Our Mission |

|
Bilingual Buds is a unique Mandarin Chinese immersion school for children ages 1-10. We provide children with an opportunity to develop proficiency in Chinese language and literacy, while developing the "whole child" in a child-centered environment. Our mission is to prepare our children to be global citizens who are intellectually curious, culturally aware and linguistically capable. The need for our children to be able to understand and communicate with other cultures will be ever greater in the years to come. We believe that helping a child become bilingual is one of the greatest gifts a parent can give. | ||

Family SupportWe strive to support the parents in their efforts to help their child become bilingual. To this end we provide newsletters, parent education sessions and recommendations of home support materials. Many of our families do not speak Chinese at home and thus, find this support invaluable.Inside our Program
