DISCOVERY CENTERS

Our Discovery Centers are the hubs of creative learning and exploration within our classrooms, serving as foundational pillars for holistic child development. Here, every area is meticulously designed as a learning tool, promoting social and physical growth, and kindling the innate curiosity within each child. These centers are not just spaces but experiences, where the joys of discovery and the excitement of learning intertwine, fostering an early love for knowledge and exploration.

COMMUNITY & DIVERSITY

Nestled in the serene and diverse San Bruno community, Happy Hall is proud to be a microcosm reflecting the rich tapestry of cultures and backgrounds, ensuring a welcoming and inclusive environment for every child and family. Our dedicated teaching team and our familial events underscore our commitment to creating a close-knit and supportive community.

MEALS

Active young minds and bodies need the right fuel. That’s why we serve warm, nutritious lunches and wholesome snacks, prepared fresh each day, offering a variety of dishes that introduce children to new flavors.

But mealtime is more than just about eating; it’s a time of learning and bonding. Serving meals family-style fosters a sense of community and sharing, allowing children to practice passing, sharing, and enjoying food together. It’s a daily opportunity for children to strengthen social bonds and develop essential interpersonal skills in a joyful, communal setting.

LIFE SKILLS

Life Skills are the cornerstone of our learning environment, reflecting our commitment to fostering responsible, caring, and flexible individuals. These skills are more than characteristics; they are lived values, actively embodied and modeled within our classrooms every day. They are the foundation for creating an atmosphere ripe with accountability, empowerment, empathy, and safety.

By emphasizing constructive problem-solving and effective communication, we guide children to understand and resolve conflicts positively, mitigating frustration and discouragement. This approach aligns with our experiential learning philosophy, enabling children to apply these vital skills in real-world contexts.

OUTDOOR EXPLORATION

Nestled in a serene residential area, our school features three specially designed playgrounds, each catering to the diverse needs of different age groups, offering a secure and enriching space for discovery and play.
