About our Schools

The very best possible start in preschool education since 1996.

Alison’s Letterland International Kindergarten was founded in 1996 by Alison Euler. A year later, Baby Buddies International Playgroup and Nursery opened and was the first purpose-operated playgroup in Hong Kong.

Alison is a qualified N.N.E.B (1988) and has a wealth of experience in early childhood education gained in the UK and Hong Kong. Alison’s dream was to create a fun, caring and educational environment for children and their families in Hong Kong. She creates a community feeling within the schools for all her students to remember the beginning of their learning journey as a fun and happy experience.

Alison’s dreams have come true, with the assistance of an incredible team, a passion for teaching and hard work. Alison and her team successfully continue to deliver new child-centred educational programmes based on the British National curriculum Early Years Foundation Stage. The high standard of education in each school is reflected in the success of each child being accepted to international primary schools and thriving in our educational environments. Alison’s philosophy is that each child and their family will leave our classes with a smile.

Baby Buddies International Playgroup and Nursery Alison’s Letterland International Kindergarten have expanded now providing educational services in three locations on Hong Kong Island.

The schools retain a family community feel with a close network of devoted and qualified international teachers truly inspiring your child with a love of learning
