Happy Lunar New Year 2022

Happy Lunar New Year 2022, the Year of the Tiger – to all our ELC families and community! 新年快乐

ELC has been awash in flashes of red with the children adorned in their beautiful clothing to join in the celebrations. They have enjoyed learning about the origins of Lunar New Year and participating in games and dance.

In Chinese mythology and culture, the tiger is considered to be the king of all animals, symbolizing courage, vitality, growth, leadership, and confidence. Let us look forward to this year with these qualities to overcome challenges, welcome the opportunity to renew our connections with one another, and strive for good health and wellbeing.

We wish all who celebrate a joyous occasion with their families an auspicious year ahead!

Co-Constructing a Climate-Resilient Future: Putting Our Trust in the Children

On UN Earth Day this week, our Head of The City School, Dr. Lea, and our Y1-2 Project Coordinator, Ms. Sam, presented a webinar to the international educational and development community entitled ‘Co-Constructing a Climate-Resilient Future: Putting Our Trust in the Children’, with a participating audience of professionals from Bangladesh to Ethiopia, Nepal to the US. Hosted by the Asia-Pacific Regional Network for Early Childhood, and in collaboration with Save the Children, our educators showcased how ELC’s The City School is committed to empowering children to prepare for climate resilience and work for sustainable development, and how our Reggio Emilia approach to education cultivates those skills and character for our children to be world-changers.
