Dr. Choi Yuk Lin, JP, Under Secretary for Education visited the Association’s Tsuen Wan Nursery School, in the company of Mr. Sze Chun Fai, Jeff, Political Assistant to Secretary for Education and Ms. Wong Lai Kuen, Vicky, Senior Service Officer, to learn about the school curriculum and operation.

The school principal, Ms. Fung Yu Yee and two senior teachers explained the work of HKYWCA’s early childhood education, school background, and characteristics of the curriculum to our guests. "Love + Reading" and “Family Wellness Vitamins" were introduced as two important programmes of our early childhood education and can help children to develop reading habits and morals. Moreover, environmental friendly policies have been implemented in Tsuen Wan Nursery School for ten years. Students learn about indoor air quality, noise control, waste management, reduction of food waste etc. through regular classes, activities and school facilities. Teachers also lead kids to put what they have learnt into practice and call for green living.

In order to know more about the school’s green measures, the guests were invited to observe how we conduct lessons, and walk around the school to take a look at the food waste disposal machine and planting area on the rooftop. The guests appreciated the effort and performance of the school on promoting environmental protection education which has effectively involved teachers, kids and parents.
