About

Kindergarten is an early childhood education level for children under the age of 6. Its curriculum focuses on providing educational stimulation that supports children’s physical and cognitive growth and development, preparing them for the next level of education.

In Indonesia, kindergarten is considered an important early education stage and is often a requirement for entering elementary school. Kindergarten is divided into two groups: Group A and Group B, based on the age of the students. It generally serves children aged 4 to 6 years old.

The lessons are designed to increase children’s interest in learning through a variety of approaches, including moral values, social development, religious education, emotional growth, physical and motor skills, cognitive skills, language, art, and independence. All of these areas are developed to support children’s intellectual growth and their role in society.
