The head of the kindergarten: "Educating the future, educating for the future" is eaton's group mission, in the education industry, no matter how technology progresses and develops, I think what remains unchanged is our original intention. In Eaton, "Light up wisdom with love, let every child become the best version of yourself." "It is the original intention of our education. We have more than 3,000 caring employees, insisting on guiding and accompanying children to grow up with love as their own, and igniting the spark of wisdom in children's hearts with professional education. I believe that children learn the essence of traditional Chinese culture, understand the world's diverse cultures, cultivate good character, have the ability to create happiness, can cope with future learning and work more confidently and calmly, become better themselves, and become future talents with both Chinese feelings and international vision!
