 Yayasan Sindrom Down
Kiwanis
• Pusat ini merupakan salah satu pusat pemulihan dalam
komuniti bukan kerajaan.

• Tujuan : membantu murid-murid SD mendapat

pelajaran serta latihan kemahiran hidup sebelum
mereka dihantar ke sekolah khas kerajaan.
 Sejarah
• The idea of a facility to help children with Down
Syndrome was first mooted in 1988 by a group of
Kiwanians from the Kiwanis Club of Kuala Lumpur.
Down Syndrome was decided upon because a
survey showed that there was no organisation to
represent or help children with Down Syndrome at
that time. It was through this initial discussion that
the first Down Syndrome Centre was born. Located
at 59, Jalan Gasing, it started with 35 children with
Down Syndrome on September 1989. The centre
was subsequently declared open by Datuk Dr. Siti
Hasmah, the wife of the Prime Minister of Malaysia,
Datuk Seri Dr. Mahathir Mohamed.
 Sejarah
• To ensure that what was set up would be properly
managed, the Kiwanis Down Syndrome Foundation
( KDSF ) was formed in 1990. The Kiwanis Down
Syndrome Foundation is a non-profit organization
with tax-exempt status. It is committed to the
welfare of children with Down Syndrome, its main
focus being the education of these children below
6 years old.
• The KDSF now manages 7 Down Syndrome Centres
in Malaysia – at Petaling Jaya, Johore Bahru, Klang,
Seremban, Melaka, Kota Kinabalu and Kulai. These
Centres implement the Early Intervention
Programme, a Special Needs Education
Programme using the Robert Dellar’s Curriculum.
 (ISP) – 2 months to 2
years old
• For infants from as young as 2 months to 2 years old.
This programme is used to strengthen infant’s
physical weaknesses (such as low muscle tone)
through physiotherapy and occupational therapy
so that child can achieve early goals, to be able to
crawl; to explore and manipulate objects; to have
better reflexes; memory and sound imitation skills.
 Toddler Programme
(TOD) – 2 to 3 years old
• For toddlers from 2 to 3 years old, TOD builds up on
the child’s skills achieved so far, to help him or her
move on the learning path. However more
emphasis is now given to other skills development
such as early language, pre-academic, story
telling, music and art appreciation, all within an
environment of fun and play.
