Healthy Meals & Snacks
|
|
|
Our children's meals and snacks are carefully prepared to be well-balanced and healthy.
We do not serve processed food such as sausages and nuggets. We also avoid serving
food with high sugar and salt content i.e. Quality and fresh ingredients are used.
A lot of vegetables are hidden in our sauces for pasta, porridge and soups. Please
request a sample copy of our menu from our staff.

Ethical Values / Character
|
|
|
Ethical values are a core part of Summer Academy's education of Tomorrow's Leaders.
These values include Respect, Responsibility, Honesty, Empathy and Helpfulness and
are imbedded within all relationships of peers, facilitators, staffs and parents
in our school community. These ethical values are modelled by the facilitators and
are taught to the children and reinforced on a daily basis.

Our students are prepared for entry into all primary schools including Chinese Primary
Schools, Private schools, and International Schools.

Examples of preparations for Chinese Primary School in Kindergarten Two includes:
- Homework in terms of workbooks for various subjects, practice of written Chinese
characters, comprehension exercises and rearranging words to make a sentence common
for Chinese and Bahasa Malaysia.
- Spelling for all languages
- Copying from the board during class

Parents Involvement
|
|
|
Parents are invited to attend an Orientation Day upon enrolment of their children
at Summer Academy. This orientation serves as an introduction to the philosophy
and methods applied at our school and a fun hands-on parenting workshop for parents
on topics relevant in child development.
Summer Academy believes that children will benefit greatly when parents and teachers
work together. Therefore, parent's involvement and volunteer is welcomed and encouraged.
Please let us know if you are interested.
