Kindergarten to hold Graduation Day Sunday

KUCHING: This Sunday (Oct 30) will be a big day for the children of Sarawak Buddhist Association Kindergarten as they will be celebrating their Graduation Day together with their families, teachers and friends.

As it is a very special occasion, the kindergarten will have as guests- ofhonour Minister of Local Government, Senator Datuk Dr Sim Kui Hian and chairman of Sarawak Buddhist Association, Datuk Dr Tay Chin Kin.

In conjunction with the graduation ceremony, the children will be performing in a year- end concert themed ‘Humanity Around the World’ to reflect the moral values and social responsibilities they will carry throughout their lifelong journey.

Sarawak Buddhist Association Kindergarten was established in 1986. For the last 30 years it has upheld the principle of education for all, with no child to be left behind. The kindergarten has been constantly upgrading its teaching capability in terms of professional standards and teaching strength.

In terms of curriculum approach, the kindergarten adopts an integrated pedagogy that includes Language Literacy in English, Malay and Chinese languages, Science and Mathematics, Social and Emotional Development, Creative and Critical Thinking Skills, Physical Development and Moral Education.

In line with the government’s policy to promote the English language, the kindergarten has put special emphasis on learning it. Last year, it ran an oral language acquisition and critical listening programme entailing a multisensory approach that achieved a high level of student engagement.
