Tadika Diyana is a purpose-built kindergarten offering total development for children. We started in 1985 with four classrooms and have grown to our present spacious premises, which is equipped with 25 classrooms, a computer room, library, cultural room, multi-purpose hall, outdoor play area, playhouse, music room, sick bay, canteen and field.
Tadika Diyana utilises a Thematic Teaching Approach in our education programme and are guided by the Montessori philosophy. Thematic Teaching is offered both in the morning (English) session and afternoon (Mandarin) session. There are ten academic months in each year, and each month boasts a different theme. Themes include flowers, animals, me and myself, me and my family, careers, science and the environment, and so on. The theme of the morning and evening sessions of each month is different.
The teachers, all with a background in Early Childhood Education, use an integrated teaching method combining story telling, discussion, art, music, pictures and other non-monotonous activities to encourage children to learn. Children absorb knowledge differently and the combinations of varied teaching methods help create an interest in learning.
Tadika Diyana also offer optional after school extra-curricular activities such as ballet, art and craft, speech and drama, mini-tennis, mini-badminton, basketball, soccer, taekwondo, modern dance, science discovery class, Lego bricks, agama class and so on. The full list can be downloaded on our Programs and Downloads section.

HAPPY MALAYSIA DAY
Dear Parents,
Tadika Diyana wishes all our parents and children HAPPY MALAYSIA DAY!
Did you know?
Malaysia Day is held on September 16 every year to commemorate the establishment of the Malaysian federation on the same date in 1963. It marked the joining together of Malaya, North Borneo, Sarawak, and Singapore to form Malaysia. The formation of the new federation was planned to occur on June 1, 1963, but was later postponed to August 31, 1963, in order to coincide with the sixth Hari Merdeka. Several issues related to the Indonesian and the Filipino objection to the formation of Malaysia delayed the declaration to September 16 of the same year. The postponement was also done to allow the United Nations team time to conduct referendums in North Borneo (now Sabah) and Sarawak regarding the two states participation in a new federation.
The formation of Malaysia was made possible through the introduction of the Malaysia Bill to the Malayan Parliament on July 9, 1963, and consent from the Yang di-Pertuan Agong on August 29, 1963.
Beginning year 2010, September 16 is a federal public holiday.(*info extracted from Wikipedia)

Dear Parents,

The effort for independence was spearheaded by Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj, the first Prime Minister of Malaysia, who led a delegation of ministers and political leaders of Malaya in negotiations with the British in London for Merdeka, or independence along with the first president of the Malayan Chinese Association (MCA) Tun Dato Sir Tan Cheng Lock and fifth President of Malaysian Indian Congress Tun V.T. Sambanthan. Once it became increasingly clear that the Communist threat posed during the Malayan Emergency was petering out, agreement was reached on February 8, 1956, for Malaya to gain independence from the British Empire. However, for a number of logistical and administrative reasons, it was decided that the official proclamation of independence would only be made the next year, on August 31, 1957, at Stadium Merdeka (Independence Stadium), in Kuala Lumpur.
