How children are taught

Teachers are qualified and have experience in private schools and in national system schools. Nonu Day Nursery School is a registered learning institution. Parents and guardians are asked to send children every day, unless a child is seriously ill. Learning depends on that steady attendance.

Successful learning is a three-party effort. The student, the teacher and the parent or guardian work together. The school follows each child’s progress, assesses regularly, and gives remedial work when it is needed.

For any matter about your child, contact the School Administration Office. You may also ask for the Principal.
