Garden House in New York offers pre-schooling and Kindergarten in 
attractive purpose-designed premises for children from the ages of 2-6 
years. A thoughtful balance of play and structured learning is cultivated during the school day. This encompasses a holistic view of the child’s development: physical, social, emotional and cognitive.

We believe that kindness, manners and a respect for one another are 
essential elements in character building. Equally important to our philosophy 
is the introduction of reading and writing before Kindergarten. Developed 
in our London school the early Reading Program is implemented in our 
New York schools.

Our core curriculum entails Dramatic Play, Language Development, Early Mathematics, Movement, Pencil Control, Reading, Science and Writing whilst emphasizing Art, Ballet, French and Music.

Children thrive in an aesthetically beautiful environment. Garden House School aims to provide a visually stimulating environment using color, art works and fresh flowers.

We encourage you to apply online and we will welcome you to our school.

“AT GARDEN HOUSE WE BELIEVE THERE ARE
FEW PLACES MORE MAGICAL THAN A CLASSROOM,
WHERE CHILDREN’S MINDS ARE OPENED TO NEW WORLDS,
FRESH POSSIBILITIES AND EVEN MORE TANTALISING RIDDLES”

The program is designed to meet the developmental needs of each child 
and primarily focuses on social adjustment. There is ample opportunity for 
rich play, art and discovery in an environment that promotes and reinforces 
the learning experience. Teacher directed circle time includes listening to a 
story, learning a song and playing simple games.

Team effort encourages a learning environment that enables each child to 
master new skills and absorb knowledge at their own pace. The curriculum includes the alphabet and early reading, numbers, pencil skills, colors, shapes, cooking and field trips. There are daily art activities linked to the weekly 
projects; Music Appreciation and Introductory French. At this level children appreciate the order and discipline of learning.

This program is thoughtfully structured, placing emphasis on readiness for 
further education by focusing on language arts. These objectives are met 
through individualized and small group instruction. These years build upon previous foundations. The children work with enthusiasm and are delighted 
to see the results of their efforts.

Parents attend a welcome breakfast in the Spring of the incoming year.
Classroom orientation is scheduled for the beginning of the school year to
introduce the staff and the curriculum. Teachers are always available for
discussions throughout the year. Parent/Teacher conferences are held twice 
a year to discuss each child’s progress and to evaluate their needs. 
Each class is taught by a qualified head teacher and an assistant. 
Teachers actively participate in seminars and continuing education classes.

Your child benefits fully from our curriculum 
by completing all 3 years of our program.

This is our main school, located on the ground floor where our school
office is housed. The school is modern, open, airy and light and was
designed to complement our philosophy of space and style. There is an 
indoor playroom and a covered outdoor play space. There are five
classrooms that accommodate our Toddlers, Juniors and Seniors.

Our other New York school occupies three floors in a renovated mansion designed specifically for us as a preschool. The spacious design provides an 
indoor gym, ballet room and an outdoor patio and garden. In this location
