Our Mission
Childhood is a unique and precious stage of our lives. Our mission is to provide our children with a safe, healthy, interesting and interactive environment. We respect children's individuality, we will also help children develop their ability of self care and learn how to co-operate with each other while promote their self esteem. Through quality services, we offer our children an all-round development.
Our Objectives
To promote balanced intellectual, physical, emotional and social development of children, encourage their enthusiasm for learning, and establish good habits of daily lives. The purposes of doing so are to prepare them for entering into schools by achieving a balanced growth both physically and emotionally. To nurture their artistic senses by organising enjoyable cultural events. To assist working parents in educating and taking care of their children, so that they can have peace of mind when going to work. Some corporations also provide child-care services to their staff and their children.
Target Service Recipients
Children aged two to six.
Types of Services
General child-care services, Alternative Day Care Services, Occasional Day Care Services, and special services for mentally and physically challenged children.
Means of Providing Services
We employ teachers who love children and have been professionally trained for pre-school services. The teachers use interactive methods, according to characteristics of child development, ability and interests, to initiate children's self-control and self-determining abilities. Children come across and attain knowledge by actually experiencing them, so that they can make use of their creativity, analysing ability and adventurous spirits.
Scope of Services
