Located in Happy Garden, with its diverse facilities, unique educational approach, and unwavering commitment to the well-being of each child, the kindergarten offers an exceptional learning environment that nurtures young minds.
In the world of Piccoli Kindergarten, the facilities are designed to inspire creativity, foster social development, and promote holistic growth: The Piazza, a dynamic space filled with dressing capsules and a puppet theatre, ignites children’s imaginations and encourages dramatic play. The Atelier, equipped with a wide range of creative resources such as clay and art materials, enables children to explore their artistic talents and express themselves freely. The Kitchen and Dining Area not only provides nutritious meals but also serves as a platform for personal and social development during mealtimes. The Outdoor Space offers an array of engaging activities, including a playground, sensory garden, muddy kitchen, little farm, and sand and water play. This allows children to learn and thrive beyond the confines of traditional classrooms. Additionally, reading corners, music corners, and light and shadow rooms further enrich the learning experience, creating an immersive environment for children.
At Piccoli Kindergarten, the educational philosophy is inspired by the renowned Reggio Emilia approach, combined with the Malaysian National Preschool Curriculum (KSPK). This unique blend creates a holistic learning experience that nurtures each child’s innate curiosity and supports their individual growth. Here, children are prioritized as active participants in their learning journey and are viewed as capable, curious and individuals who are full of potential. The Reggio Emilia approach emphasizes the role of the environment as the “third teacher,” acknowledging that the physical space, materials, and resources play a vital role in shaping children’s learning experiences. It encourages hands-on exploration, and a focus on creativity and problem-solving skills. By integrating the Malaysian National Preschool Curriculum, Piccoli Kindergarten ensures a comprehensive and well-rounded education that prepares children for the next step in their academic journey – primary school.
One of the distinguishing features of Piccoli Kindergarten is its emphasis on loose parts play and outdoor activities. Loose parts play involves providing children with open-ended materials like sticks, stones and soil, stimulating their imagination and problem-solving skills. This approach fosters creativity, critical thinking, and independence, allowing children to construct their own unique play experiences. Furthermore, the outdoor nature play at Piccoli Kindergarten offers countless benefits. It not only promotes physical development and boosts immune systems but also fosters a deep connection with the natural world, encouraging environmental awareness and appreciation from an early age.
Additionally, on Saturdays, Piccoli Kindergarten offers playgroup enrichment activities inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach. Bring your children to experience the wonders of these learning opportunities, and watch them unleash their creativity and embark on a journey of self-discovery!

Furthermore, to ensure the safety and security of every child, the kindergarten maintains full CCTV surveillance, giving parents peace of mind.
