OUR PHILOSOPHY
“Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.” – Albert Einstein At Capriccio Private School, we believe that education should be experienced as an enjoyable, inspiring adventure – The school should offer children a safe space and a sense of belonging in which to truly explore their creative potential in its widest sense. In the process, their curiosity should awaken naturally, gently propelling them forward to want to know more, subtly instilling in them a growth mindset and a life-long love of learning.
