As the manager of Kids in Action Preschool and Childcare Center in Kaduwela, it brings me great joy to share the remarkable impact. Our innovative approach to early childhood education has had on our young learners. Through the implementation of internationally recommended teaching methods and the provision of abundant space for exploration and play, we’ve cultivated an environment where children not only thrive but also develop a lifelong love for learning. Our curriculum is carefully crafted to encompass the best practices in education, including the renowned AMI teaching methods, which prioritize active based learning to engage children’s curiosity and foster their cognitive development. In addition to core subjects, such as literacy and numeracy, we integrate activities like dancing and singing to promote creativity, mindfulness and holistic growth. The progress and achievements of our students stands as a testament to the effectiveness of our approach. It’s incredibly rewarding to witness their impressive growth and development, knowing that we’re playing a pivotal role in shaping their bright futures. At Kids in Action, we are dedicated to laying the foundation for lifelong success by providing a nurturing and stimulating environment where every child can flourish. Join us on this journey of learning and discovery, where together, we’re empowering the next generation to reach their full potential.

Center Manager – Malabe
It gives me immense pleasure to share my thoughts. As the Head of the Kids in Action Malabe branch, I am happy to say that my team is committed to creating a caring and safe atmosphere that promotes emotional, social, and academic development. We aim to nurture our students into fine human beings by imparting quality education and inculcating human values. We provide a creative environment, which is both stimulating and challenging. Children learn best through doing and we give ample opportunities to explore experiment and discover with hands-on equipment and materials in an adult-directed setting. At Kids in Action Pre-School will give much importance to imaginative and play way methods, especially in Play Group and Nursery. Therefore, the curriculum we follow promotes learning through music, art, dance and various activities. I believe that with the constant support of the parents, we will continue to make learning a joyful and meaningful experience.

The role of education in today’s era is not only to pursue academic excellence but also to ensure the overall development of a child. That is precisely what we try to achieve at KIA Kesbewa. I strongly believe in the importance of teachers, parents, and administrators collaborating and communicating openly to accomplish our common goal, which is to provide young children with a chance to grow towards their full potential in an environment that promotes belonging, dignity, and hope.
