The Philippine Department of Education requires children to begin formal education in Kindergarten by age 5. In practice, children start learning the moment they are born.

Babies learn to lift their heads, to turn in bed, to crawl, to listen, and to recognize people. Toddlers learn to speak, to listen, to walk, and to obey.

Formal education allows families to have a set of guidelines regarding how to equip their children for life. For children who enroll at 3 years of age, Kairos provides a nursery program that introduces pre-writing, pre-reading, and pre-mathematics skills. To allow children to adjust better to the academic demands of Kindergarten, Kairos recommends a Pre-K program for students to start their formal education journey at 4 years of age.

Seize the day and give your children the educational head start they deserve!

Families choose to homeschool for a variety of reasons. Some choose to shape their children’s character in a better Christian environment. Some aim to maximize their children’s academic potential. Some others feel called to this path to meet logistical, medical, or spiritual concerns.

Regardless of the reasons God calls our families to homeschool, Kairos serves them by providing a core curriculum and structured system within which families may learn and explore in the ways best suited for them. Students thrive in a loving environment, and we let our families focus on the teaching and caring while our administration does the footwork for them.

In the Kairos system, students get to learn both at home and at school, in a group and as individuals. Learning gets to happen whenever and wherever suits it best.

Life is never always the same. Children grow, and people age. Certain times of the year are busier and other times slow-moving. Events, health issues, trips, and life’s other surprises alter the course of our everyday routine temporarily or permanently.

But learning never stops.

Our children learn as much in diligent academic study as they do in life. Children absorb information in multi-sensory ways. A family reunion fosters values that cannot be learned through a book. A milestone event or adventure can lend context to many skills developed in school.

No matter the state of our heart and home, time doesn’t stop, and learning doesn’t either. Through every season of life, the homeschooled child – and the homeschooling parent – never ceases to grow.

Deck the halls and light the tree!

Have a very merry Christmas!

Life’s battles are won on our knees. No amount of skill, preparation, or material equipment can mold the hearts of young children without the Lord’s hand. The unique calling of homeschooling can be successful only when our parents and teachers bring our students before the Lord day after day after day.

May our gracious God continue to bless our families with the strength, wisdom, creativity, and compassion they need to raise their children up in His love. May the heart of every Kairos student be shaped under the masterful guidance of the Potter’s hand.
