Oriental Wise Early Childhood Center
Nurtured to be confident and positive global citizens with both Chinese cultural heritage and international perspectives.
Oriental Wise Early Childhood Center (OWECC) is the first bilingual kindergarten in Dubai, which is a subsidiary of Oriental Wise Education. Officially approved by the KHDA, OWECC primarily uses the Chinese Kindergarten Curriculum stipulated by the Chinese Ministry of Education. OWECC aims to support children in an enriching and multilingual environment (English, Chinese, Mandarin, and Arabic) during their early childhood development. Through immersive teaching, we unleash children’s potential and maximize their cognitive development, which will benefit them not only in language acquisition but also in non-cognitive development and creativity development.
