Riverlife Kindergarten provides fun learning experiences necessary for the holistic growth and development of joyful, life-long learners. Our programmes help children learn about themselves and the world they live in. We provide an environment conducive for the building of friendship, co-operation and respect for others.
Through project work, thematic and integrated learning, children are given opportunities to explore, gather information and share knowledge. Children learn to be observant, imaginative and creative. Being self-motivated and active learners, they are better prepared for the next stage of learning in primary school. |

Language & Literacy
Language and literacy is vital to the development of children’s thinking and learning. Children need to use languages to express their needs, feelings and thoughts. They also use languages to make sense of what adults want them to do. At Riverlife Kindergarten, we provide children with opportunities to extend and enrich their vocabulary and engage them in meaningful and purposeful conversation. View the photos |

Information and Communication Technology (ICT)

Self & Social Awareness
We cannot assume that social and emotional competence will develop naturally as children mature. With successful personal, social and emotional development, children will have greater success in other areas of learning and living.
