Topic: Empowering Multilingual Children: Strategies to support children from non-English speaking homes

Time: 8 to 9 pm (Singapore Time)


Supporting children from non-English speaking homes requires a comprehensive approach that addresses linguistic, cultural, and emotional needs, while actively engaging their families. By implementing strategies that embrace these aspects, we can create a preschool environment where children not only adapt but thrive. This ensures they have the opportunity to develop and enrich their learning experiences with ease.


We are delighted to invite Ms Kalamathy, Senior Centre Principal from PCF Sparkletots and Ms Lee Hui Huang, Centre Principal at Beyond Social Services c/o Healthy Start Child Development Centre as our resource speakers for this session.
