Mandarin Stars

1. Babies, 2. Pre-schoolers, Carers, Mandarin, NSW, Parents, Resources No Comments

The Mandarin Stars program provides immensely enjoyable Mandarin classes for children age 1 to 5 in a structured playgroup with music, movement, singing, dramatic play, art and craft, story telling, games and more in a truly multi-cultural environment!

Our Mandarin Stars develop cognitive, gross and fine motor skills whilst being immersed in the Mandarin language. It’s a playgroup with a difference and designed for families of all nationalities.

Our curriculum has been inspired by Mandarin programs already taught in private, international Pre-schools, Kindergartens and Mandarin Playgroups in Hong Kong and China. With this inspiration, we have blended the Australian ‘playgroup’ approach in delivering our program and as a result, have created stimulating, fun mandarin classes for children age 1 to 5 years.
