Early Learning Center

Philosophy

Jesus said, "let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these." Mark 10:14 is the foundation on which Harding Academy Early Learning Center operates daily. Children need to know they are a blessing to God, to their parents, and to other Christians. Parents are the most important teachers and nurturers of their children. We want to partner with parents in teaching each child that they are special because God made them. Helping parents write the word of God on their child's heart is our passion.

Classrooms

Each classroom is centered upon teaching children to love God and each other through a variety of individualized activities. Every child is considered a unique individual and encouraged to progress at his or her own rate of development. Hands-on learning takes place through guided discovery and instructional activities. Center times allow children the opportunity for choice play experiences in blocks, housekeeping, dramatic play, art, books, puzzles, science and discovery, music, and fine and large motor activities. Our classrooms are designed to engage children as they explore and grow in their understanding of God and their place in His world.
