Kindergarten Centre

Project Code: THCT-2200190 | Project Location: Bangkok, Thailand

Key Statistics

Born out of necessity, the Kindergarten Centre was created as a safe place for the children of women who attended the Fatima Training Centre (FTC), another Catholic Mission-supported project. The Kindergarten Centre allowed mothers to be assured their children were taken care of while they were at work, making handicrafts for sale, learning new skills and earning an income. It has now grown to accommodate children from poor families in the neighbourhood whose parents need to go to work and cannot care for their children during the day.

About the project

Those who live at the Mother and Baby Home who already have young children can relax knowing their children will be safe and cared for while they focus on their pregnancy. Each child is provided with a safe space to access education, health care and nutritious meals.

The Centre aims to build a foundation for children to develop positive self-worth in an environment where they can learn and grow safely.

The Kindergarten aims to:

Help children in difficult situations access education, promoting mental, emotional, and social development of children.

Provide children with a safe space to learn and grow. Additionally, the Kindergarten seeks to foster collaborative relationships with families for better childcare.
