A Grandparent’s Perspective on Shichida

For many families, the true impact of early education is seen not only by parents, but also by those around the child.

Aunt Annie, a grandmother of four children attending Shichida centres in Sydney, shares her perspective on how the program has supported her grandchildren’s development.

Having observed multiple children go through the program, she has seen consistent and noticeable differences.

Seeing the Difference Across Multiple Children

With four grandchildren attending Shichida, Aunt Annie has had the unique opportunity to observe how the program supports children across different personalities and stages.

What stood out to her was how each child developed greater confidence, became more engaged and showed a positive attitude towards learning.

The changes were not subtle. They were clear, consistent and visible over time.

A Positive and Supportive Learning Environment

A key part of this experience has been the environment created by Shichida.

Aunt Annie describes the teachers as friendly, professional and supportive, creating a space where children feel comfortable and encouraged to participate.

This kind of environment allows children to build confidence naturally and enjoy the learning process.

Growing Confidence and Engagement

Through their Shichida journey, her grandchildren became:

• More confident in expressing themselves
• More engaged during lessons
• More comfortable in a structured learning environment

These changes extended beyond the classroom and could be seen in everyday interactions.

What Makes This Story Unique

This story is especially meaningful because it comes from a grandparent who has observed multiple children.

It highlights that the benefits of the Shichida Method are not limited to one child or one experience.

When the same positive changes can be seen across several children, it reinforces the strength and consistency of the program.

Why This Experience Matters

This story shows how the right environment and guidance can create lasting positive change.

A Family Recommendation

For families considering early learning programs, this story highlights the value of choosing a program that supports both emotional and cognitive development.

The impact goes beyond the classroom and can be seen by everyone around the child.
