Arousing immense curiosity, kindlingpassion, igniting natural instinct and patiently steering themtowards a fun-filled path of discovery and wonder! Because,we strongly believe, it is only then that a child is creativelyinspired and truly empowered to take on the challenges oflife.Learning through explorationWhen you open a child’s mind to exploration and discovery,it can produce amazing results. Lets take an example toillustrate this point.Suppose a child points to a pencil and ask what it is, youcould choose to give a definite answer “ It ‘s a pencil. It isused for writing”. But Suppose you were to open up theanswer as an explorative challenge “This is called a pencil.Some people use it to write. But why don’t you spend a dayplaying with it and see what others uses you can come upwith!” Believe us, even you ‘ll be surprised with the results.(One child came up with 16 uses!)Technology IntegrationPROSPECTUSTechnology is widely used at St. Sophia Schools to makestudent’s lives easier in every way possible.Technology is made available to students for educationaland personal reasons.
