Message from Mr. Conrad Head of Kindergarten
Dear Kindergarten Parents and Friends, Welcome to Nantawan International School Kindergarten.
On behalf of all the Kindergarten Teachers, Teacher Assistants and I, we would like to say thank you so much for entrusting your child to our care.
At Nantawan International School Kindergarten, we dedicate ourselves in providing every child with the opportunity to learn, to enhance their holistic development and growth, as well as to recognize their individual gifts and talents. Everyday when you endorse your child to the Homeroom Teachers, we want you to feel confident and secure that the support, guidance and care you give to your child at home will also be extended at school.
In our best effort to improve the Kindergarten curriculum, the students in all levels (K1 to K3) are now taking weekly classes in Computer, Music, Art, Swimming and P.E. in addition to having daily classes in English, in Chinese and in Thai from Monday to Friday.
Our Kindergarten Teachers are best qualified in view of their Educational qualification and previous work experiences. We vouch for their skills in working with little children as well as their proven patience in understanding the different and distinct behaviors and characteristics of each child in the classroom conducive to a healthy learning environment.
Thank you for giving us the chance to serve you and your child. We look forward to meeting you at Nantawan International School where your child will have all the opportunities of a strong foundation intellectually, physically, emotionally and socially.
Sincerely Yours, Mr."C"
Kindergarten at Nantawan International School
At Nantawan International School, Kindergarten is custom-made for beginners aged 3 – 5 years old. Teachers attentively and with care guide our children as they spend their time in a big group, in little groups together, or even working alone so that they can be at ease. Since children are "doers", Nantawan International School emphasizes on reality and action, on work children do and activities they carry out. Children are given the chance to use their hands and to work on tools. Our teachers do not teach children by talking at them, or giving grown-up lectures. Rather, our teachers allow active children to be involved in the best way 3 – 5 year old children can learn.
Our Kindergarten children are given the time to expand their love of learning, their ability to get along with others, to develop their general knowledge and their interest in reaching out to the world. Nantawan International School encourages the growth of Kindergarten children's self-esteem, their individual strengths, their independence, and their cultural identities. All children are provided with the necessary assistance, guidance and direction in growing physically, intellectually, emotionally and socially.
Nantawan International School Kindergarten thoroughly prepares children to transition them from Pre-School to Primary Grades keeping in mind that children still get to be children.
The Curriculum
The Nantawan International School Kindergarten curriculum emphasizes on developing the best potential of each child through meaningful play and literacy development geared toward fluency in English, Chinese, and Thai languages. Hands-on learning methods with emphasis on child-centered activities, provide children with the opportunities to explore the world around them thus making learning fun and enjoyable.

- Personal, Social and Emotional

- Knowledge and Understanding of the World
