"Henny Penny"

Henny Penny, also known as Chicken Licken or Chicken Little, is a fable in the form of a cumulative tale about a chicken who believes the world is coming to an end. The phrase, "the sky is falling" features prominently in the story. The messages communicated are not only to persevere with a cause but also that rarely is everything as bad as it seems. Henry Penny wanted to spread the message to everyone as we will attempt to do with Henny Penny Libraries.

This initiative emphasises on grooming children from grade I-V for their development as independent learners. The focus is on building early language, literacy and numeracy skills. The aim, as the children move to higher levels, is to equip them to perform at comparable levels when they reach class V. Children are encouraged to play with the alphabets, understand and coin words that they are familiar with. The teaching practices follow the continuum of developing the related listening, speaking, reading and writing skills.
