"We have？growth asWELLINGTON air max 97 schweiz , April 10 (Xinhua) -- The New Zealand government admitted Friday that it might fail to meet its self-imposed target of an operating surplus in its accounts this financial year.


The Treasury's financial statements for the eight months to the end of February showed a deficit before gains and losses of 269 million NZ dollars (203.89 million U.S. dollars).


The accounts followed a slight surplus of 77 million NZ dollars (58.35 million U.S. dollars) in the seven months to the end of January in statements published in March.


Revenue from some tax sources had remained higher than forecast in February, but not as far ahead as in January, said Finance Minister Bill English.


The goods and services sales tax saw a significant shortfall in part due to very low inflation leading to lower-than-expected spending on consumption, English said in a statement.


Government spending in the eight-month period was lower than forecast air max 97 kaufen , and taken over the year, core expenditure for the 2014- 2015 financial year was forecast to be 4.1 billion NZ dollars (3.1 billion U.S. dollars) lower than forecast when the government first set the surplus target in 2011.


"We're continuing to manage the books carefully but lower inflation, while good for consumers, is making it less likely that the final accounts in October will show a surplus for the whole year Nike Air VaporMax 97 Beige Weiß Kaufen ," English said.


Next month's budget would produce new forecasts that he expected would take into account further reductions in the inflation outlook and show how far the government deficit had come since it hit 18.4 billion NZ dollars (13.94 billion U.S. dollars) in the 2010-2011 financial year.


The main opposition Labour Party said the accounts showed something seriously wrong with the government's economic management.


"The reason the government has failed to reach surplus is they haven't been able to get the productive economy humming to generate revenue," Labour finance spokesperson Grant Robertson said in a statement.


The opposition Green Party said the government's tax cuts for the rich and bungled state-owned asset sales had left the accounts in a shambles.


"Bill English has staked his job and his reputation on being able to return the government books to surplus, but he keeps failing," Green Party associate finance spokesperson Julie Anne Genter said in a statement.


ATLANTA Nike Air VaporMax 97 Metallic Gold Günstig , May 7 (Xinhua) -- Recently, there has been a public decry against kindergarten education going more and more similar to the way elementary schools educate. However, these two questions are on the minds of every parent: whether 3-year-olds and 4-year-olds should start learning native language, mathematics and a foreign language? If they don't Nike Air Max 97 UL '17 SE Schwarz Kaufen , are they going to lose the game from the starting line of life? The parents are struggling for appropriate answers to the questions, which also leave kindergarten educators in a dilemma.


As kindergarten education is already an established cause in the developed nations, drawing on the experience of these nations and integrating their resources into domestic education may be one of the best solution to the difficult situation.


Is kindergarten going examination-oriented helpful or harmful?


In recent years, it is common to see kids sitting in classes with textbooks Nike Air Max 97 Ultra '17 Rot Kaufen , learning English, mathematics and reading poems, instead of playing toys. Some of them are even required by their parents to sit English proficiency tests and calculation of abacus examinations.


"I know I should not be so impatient about my kid but the fact that kids in other kindergartens or training services are taught this way keeps worrying me," said a parent in Baoji Sale Herren Nike Air Max TN Schwarz , a city in western Shaanxi Province. "The possibility that my kid will fall behind in grade 1 concerns me."


The parent's misgiving is not groundless. A parent surnamed Zhao in eastern Zhejiang Province said he tried very hard to refrain from giving his kid input of language basics and mathematics during the preschool period as he believed a playful childhood was much more important and it is wrong to instill too much such things into the minds of kids. "And I was dumbfounded when my kid went into the grade 1 because the difficulty of the textbooks and exams were beyond my imagination," he said. "The situation proved me wrong and I hated to learn that my kid was straining to sit tests while other kids were breezing through them."


Actually, the Ministry of Education had asked kindergartens to educate according to the growth stage of the kids and correct content and teaching methods that were similar to primary school in a circular released in 2011. However, the picture has not been much changed over the years.


Different from the mixed picture of the education in preschool in China Damen Nike Air Max Plus TN Ultra Weiß Schweiz , the idea of "Hug First, Then Teach" has been adopted by the public in advanced nations. The idea was initiated by Kids 'R' Kids Learning Academies in the U.S., which also uses a comprehensive growth？assessment？system to？evaluate？kids' aptitude, potential and shortcoming by assessing 10？different？learning domains and 38 different objectives. Kids 'R' Kids will offer diversified education according to the various characteristics of kids.


"We have？growth assessment reports for each child every three months Herren Nike Air Max TN Plus Ultra Grün Kaufen , so our directors, teachers and parents know what growth stage is for every child in our school." Said Wang Lihua, general manager of the Kids 'R' Kids China. "This way we can immediately see if any child needs special attention in any aspect. If a child is found to require additional assistance, at this early stage Herren Nike Air Max Plus TN Ultra Schwarz Weiß Schweiz , professional help can be sought and rendered？before the child reaches elementary school level. "


Knowledge or ability? Which will help kids at starting line?


"Being able to recognize many characters and count well does not mean a successful preschool education for kids," said Zhang Shuqin,
