As parents, the early years of your child’s life are such an exciting time, right? Filled with wonder, new milestones, and so many precious “firsts”—but also plenty of questions and uncertainties. At Mar Choolaparambil Memorial Kindergarten (MCM), we understand how crucial these years are in shaping your child’s future. That’s why we focus on creating an environment where your toddler doesn’t just learn, but truly thrives—socially, emotionally, and academically.
The early years are critical. They lay the foundation for everything that comes next. That’s why, at MCM, we believe that learning doesn’t begin on the first day of school—it begins from day one. And it should be joyful, engaging, and meaningful. From their first steps to their first words, we’re there, supporting and guiding them, providing the tools they need to explore, engage, and grow. As one parent shared, “I was amazed at how quickly my child started speaking and interacting with others after just a few months at MCM. The growth was incredible!”
Toddlers are natural explorers—constantly asking “Why?” and “How?” about everything around them. It’s their way of discovering the world, and we embrace that curiosity wholeheartedly. Recently, one of our toddlers asked about the ripples in a pond. To explore this question in a hands-on way, we took the children on a short trip to a nearby Kshetra Kulam (Temple Pond), where they could see first-hand how the water ripples when a stone is thrown in. This simple experience not only helped them understand cause and effect but also gave them an appreciation for nature in their own backyard. It was a lesson in science, but also in the beauty of the world around them.
At MCM, our curriculum is designed to nurture that curiosity while fostering creativity and critical thinking. Through fun, play-based learning, your child will explore, make new connections, and develop vital cognitive and motor skills. One of our parents shared, “My son came home every day with something new he had learned—whether it was a new word, a song, or an idea. It was so clear that he was eager to learn!”
Of course, learning to interact with others is just as important as learning numbers or letters. At MCM, we create a warm, welcoming environment where children not only learn to share and cooperate but also develop respect and understanding for one another. They begin making friendships, learning empathy, and acquiring essential social skills that will serve them for life. One parent said, “I never thought I would see my toddler so eager to share and play with others, but at MCM, it’s like they’re learning these skills without even realizing it!”
Let’s not forget the importance of emotional development. It’s just as essential as academic growth. At MCM, we provide a safe, nurturing space where toddlers can begin to understand and regulate their emotions. With the guidance of our experienced teachers, your child will learn to express themselves confidently and navigate their feelings in a positive way. As one parent mentioned, “The emotional growth I’ve seen in my daughter is incredible. She’s more confident, more independent, and has a deeper understanding of her own feelings.”
Every child is unique, and we take that very seriously. Whether your child needs extra support in certain areas or thrives on new challenges, we meet them where they are. And for children with special needs, we offer tailored support to ensure they get the attention they deserve. As one grateful parent shared, “My son has special needs, and the way MCM has supported him through tailored learning strategies has been life-changing.”
The Kindergarten division of Sacred Heart Public School, known as Mar Choolaprambil Memorial Kindergarten (MCM), is named in honour of the late Bishop Alexander Choolaparambil, who established the society in 1921.
