Tenbroeck Academy - Arts Education in School

ARTS

The arts are integral to the development of every child. Engagement with the arts piques curiosity as well as identifies and stimulates different abilities of the mind and body, aiding in application and memory. Observation, discovery, practice, trial, and research are important aspects that arts can facilitate in the most enjoyable ways. These processes help make arts education at Tenbroeck Academy experiential, enquiry driven, and well rounded. It also helps enhance other aspects like motor, cognitive, emotional, and cultural development in the child.

At Tenbroeck Academy, a child engages with the arts every day of the week. Our curriculum is carefully curated and crafted in collaboration with artist facilitators and a curation team, keeping in mind the varied and growing needs of children, aimed at making it a wholesome experience for each child. The program focuses on exposure to different forms of art thus giving them an opportunity to develop multiple intelligences and skill sets. Our arts facilitators are accomplished performers and teachers and are best equipped to facilitate a creative, artistic and meaningful exchange in the different art forms.
