Tung Wah Group of Hospitals "Parents Academy" Programme
Funded by the HSBC 150th Anniversary Charity Programme, Parents Academy is a five-year project commencing in October 2016. This programme conducts cross-community, cross-sector and cross-media parent education to all parents in Hong Kong in the spirit of "endless learning, boundless love" to provide all parents in Hong Kong with developmental and preventive parenting education and help parents build a positive parent-child relationship with their children.
The Nursery School is one of the partners of the programme, in the hope that through the collaboration with community groups and providing diversified parenting education courses and activities, the different needs of parents will be met. By helping parents understand the ideas and values of the individual, setting up a network of mutual support, and discovering and making the best use of internal and external resources for families with the "parent-child relationship" and "emotional education" as the main orientation, parental education courses will be provided according to each children’s developmental stage. We look forward to working together with parents on this journey that is filled with both fun and challenges.
