About Us
Statement
of Purpose
The purpose of the LILLIPUT school programs is to meet
the individual needs of the child as we prepare him/her for further education.
In a safe environment suited to the child’s learning needs, we will
provide for regular association with other children in work and play.
We will provide for the growth and development of the child’s physical
and mental abilities under the guidance of qualified, creative teachers.
Each child will be encouraged to explore, discover and create through
a multi-sensory approach to learning.
Most important, the objectives of LILLIPUT include the development
of a positive self-concept among all children. This “first school”
experience should develop a sense of joy, wonder and curiosity in the
world around us.
