Our schools provide a stimulating, creative and welcoming environment.

My kids are so in love with learning, I didn’t know that Hur really likes to write until I saw hoe happy she was when I printed out the activities you are sending to me. She fights with her brother over the papers to do them. She also asks me to buy red flowers for her teachers, and she said that she loves her teachers. It also means a lot to me because she prove to me that she is in good and safe hands. Mohammed too, he know how to read, to write with a little help from me. He surprised me how good he is in reading and writing in both languages, English and Arabic. Thank you English Playgroup for this great job you are doing with our kids in school and also online now. You are the best. I think I will keep Hur in EPG for FS1 and FS2.

اولا يعطيكم العافيه على مجهودكم المتواصل طوال فترة الدراسة ٥اسابيع
نشكركم على حرصكم على اهتمامكم بابناءنا ايجابيات الدراسة عن بعد تطوير فكر الطالب وحرصة على حل واجباته المدرسية اما سلبياتها عدم اخذ الوقت الكافي في اخذ الخبرة من المعلم وتطوير الذات وعدم قدرة الاهل على استيعاب بعض المفردات لانه في المدرسة الطالب ياخذ الوقت الكافي في الدراسة واستيعاب المناهج الدراسية

“One of the most important decisions is choosing first year school to our children as it will be the base. Once we visit and knew EPG in Salwa we feel comfortable to the subjects, tools & environment. When the year starts we were more satisfied as the culture was so close to a family that leads my daughter to gain a lot of talents and knowledge from FS1 .
We appreciate all the effort done and continues during the curfew in Kuwait. It helps the kids being in the mood of learning, motivation & family spirit to be the best they can be.”
