New Zealand-based not-for-profit education consultancy CORE Education, in partnership with Sun Global Services (a foreign education service provider), has launched 'KiwiLearners Early Learning Centre’ in Chennai.
 
‘KiwiLearners Early Learning Centre’ is led by New Zealand early learning expert Jocelyn Wright and is based on the principles which underpin Te Whariki, the New Zealand early childhood curriculum. “New Zealand has a world class early childhood education system that we believe should be shared with the world. We are delighted to bring KiwiLearners to India and, we believe, to be the first New Zealand-based early learning centre on the continent,” said CORE CEO Ali Hughes.
 
Based in the Neelankarai suburb of Chennai, the centre will cater to up to 70 children aged 2-5 years, as well as a child and parent playgroup for young babies. “We believe that parents are at the heart of the child’s first steps in education, our philosophy is to support parents to be involved in the centre as it enriches the learning experiences for all children.” said centre director, Jocelyn Wright.
 
The centre is currently taking enrolments and will open for children on January 17.
