Philosophy​

Kindness as a Core Value in Early Childhood Education​

At Wonder World Preschool, kindness is not just a virtue—it’s a practice woven into every interaction, lesson, and moment of play. Rooted in the belief that empathy and compassion are skills to be nurtured, our approach to kindness extends beyond politeness to fostering a deep sense of interconnectedness with peers, nature, and the wider community​
