FAQs

Why is it important to send my child to a good preschool?

Your child’s early years are of vital importance (0-5 years) as during this time, he/she will develop their cognitive functions, their vision & hearing skills and their language ability. Research shows that brain development occurs when a child is in a stimulating environment in the presence of nurturing adults. When your child attends preschool, he/she will be exposed to multiple learning mechanisms, which will help in his/her overall growth and development.

What skills will my child learn at preschool?

Your child will develop social values through their interactions with other children as well as teaching staff. They will also develop good personal habits by following a structured daily programme. Children who attend preschool will also be able to make better choices and decisions through a process of active thinking and self-discovery.
