Seagull Schools has been educating the children of Honolulu, HI, since 1971, and for over 40 years their preschool curriculum has emphasized teaching kindness and compassion. When your child attends Seagull Schools, they will learn to interact with one another gently and mindfully, exploring math, music, reading, and science together.

By age five, a child should understand basic manners — how to politely and graciously speak and act with others. At Seagull Schools, manners are emphasized in order to ensure physical and emotional security. Below, you can read about three concepts your child will learn at this early childhood education center:

• Respect Physical Space: When children learn not to hit or punch each other, they learn to treat others the way they hope to be treated. Also, children will learn not to grab toys out of their classmates’ hands, how to respect their classmates’ desk space, and more. When it comes to preschool learning, physical safety and respect are essential.
• Share Favorite Toys: Sharing teaches children about caring for the happiness of others. When children share and see how happy their friends are, they will make an important connection — what makes themselves happy may also make their friends happy. Also, group play teaches children how to work with others. Sharing is not only caring — it's also a great teacher!
• Say "Please" & "Thank You": These simple words can show deep appreciation. When children learn to say “please” and “thank you,” these gentle remarks become second nature to them. Also, when their friends start saying “please” and “thank you” to them, they’ll see how good it feels to receive kind words.

At Seagull Schools, your child will be their teacher’s first priority, especially when it comes to learning manners in a kind and compassionate setting.
