Little Fish Childcare Center serves the community with homework assistance, out-of-school educational programmes and childcare services catered for Primary 1-6 children. It is a place that parents can count on to provide a secure and loving environment for their children while they are at work. At the same time, the educational programmes are instrumental in shaping children’s growth and development, giving them tools and assistance to lead productive, successful lives in school.
In the centre, children are offered a diverse range of fun learning experiences and guided to expand their knowledge in 5 core subject areas: Bahasa Malaysia, Mandarin, English, Mathematics and Science. One of the primary aims is for children to develop a sense of themselves as effective learners and to encourage a love of learning in them. The approach concentrates on individual children in a family-focused and supportive way. While teachers strive to keep all children’s learning on track, they also appreciate each child’s individuality – strengths, weaknesses, pace of growth, talents and interests.
The range of learning programmes and services are designed for primary school age children and to provide families with the convenience of long hours and meals included. The centre operates from 7:30 a.m. to 18:30 p.m. Children receive the appropriate nutrients necessary for their growing needs through nutritious homestyle meals and healthy snacks such as fruits. Mealtimes here also encourage children to appreciate food, not to become picky eaters and to develop independence from post-meal cleanups.
