Our new name is sekolah bintang timur, and the address is Jalan Bisma No 8 Kampial, Nusa Dua. Telphone number is 0361 – 2151883 , 0813-5398-6464 Our location is 500 meters from the Kuruksetra street, it is a nice and quite environment which is good for the kids to concentrate in class. We have four classes now:
At the moment, we are 7 teachers for preschool and elementary, teaching 51 kids on a daily basis. For Elementary Students we offer English classes, which is separate for reading and writing. Also we have German Classes once a week. Those are taught by volunteers from Germany. Our school's working days are from Monday to Friday, 08.00 – 11.00 for preschool and 08.00 – 12.15 for elementary school. We are not only teaching the basic subjects, but we also help children to build their character and educate them in basic life skills. We are hoping to prepare the next generation not only to become smarter, but also to gain a valuable understanding of good morals and attitude. Besides, we focus on language skills, as we know in Bali as an International destination the language capability is utterly important. Therefore, we want to give the kids the opportunity to get to know more than one language. Bintang Timur The Gembala Baik Pre School Nusa Dua is going through some change.
