For years the focus has been on what we need children to learn instead of how children learn. At Ombu we follow the best practise in teaching children 'how to learn' not just 'what to learn'. We want to develop not only knowledge, skills and understanding but also characteristics of effective learning that will make the children become better equipped at becoming life long learners. By teaching them characteristics of learning that will help them in any situation, such as resilience, creative thinking, and the ability to connect ideas together. We have developed these characteristics into animal graphics to help teach the children from a young age.
