My dear friends thank you for your interest in Primrose School of Wichita East. My name is Anjana and my wonderful husband is Rajesh. We are thrilled to provide the very first premier educational child care option to Wichita and the Andover area families, featuring an all-inclusive program for infants through pre-K students, and an after school program for children up to age 12 as well. We are blessed to have twins! The desire to find the best care for our own children quickly developed into a passion to provide an educational and nurturing environment for all children in our community. During our search for child care we came across Primrose Schools and decided to visit a few of these schools. We were pleasantly overwhelmed by the safe and clean environment and the unique deliverance of the curriculum. I was so overjoyed that the experience literally brought tears to my eyes, and we knew we had to bring Primrose to Wichita. I truly believe that receiving a quality education by the influence of positive role models in the first five years, will set the foundation for your child's future. I am committed to making a positive difference in the lives of children in our community. We look forward to meeting you!
We are conveniently located on N 127th Street East, minutes down the road from the Greenwich Place Shopping Center and Wheatland Elementary School. Unlike an ordinary daycare in Wichita, we provide your child with a robust early education and child care experience.

The Tortoise and the Hare came to visit our Pre-K classrooms! The students enjoyed the classic book, "The Tortoise and the Hare" and then watched them race! But who won the race?
Teachers at Primrose schools get to see the fruits of their labor every day as the children they teach improve their skills and confidence — from a baby learning to sit up to a preschooler forging their first friendship and so much more.
Thank you to all who joined us for our Mother's Day picnic! Happy Mother's Day!
To better meet the individual needs of every child, we’re proud to implement Ages & Stages Questionnaires® (ASQ®-3 and ASQ®:SE-2) in Primrose schools across the country.
Our Primrose Pre-K students explored living and non living items outside by using technology!
Each Primrose school is held to high standards of safety and cleanliness while maintaining a caring and nurturing environment where children can thrive.
Our students enjoyed planting flowers and vegetables in the Primrose Patch this week!
There’s no question that parents want their preschoolers to grasp the basics of colors, numbers and letters to foster a lifetime of learning.
It might seem odd to think about your preschooler exploring data analysis and algebra.
It's a fact: children learn better when they are engaged. That's why purposeful play and nurturing guidance from teachers are key components of Balanced Learning. See how this time-tested approach with a strong emphasis on life skills and character development can help your child develop and excel.
We had so much fun planting our herbs, vegetables and flowers in our Primrose Patch! Mud Pies Program is our weekly garden class. During these visit to the garden our students will examine for growth, water, weed and harvest. Our students look forward to nurturing and caring for the garden.
Never a dull moment at Primrose Schools! Besides keeping our school clean and safe, we love creating magical moments such as the opportunity to care and watch our caterpillars turn into beautiful butterflies! Today our students helped release them.
The learning doesn’t stop this summer! In Project Time our preschool students used their critical thinking skills to make boats out of tin foil and also balance them, so they stay afloat. They got to experiment with a variety of toy animals and dice to keep their boats balanced and afloat. Practicing critical thinking skills safely with compassion, is the best gift we can give our Primrose students!
Pre-K graduation ceremony is a special time of the year to celebrate our students moving into Kindergarten. Since our usual pre-k graduation ceremony was canceled, we did drive-by graduation! It was a lot of fun. We shared some laughs and some tears as we got to congratulate all of our pre-k students. We know they will do great things in the future!
Many of you are searching or in need of a quality daycare. It’s more then ever important, to choice a school that is well prepared and planned during this pandemic. Here are a few highlights we would like to share with you. Contact us to learn more about our phased approach.
At the Primrose School of Wichita East, learning doesn’t stop during the summer. We continue to focus on key math and literacy skills in a fun and caring environment. Schedule your Zoom meeting by emailing Anjana Bhakta (owner) Email abhakta@primrosewichitaeast.com
This team is strong, caring and intuitive! Thank you!
Making children feel comfortable under our COVID-19 drop off procedure, is very important to us! Just one example on how our morning crew makes the transition easier, is playing the live animal cams from our Sedgwick county zoo on our front monitor screen. Children love watching the animals on their way to their classrooms! Thank you Sedgwick County Zoo for bringing the zoo to US! https://scz.org/animal-cams
Being open and transparent with young children is important for their social/emotional development. Here at Primrose Schools, we not only teach academics but we teach life skills. We continue to teach children and explain the importance of washing hands and covering our sneezes. Continue to talk to your children about the importance of washing hands and covering their sneezes.

Meet our Primrose puppet friend "Percy" the rooster! Percy teaches us leadership skills throughout our Primrose children's day! When you pick up your children from school, ask them "Did you help someone today?" Helping another friend.....is a great example of being a leader!
During Project time this week, our preschooler's started on their engineering design challenge! They discussed different parts of a train by looking through our book “Freight Train” by Donald Crews. They observed how the parts are similar and different and if each train part can hold cargo or not. They spent some time drawing out our designs. This week, our 3 year old's will be building a train that can carry one of our Primrose puppet friends! This will be a big challenge, but we are excited and ready for it!
We are proud of our 2019 Pre-K graduates! They are off to do great things and are all more then ready to enter Kindergarten.

Our Primrose Puppets teach us about science, math, literacy but most importantly they teach us compassion! Each of our Primrose Puppets teach us a different positive character development trait!

Join us for our next up coming tour to learn more and to see it in action!

