Memories are made of moments we spent with each other, indoors or outdoors, dancing or playing, or celebrating various festivities. For the children at ELFA Preschool, it\u2019s all about friendship and togetherness as they learn and grow.<\/p>\n

With these in mind, ELFA marked its annual graduation ceremony concert with the theme \u201cTogether We Celebrate\u201d on 20 November 2018\u00ad at the Civil Service Club in Tessensohn Road.<\/p>\n<\/div>

About 50 children from pre-nursery, nursery and kindergarten classes put their best foot forward to present a total of 12 performances. They \u201ccelebrated\u201d Chinese New Year, Mid-Autumn Festival, Christmas, Valentine\u2019s Day and even a Chinese wedding!<\/p>\n<\/div>

Parents and families were in awe of the children\u2019s confidence on stage, the mastery of their lines and clear pronunciation at such a young age. With ELFA\u2019s emphasis on a Chinese-enriched curriculum, it was heart-warming to see the children performing with ease in both English and Mandarin.<\/p>\n<\/div>
