preschool campus at Chartwell International School.<\/strong><\/p><p>As Head of School, and as an educator with over 15 years of experience across Chile and Europe, I have come to believe that early childhood is not simply the beginning of education\u2014it is the foundation of who we become.<\/p><p>My journey through teaching in preschool, primary, and secondary settings ultimately led me back to where it all starts. It is in these early years that children begin to ask their first questions about the world, build their first friendships, and discover their own voice. This is why early childhood education holds such a special place in my heart.<\/p><p>At Via Azul, we have created a small, nurturing environment for children aged 2 to 5, where each child is truly seen and supported. With just over 60 students and surrounded by green outdoor spaces, our campus is designed to feel like a home away from home\u2014safe, joyful, and full of possibility.<\/p><p>We believe that children learn best when they are curious, engaged, and given the freedom to explore. Our approach combines play-based and inquiry-led learning with thoughtful structure, allowing children to investigate ideas, experiment with materials, and develop confidence in their thinking. Our teachers are there to guide, inspire, and gently challenge, helping each child grow at their own pace.<\/p><p>At the same time, we place great importance on developing the whole child. Through our social-emotional learning approach, we support children in understanding their feelings, building empathy, and learning how to connect with others. Because ultimately, if we want to change the world, we begin by raising a generation that is kind, aware, and compassionate.<\/p><p>We also believe strongly in the power of community. Education is a shared journey, and we work closely with families to create an international environment that feels like an extended family\u2014supportive, inclusive, and connected.<\/p><p>It is a privilege to be part of these early years, and to help shape a lifelong love of learning in every child who walks through our doors.<\/p><p><strong>Warmest regards,<\/strong><br \/><strong>Antonina Viksenko<\/strong><br \/><strong>Head of School, Via Azul Campus<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-23b9be4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"23b9be4\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5eeb1a1\" data-id=\"5eeb1a1\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-83ff04d elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"83ff04d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A nurturing start.
