ABOUT
​MISSION AND HISTORY
“It is our mission to support parents by offering education, arts, and recreational services for their children to develop and embrace encouragement, motivation, and stimulation, all while having fun.”
​
Our development started on May 11, 2017 when we've decided to somehow fix the issues of student drop-outs and decreased graduation rates. We believe that the demolishing of schools, and suspended in-house programs and activities may have something to do with the lack of excitement children have when it comes to learning. For better results, we aim to re-invent the programs and activities that were forgotten, and add a twist that will encourage children to learn and discover their true inner-senses, talents, and more.
