The main purpose of this study was to explore the meaning and sugges¬tions for implementation of“total Hakka immersion preschools”as well as the associated challenges. This study adopted a qualitative approach, using focus group interviews for data collection. The interviewees comprised pre-school managers, teaching staff, administrative officials, and heritage lan¬guage preservation experts. The data were analyzed using qualitative meth¬ods. The results clarify the meaning of total Hakka immersion as not only an emphasis on the usage of Hakka language but also its comprehensive promo¬tion in families, schools, and communities, as well as the cultivation of pos¬itive values, attitudes, and a sense of identification towards Hakka language among children. The challenges faced in promoting total Hakka immersion preschools include a lack of enthusiasm, shortage of teachers, and admin¬istrative work pressure. Suggestions for promoting total Hakka immersion preschools include implementing the concept of milestones, having highly enthusiastic leaders to drive community participation, and addressing teacher shortages through preservice and in-service training.
