What We Do Best
We believe that children thrive in an environment which values their own uniqueness, while providing support and opportunities to grow emotionally, socially and creatively. By building on each child’s strengths, interests and curiosities, we guide each child to explore the world around them as well as develop new abilities and form close relationships.
UK Qualified Teachers
Qualified early years and primary school teachers with extensive experience teaching in schools in the UK, Switzerland and Hong Kong.
Warm, Friendly Environment
Our dedicated staff is committed to providing a supportive and safe environment where your child can explore and thrive. It is important to us that the children are happy at Shooting Stars and that the playroom is filled with positive energy. This includes fantastic relationships with parents.
English Preschool
All of our teachers are native English speakers. We continually extend the children's learning through language rich interactions. Daily story time is a highlight for both children and teachers.
Child-centered Learning
We look at the child’s interests and experiences and listen to their ideas. This helps us to meet the needs of each individual child. We provide activities that the children can take ownership of and explore independently.
