Many parents with children under three often contemplate whether to send their kids to preschool or not. 3Q MRC Junior, Kampar Ipoh is the perfect place to give children the head start they need.

Most importantly, they learn to share and get along with others at a young age, while they figure out how to regulate their emotions. Many previous students from this kindergarten enter primary school with stronger basic math concepts, richer pre-reading skills, and better social-emotional skills than peers from other schools.
