Message from the Head of School
Children learn as they play; most importantly, in play, children learn how to learn.
— Fred Donaldson
I am honoured to welcome you to the Anfield International Kindergarten website as the Executive Headteacher and currently acting Head of School at our Kowloon Tong campus. If you are a parent looking for a kindergarten experience where the team surrounding your child will pay close attention to them socially, emotionally and academically, then you have found the right place.
At Anfield, our Catholic ethos underpins everything that we do, ensuring all members of our Anfield community are treated like ‘family’ and are inspired to aim high from their first educational experience. We pride ourselves on the quality of our teaching staff, delivering excellent teaching and learning through the British Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) curriculum, on a daily basis. Encouraging students to explore through play based activities and hands-on learning opportunities.
I have worked within education for almost 20 years, both in the United Kingdom and internationally, and I am passionate that every child deserves an equal opportunity to develop into ‘being all they can be’ through their learning journey. With eight years of experience at Anfield, I am in the privileged position of having been part of the way in which each of our schools have grown and developed within the ever-changing landscape of education and the provision that we offer to our families.
Whilst at Anfield International Kindergarten, your child will be encouraged to become a lifelong learner, developing into a critical thinker and an ever increasing effective communicator. The atmosphere within our school is one of positivity and opportunity, with our familiarity being a strength in building good relationships with students and parents alike.
Please accept my invitation to come and see our school in action and to speak to members of our high-quality staff team. I look forward to welcoming you to Anfield International Kindergarten and to helping you experience our unique qualities for yourself.
Elise Rees
Executive Headteacher
