Launching of ‘Tadika Nalanda’

Nalanda will be launching our first kindergarten – ‘Tadika Nalanda’ – in January 2019. We wish to provide holistic education for children’s integral growth from a very young age. Kids aged 3 and 4, and pre-schoolers aged 5 and 6, will be taught essential knowledge and skills as well as values to shape wholesome characters. Applying experiential teaching methods, we will inspire children to develop love for life-long learning.
