A Reggio-inspired preschool for Tabanan families

Tabanan has no shortage of good, warm, traditional schools. What it hasn't had is a small, play-based, Reggio-inspired option close to home. That's the gap Untuk Anak was built to fill — without asking your family to become something it isn't.

Roughly 15–20 minutes from Tabanan town centre.

Why do families from Tabanan choose Untuk Anak?

You don't have to drive to Canggu for this approach

Families used to make a 60–90 minute round trip for child-led, project-based learning. From Tabanan town, we're a 15–20 minute drive.

Learning that respects Balinese childhood

Nature, food, ceremony, family and community are already part of how children here grow up. We build our projects around that rather than importing a curriculum that ignores it.

Real literacy and numeracy, without worksheets

Phonics and number sense are taught deliberately — through provocation, story, cooking, measuring and building. Parents worried about 'readiness for SD' consistently tell us this is what convinced them.

One teacher who knows your child, not a rotating roster

Small groups mean the person who greets you at drop-off can tell you what your child actually did today.

Questions from Tabanan parents

Is there a Reggio Emilia preschool in Tabanan?

Yes — Untuk Anak Learning Space in Kediri, Tabanan is Reggio-inspired: mixed-age groups, child-led projects, documentation of learning, and open-ended natural materials. It's a 15–20 minute drive from Tabanan town.

Will my child be ready for primary school?

That's exactly what our literacy and numeracy work is for. Children leave us reading with phonics, confident with numbers, and — just as importantly — able to ask questions, wait their turn, and keep going when something is hard.

Do you teach in Indonesian?

Yes. Our days are bilingual. Indonesian children are never asked to abandon their first language, and English arrives naturally through play, song and daily routine.