Why We Chose Primrose: Hello! We are the Stucky family. My name is Corey Stucky and my wife’s name is Catherine. Our children are Jillian, who is now 6 years old and Jensen, who is 3 years old. We are proud to say that both our children are Primrose kids! There are several reasons why we chose to send our children to Primrose School. Having travelled extensively in my previous employment, I was aware of the Primrose brand through friends and family who had experienced Primrose positively in other cities. My wife also knew of Primrose through her friends’ experiences as well. Admittedly, out of all the other choices we had in our area, the reasons we finally selected Primrose for our children boiled down to about 3 things; 1) Primrose was ideally located for our childcare needs, affording us a streamlined route between work and home for which our children could be nurtured. 2) Primrose provided the hours we needed for childcare without a drop-off/pick-up restriction that exceeded our ability to honor or maintain. As working parents, we needed a facility that would be open before we are due for work, and after we are scheduled to leave work. Primrose met this need. 3) Primrose was built as an actual school, not simply a converted building or secondary-use facility. It was founded on solid principles focused on developing children to their actual potential. It included transition classrooms and classes, active work assignments allowing our children the opportunity to grow socially, learn phonological skills, self-awareness, pre-writing skills, pre-math skills, and cognitive/critical thinking skills, and share a pre-meal prayer among others. Primrose provided a continuous assessment program from which to evaluate the learning of our children. It reinforced values within our children that are also important to us; a. Be kind to yourself and others b. Use your listening ears and your looking eyes. c. Keep your hands and your feet to yourself. d. Use your walking feet and inside voices in school. To say that I can share the “Rules of the Roost” with you simply means that Primrose doesn’t just work for our children; it works for us, too! We have since learned and experienced that Primrose truly partners with you for your child’s care, well-being, and learning. And most importantly, Primrose provides a platform from which one can offer parental feedback without the risk of indignation or pretense simply because of differing viewpoints. And, perhaps one of the most important things, it provides daily pictures and notes about curriculum and specific feedback on our children that we can share with grandparents, siblings, and others who might enjoy seeing the kids daily and learning about what they are doing. Simply put; we’re thankful that we found Primrose, and appreciative of what Primrose has given to us in kind. Our children, and our family, are better for it. Sincerely, The Stucky Family Corey, Catherine, Jillian & Jensen
Small group "Moon" exploration is soo much fun! We painted moons, made moon dough, read stories and also made our very own 3-D moons! Our children love Science Education!

Join us for Spring Break Week at our West School! School is out and the fun begins!
"Our daughter, Emma, has been attending Primrose Wichita East for 2 ½ years. In that time, she has benefited in learning from the most professional and passionate teachers and staff that we have ever seen. We have observed a high quality, balanced learning environment from the day one. The curriculum is impressive coupled with plenty of play time and hands on activities for the kids. Primrose has set our daughter up for a lot of success in the future.”
Pretending is important in child development. Children learn about themselves and the world. Dramatic play experiences are some of the first ways children learn about their likes and dislikes, their interests, and their abilities. They experiment with role playing and work to make sense out of what they’ve observed. Primrose School is all about it!
"Primrose is not just a school, it is a community. In addition to enthusiastic teachers, great facilities, attention to detail, and an impressive curriculum, Primrose goes above and beyond engaging the children in special experiences. Whether it is a cultural parade, Trunk or Treat, educational presentations by organizations throughout Wichita, or the Caring and Giving Food drive, to name a few, the children are learning well beyond the minimum child care development. We are beyond appreciative of everything Primrose has provided for our family."
When Primrose School leaders and educators go out: We love to get out and explore everything that Wichita has to offer! Our team tried out escapology this past weekend. Some of us escaped and some of us didn't, but that is ok.....we had fun doing it!
Thank you Primrose Parents for believing in our mission and vision. It truly takes a village to raise children and we are honored to be a part of your village. We will continue to keep working hard for you. We would also like to thank our educators for bringing our Balanced Learning Philosophy to life! As owners, we feel blessed to have such a fantastic team of nurturing teachers who prepare our children for kindergarten and life! We would like to recognize our leadership team, curriculum coach and chef. They help connect all the little dots to help ensure smooth daily operations. Rajesh and I couldn’t have asked for a better team to work side by side with. At Primrose Schools our dream is to always inspire a love of learning to children in our community. With the help of a strong external and internal support, Raj and I feel confident that our dreams are coming true! Rajesh & Anjana Owners
Like many families, you are having to make a decision on School for your 3 year old. What to do? Send him/her to a Big Elementary School (with an early childhood education) or to a smaller Early Childhood School that focuses on Early Childhood Education. Our best recommendation is visit Big Schools and Early Childhood Schools to see which one you think will give your child the best foundation. Here are some great questions to ask and think about.
"London has been at Primrose Schools for almost 4 years, and it has been a terrific fit for us! The first time we visited Primrose we were immediately impressed by the friendliness of the staff, a structured program, and many other great qualities that made our choice in Primrose an easy one. London has flourished both socially and academically, and we are confident that she is more than ready for the great big world of Kindergarten next year! She loves her friends and teachers, and looks forward to going to school every day! Thank you Primrose for taking awesome care of our precious little!"
Let's face it, technology is and will be a part of our children's future. At Primrose Schools, our technology is more then just ipads and computers. We teach our preschoolers technology and research as 1 subject. We use pens, microscopes, thermometers, rulers ect. during our technology and research class time! Our certified Balanced Learning educators give children experiences that can come very handy for future complex technology education.
Our little builders have big ideas! Playing with blocks and describing their designs lets our students share their ideas with the world.
Children work on creating sets during small group math! Making sets and groups helps children recognize quantities without counting. Daily hands on practice helps our Primrose children get ready for future complex mathematical operations.
