What Makes Us Different
-
A Curriculum Built for Tomorrow
Exclusively designed for Kangaroo Kids, our innovative iCan Learning System prepares children to thrive in a rapidly changing world. It combines 9 Future Skills, 15 Habits of the Mind, and the Five Pillars of Learning: Enrichment, STEAM, Language, Math, and Creativity.
Delivered through our Fluidic Learning Methodology, it provides a flexible, child-centred approach that seamlessly blends digital and physical learning. -
A Genuinely International Community
With learners from 10+ nationalities, Kangaroo Kids is one of the Maldives’ most culturally diverse early years settings. From their very first day, children develop respect for different perspectives, languages, and traditions. Learning alongside peers from diverse backgrounds helps them collaborate confidently and understand that diversity is a strength in today’s interconnected world.
-
Rooted in Maldivian Values
While embracing an international outlook, we are proud to be a Maldivian institution. Dhivehi language, Islamic Studies, and Quran are integral to our programme, ensuring children develop a strong sense of cultural identity alongside global awareness. Children who understand who they are and where they come from are better prepared to engage confidently with the wider world.

Recognised for Excellence
We are proud to have been named Asia’s Most Trusted Brand in 2016 and 2018. These accolades recognise not only our curriculum and campus, but also the dedication of every educator, administrator, and support staff member. More importantly, they reflect what our families have long known—that Kangaroo Kids consistently delivers on its promises.
Our Community
At Kangaroo Kids, parents are partners. We believe that when families and educators work together, children flourish. From open days and parent workshops to regular progress updates and end-of-term showcases, we keep you closely involved in your child’s journey from the very first day.
We know that choosing a school is one of the most important decisions you will make. We do not take that trust lightly. Our door is always open, and our team is always available to talk, to answer questions, and to make sure you feel as confident and excited about your child’s education as we are.
A Welcome from Our Principal
Welcome to Kangaroo Kids
Everything is special at Kangaroo Kids.
I mean that sincerely. The early years of a child life are not just a phase to move through quickly, but a world to inhabit fully and joyfully. Every child who walks through our doors brings something unique, something irreplaceable, and it is our privilege to help them discover it.
When I joined this school, I was drawn by a commitment to education that I had rarely seen elsewhere. Not a commitment to test results or league tables, but to children as whole human beings. To their curiosity, their creativity, their resilience, and their growing sense of who they are in the world. I found a team of educators who shared that vision, and together we have worked to build something truly extraordinary.
We believe every child is unique. At Kangaroo Kids, we create a joyful, play-based learning environment where children can explore, grow, and build confidence in their own way. Seeing their curiosity, happiness, and progress every day is what makes this journey truly meaningful.
