A child’s character begins at home and continues to develop at school. Character education concerns various aspects, from understanding, emotions to different behaviors. As such, for children to form proper behaviors, the school should then act as an incubator creating exemplary and human practices vividly demonstrating living values as guidance for children’s lives in later years. To this end, “learning to behave, to be well-mannered” is equally important to, or even more important than knowledge and skill acquisition.

“Intelligence plus Character” are the two ultimate goals of a true education, as assessed by Martin Luther King.

TRAINING MOTTO L.O.V.E

Character building does not take a day or a week or a year, but should be continued throughout a child’s life. In the early childhood years, children acquire living values, develop their emotions and often behave in accordance with what they directly receive from their learning environment, from the behaviors of adults, teachers and from the interaction they have with peers. As such, in order to create a positive environment that supports character building and developing, our training motto is L.O.V.E – an acronym, which means LIVE OUR most, cherished VALUES EVERY DAY.
