We have been operating since September 1996 and have built up an excellent reputation for being an extremely caring and friendly international pre-school (preschool)/ kindergarten Causeway Bay Hong Kong HK. All of our students have been accepted to international primary school, reflecting the excellent standard of teaching, care, love and devotion each individual student receives at Alison’s Letterland Child Care Centre.

Alison’s Letterland Child Care Centre is a small, warm, extremely caring and friendly International Kindergarten. The centre was described by the EMB of Hong Kong as ‘One happy family for staff, children and parents’. This comment is something that the centre prides itself on and this ethos will always be continued in the school.

Alison set up the centre eleven years ago, wanting to put her knowledge and experience of education into Hong Kong life. As soon as you walk into the centre you get the feeling of a happy and warm environment, smiles and light hearted conversations shared with parents and teachers. Children greeted with and warmth and cuddles! Alison wanted to create a warm and friendly environment and this atmosphere has attracted other educators to send their children to the centre and built up a sense of community, not easily found in HK!

The centre is constantly updating its teaching programmes based around the Early Years Foundation Stage and the Key Stage one, as followed in the UK. There are three groups, Minnie Mouse 2-3 years old, Mouse 3-3.8 years old and Elephant group 3.8 to primary. With an excellent staff ratio of one teacher to 8 children for the Minnie and Mouse group and one teacher to 14 children for the Elephant group. The children participate in a busy and structured timetable, which is based on the six areas of child development. There are always plenty of textile materials and arts for the children to express themselves, along with academic programmes, which always include lots of practical activities too! Fun and confidence are the centre's ethos, along with a sense of pride and achievement; with these skills obtained in the pre-school years the children will most certainly succeed in their future education. All of the children that have attended the centre have been accepted to the International primary school of their choice and have continued to succeed with confidence.

Teachers at the centre are all qualified Nursery teachers from the U.K or Canada and are strictly informed this is the only job you can come to and have as much fun as you possibly can! Teachers have daily contact with parents and helpers, email pictures of the children in action at least twice a month and offer a parent communication book for parents to share their opinions and views about the centre. The monthly year books filled with photographs of the children in action throughout the month are a favourite for all parents! With the warm and friendly learning environment that Letterland is and a team of qualified and caring pre-school teachers what more could a parent ask for?
