Pre Primary School : Pre-Nursery, Nursery & Prep
St. Nicholas Public School is committed to inculcate competitive spirit and deep desire to excel in academics and extracurricular activities among its students. It follows the CBSE syllabi within which, flexibility of methodology and the use of experiential learning through doing are strongly encouraged. Our system of evaluation takes into account the individualities of different children to provide adequate feedback on the student’s learning without putting undue pressure. As the child progresses through the classes, the assessment is gradually modified to prepare external tests and competitive exams.
CLASS ROOM AS PLAY ROOM
The heart of the school is the most attractive class rooms as play rooms furnished with colorful, non-toxic toys and furniture. These are the rooms where the tiny tots of kindergarten wing explore and learn,and develop their motor skills while playing. The toys and play articles have been carefully selected to offer a healthy exposure to the little ones to sharpen their intellectual and reasoning skills. Number of outdoor play-stations are there which has become another hunted spot for the kindergarteners.

Students learn useful new skills from their activities especially at primary stage and integrate these activities into their daily lives and learn time management, critical thinking, teamwork and social skills. They develop life long relationship with their peers and learn how to lead others.
