Our educational philosophy

We educate children with democratic values by enabling each child to have self-determination and creative freedom, so that they can grow up to be self-confident and independent citizens.
We view child development as a holistic process, and in supporting it, we rely on close collaboration between child, parents, and educators to ensure that each child's development is met. We treat every child and adult as an equal, demonstrating acceptance, respect, and appreciation to build a trusting relationship. We encourage our staff to engage in self-reflection so that they can advance their personal development and assume their professional responsibilities. We promote the educational quality of our staff by engaging with contemporary research findings to further develop our educational quality in practice.
