Brief History
Our nursery school is under the governance of Tung Wah Group of Hospitals. The school commenced operation in 1979 to provide care and educational services for young children in Upper Sau Mau Ping. It was then relocated to the current address in August 1994 upon the redevelopment of the public housing estate. To align with the implementation of Harmonization of Pre-primary Services, the school was registered under Education and Manpower Bureau (currently Education Bureau) as Kindergarten-cum-Child Care Centre in September 2005. It joined the “Kindergarten Education Scheme” implemented by the Education Bureau in September 2017; and received additional fundings from the Social Welfare Department to enhance the childcare services in September 2019.
