write and create).
​
For the Early Young Stage, OLV offers exciting and creative programs which are adapted to this age, but, above all, to the level of the child.
​
There are no barriers to entry.
Every little Vaishnav is welcome, regardless of their linguistic background. The academy is open to children of all origins.
​
Our role is to help our pupils develop their abilities, taking into account their personal aptitudes. We accept children, whether they are English-speaking or not.
​
Both those who arrive in August or during the course of the academic year can join the Nursery, if there is space available.
​
The child is followed individually and benefits from pedagogy which is adapted to their needs, potential, personality and aptitudes.

Communication Atmosphere
During every class the pedagogical team creates a communicative atmosphere where the children learn to express themselves as well as to listen to the teacher and to other pupils.
​
From the age of 3+, children learn to communicate in front of others in the class.
​
In this way, they develop their self-confidence as well as their communicative skills, which will help them to develop as adults.
