Our Curriculum at Thanisandra
At our Thanisandra preschool, children learn through the Cambridge Early Years Curriculum- an internationally recognised framework covering six areas of development: Communication, Language and Literacy; Mathematics; Physical Development; Personal, Social and Emotional Development; Understanding the World; and Creative Expression. We deliver it through Play Way’s hands-on, experiential learning; Montessori materials for mathematical concepts; and the Jolly Phonics program for reading and writing readiness.
In a typical week, that means Brain Gym and yoga for physical development, Six Bricks and Montessori number work for early mathematics, phonics-based story circles for language, and our Tālā Academy music partnership alongside outdoor loose parts play for creative and physical exploration. Ours is an unhurried, observation-led approach where teachers watch and adjust to each child’s pace.

Daycare at our Thanisandra Preschool
Daycare at our Thanisandra preschool runs 1:00 pm to 6:30 pm, Monday to Friday, for children 2 to 10 years – timed specifically so a parent finishing a normal day inside Manyata Tech Park isn’t racing an early deadline. Lunch at 1:00 pm, quiet rest time for younger children, then supervised play and activities through the afternoon, with a second snack around 5:00 pm ahead of pickup.
Children aged 6–10 already at primary school elsewhere get structured homework time alongside play. It’s a continuation of the same calm, unhurried day, with the same teachers your child already knows.

Mohsina NidaWe couldn’t be happier with this toddler school. The teachers are incredibly kind, patient, and genuinely care about each child. My daughter feels safe, loved, and excited to go every day, which means everything to us as parents. We’ve seen such positive growth in her confidence and social skills.

It’s more than Education at Little Red Hen
At Little Red Hen, education goes beyond textbooks. We believe in a calm, holistic learning environment where children explore at their own pace — from nutritious meals and collaborative sports to music, dramatics, loose parts play, story sessions, a library oasis, and arts and crafts that let creativity unfold naturally.

FAQs
Our Thanisandra preschool welcomes children from 1 year 8 months, through five age-based groups: Pre-Toddler Group, Playgroup, Early Years 1, Early Years 2, and Early Years 3. Each group follows the Cambridge Early Years Curriculum at a pace suited to that stage of development, so a child moving from Pre-Toddler through to EY3 experiences a continuous, unhurried progression rather than an abrupt jump between levels.
