Nurturing Children Through Learning and Fun
Established in 1979, IVNS is housed in the spacious education wing of Grace Bible Church. We use 7 classrooms (fully equipped with secure internet access for our classroom set of iPads), a large playroom, library, music room, separate gym building and playground, all providing an excellent program facility.
IVNS class size ranges from 14-18 students lead by a Head Teacher (degree in Early Childhood Education) and a Teaching Assistant. The daily schedule includes a variety of well-planned activities focusing on the group needs of the children. Art, music, building, dramatic play, science, Bible, iPads and other academic readiness activities are part of a typical day. Emphasis is placed on learning by doing, and children are continually involved in first-hand experiences.
“IVNS has been a complete blessing to our family. It’s clear God’s hand is at work in our community through this school. Everyone is so welcoming - the environment feels like a family where every child is seen and heard. It’s clear that the teachers are passionate about their work, there is fantastic communication with parents, and a curriculum that challenges and supports the kids’ emotional and academic development and growth. We truly can’t say enough about the treasure this school is to the Souderton area!”
-Christie Bett
Our school provides a developmentally age-appropriate education for children in a loving, caring Christian environment. We strive to find the balance between rigor and fun while educating. Because each child is unique, we get to know them well while they learn and explore the world around them.
