YGLR, Sri Petaling (Tadika Cahaya Li Ren)

Tadika Cahaya Li Ren offers a warm atmosphere designed to inspire positive play and social interactions for children aged 3 to 6 years. The school takes elements from the “Sunshine Li Ren” curriculum and pairs it with locally appropriate practices in order to prepare children for primary school and beyond. It is child-centred and covers the full scope of skills that children should master at this stage so that they can have a happy childhood and a better tomorrow.

Equipped With Developmentally Supportive Facilities

Nestled in the residential area of Taman Sri Endah, this is Tadika Li Ren’s second location. It is brightly coloured with large outdoor areas that is matted and filled with a variety of gross motor equipment, which are all hallmark features of a Li Ren school. Being a school that emphasises learning through activities, play and outdoor exploration, there are many facilities that allow children to discover new concepts and new possibilities. The facilities include outdoor playground, aquaponics, little garden, wishy-washy land, carefully prepared indoor learning spaces with learning corners, library, messy art area, as well as spaces for sand and water play.

For the convenience of working parents, the school offers full day programmes and long operating hours (7.30a.m. to 6.30 p.m.). They are open all year round including school holiday periods, which is also conducive to a consistent environment for children to develop good habits. The daily schedule includes allocated time slots for formal education, after-school activities, and nap and mealtimes. Nutrition is one of the cornerstone values of what Tadika Cahaya Li Ren offers children and their families. Meals boast nutritious breakfasts, lunches and snacks that are prepared from scratch with healthy ingredients daily.

Wide Scope of Learning Activities

Learning here is a fun adventure. It caters to children’s naturally inquisitive state of mind, hence lessons are carried out through a myriad of interactive activities, play-based learning, real-life experiences and outdoor exploration. Children learn about the underlying concepts of how things work and relate them to the world around them. They pick up elements from the following core subjects and they learn how to learn, not just memorise facts.

During these activities, children work cooperatively with friends in groups. Through this social process, they share knowledge with others, and strengthen skills, such as problem-solving and creative thinking, along the way. This mix of learning experiences will lead children to gradually improve their academic, social, emotional and physical skills – the main domains of early childhood development.
