EuroKids Targets Ambitious Growth in Bhubaneswar with Unveiling of Harvard-Inspired ‘Heureka’ Curriculum
Bhubaneswar: EuroKids, India’s foremost preschool expert, proudly announces the launch of its 8th version of the curriculum, ‘Heureka’, the Visible Thinking Curriculum. Inspired by Harvard University’s Project Zero and aligned with the National Education Policy 2020’s vision for comprehensive development, Heurekais curated to enhance young learners’ critical and creative thinking skills.
As part of EuroKids’ ambitious growth strategy, the preschool network also announced its plan to expand its presence in Bhubaneswar and across Odisha. EuroKids plans to open 32 new centres in the state within the next 5 years, increasing the number from 43 to 75 centres in Odisha, enhancing the quality of early education in the state. EuroKids, the leader in Early Education, recognizes the need for high-quality early education, so it keeps updating its curriculum.
Heureka represents a significant shift from teaching children “what” to think to empowering them with the skills on “how” to think. This curriculum introduces 20 structured Harvard-inspired Thinking Routines that spark curiosity, foster imagination, and cultivate critical thinking in young minds, ensuring that children are not merely absorbing information but are actively engaging with it in a way that fosters deeper understanding and creativity.
Developed over 18 months of rigorous research, pilot testing, and refinement, Heureka is anchored by the EPICS philosophy, addressing five core areas of development that are often overlooked in the education systems – Emotional, Physical, Intellectual, Creative, and Spiritual quotients. The pillars of the curriculum are the 13 distinct programs (CodeQuest, EuroKonect, EuroFit, EuroArt, Elevate, and many more) that are tailored to each child’s learning journey to prepare them not only for academic success but also for lifelong personal growth.
