Creators see themselves as active global citizens who have a shared agency of our planet. They are passionate about their responsibilities to improve life on Earth.

Teamwork & Partnerships
Creators embrace collaboration and partnership as an effective and efficient way to solving a problem. They understand that others’ strengths can complement or supplement their own. They are willing to adopt different roles in a team as the success of the mission outweighs individual accolade.

TESTIMONIALS
Words From Our Student’s Parents
The Cambridge Primary Curriculum subjects Mathematics, Science and English are taught in creative ways that enable the students to gain interest and eventually apply the knowledge they learned. The IPC curriculum takes the kids on a learning journey through the different themes in the Units of Learning using fun and interactive activities about the world around them. Every dinner is an exciting discussion about their day in school including chocolates, inventors, fossils and the Dalai Lama!

The Additional English Language teacher conducts her classes to suit six-year-old Ayako’s pace of learning using engaging methods. The small class size also helps build her confidence in the language. Ayako can now speak confidently in English and we’re very satisfied with her progress! Friends always share that their child’s English language classes at school cost extra, but not at The Grange.

Parents of Ayako, Year 1B
The unique “family” atmosphere at The Grange is something we appreciate very much. Moving to a new country has, at times, made us feel lost and frustrated as parents, however, The Grange team has been so kind to talk to us, listen to our concerns and share their insights with us. Their care and sincere support has really helped not just our children but has been extended to even the parents! This is really a family school and we will remember the special efforts of the school for years to come!
