About Lorna Whiston Pre-School
Our programmes are conducted using a bi-lingual approach, with both an English-speaking teacher and a Chinese-speaking teacher present in each class. Whether the children are conducting a science experiment or painting a picture, they will be immersed in both languages, thus encouraging a high level of proficiency in both English and Mandarin.
