Our Rooms

At Little Earth Oteha Valley, we don’t divide our children into separate rooms. There’s no stressful transitioning between rooms, the younger children learn skills from the older children, and the older ones take pride in teaching their peers new things. Our children also get to spend their whole time with the same teachers, allowing them to develop a deeper understanding of each child’s strengths and needs.
