Leviticus 19 verse 32
Stand up in the presence of the aged, show respect for the elderly and revere your God.
SSDB is an initiative by Early Childhood Development Agency (ECDA) to encourage preschools to create authentic platforms for children to innovate, problem-solve and tap on their unique strengths to help others. This year’s theme is - Many Helping Hands, Caring for Everyone!
This year is Newton Kindergarten Nursery classes fourth year of collaboration with Irene Nursing Home for the Start Small Dream Big project. They want to show their helping hands and care to the elderly in Irene Nursing Home by blessing them with grocery items.
The children from nursery classes were encouraged to pack the grocery items into goodies bags with their parents. Our aim is to inculcate good value to our children and encourage them to give back to the society.
It is our responsibility as early childhood educators to teach the children that no one can do everything but everyone can do something. We also believe that shaping their tomorrow is our greatest hope and goal.
“The Mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires” ~ William Arthur Ward ~
