De-Lois Schools

Our Nursery school section is designed to lay a solid foundation for children aged 18 months to 5+. The school is a specially-prepared environment and is regarded as one of the best schools in Ogun State, due to its qualified teachers and child-centre facilities. When you enroll your children in our preschool, he or she will experience an adapted form of the De-Lois method of education, which enables children to achieve their full potential.

At De-Lois Preschool, our teaching approach is child-centred. Our teachers neither impose on our pupils nor abandon them in total free play. Our classes are equipped with De-Lois didactic materials in the following five De-Lois curriculum areas:

Practical Life Exercises

These include elementary movements and preliminary activities such as classroom conduct and the development of fine motor skills – pouring, transferring, sweeping, opening and closing, care of self, care of the environment, development of social skills, grace and courtesy.

Sensorial Education

This is an approach that stimulates a child’s five senses – taste, touch, smell, sight, and hearing. This allows children to use their senses to explore and understand the world around them. It includes activities that help them study objects, colours, textures, tastes, numbers, and situations.

Language

This involves the development of written expression, reading, writing, oral and grammar of your child. Your child’s basic skills in writing and reading will be developed through the use of sandpaper and large movable alphabet.

Cultural Subjects

Geography, biology, life sciences, music and art make up cultural subjects. Your child will be introduced to these subjects through the use of didactic apparatus. The Montessori materials will help set a foundation for your child to develop an independent personality, adapt to his or her culture and become a useful member of the society.

All the above curriculum areas help to support children through the formative years, and with our carefully organised De-Lois environment, your children will learn and grow at his or her own pace. Our teachers will serve as the guide to encourage your child through these developmental processes. Aside from the five De-Lois curriculum areas, our preschool offers elective options in ballet, swimming, French, arts and crafts, cultural activities, gymnastics, indoor games and story time. There is an assembly at 8 am every Monday where pupils participate in songs, poems, recitations and short plays. Our preschool pupils participate in outdoor activities, P.E., music and ICT (in the Pink Class). The De-Lois teaching method will help your children to be disciplined, independent, cultured, responsible, creative, imaginative and self-confident.

As one of the best De-Lois Schools in Lagos, our preschool is divided into four classes, even though we also practice vertical grouping where applicable. Buttercup: 15 months to 2 years Tulip: 2 year above to 5 years
