Ms. Diana is amazing with the Kindergarten Enrichment program -- my son goes there 3 days a week and actually is disappointed that he doesn't get to go there on Friday! The atmosphere and the programs promote learning through fun interaction ....offering art and science projects which my son just loves! I am so happy that we were able to secure his enrollment ~ thank you Malvern School !!
