The LRS philosophy of education is based on assumptions about growth and development that come from investigations in the fields of psychology and education. The basic tenets of our philosophy are that:

• each child is a unique individual and will develop best if that uniqueness is respected, and that each child has his own "style" of learning .
• teachers must provide the children with experiences which will develop their intellectual ability --- teachers are people who challenge learners--this statement reflects our conviction that teaching has taken place only when learning has taken place.
• play is an important medium through which learning takes place, and is an essential part in any early development curriculum.
