Carry out high-quality whole-person education, inspire multiple intelligences, and plant the seeds of virtue.

LOCK TAO CHRISTIAN KINDERGARTEN has always been committed to providing high-quality holistic education, based on the needs of young children, and nurturing them to grow up healthily and happily with love. Principal He Minyin is well aware that early childhood is an important period of enlightenment. Therefore, in recent years, she has actively contacted organizations outside the school to promote cooperation between home, school and society, and promote teaching, research and diversified development. The school promotes multicultural integration, cultivates children's correct values ​​and attitudes, and lays the seeds for their growth. It not only lays the foundation for entering the primary school of their choice, but also enables them to face future challenges confidently, actively and positively.

Introducing rich teaching resources to promote the development of early childhood education

Principal He attaches great importance to teaching and research and conducts in-depth research on children’s development needs. Therefore, the school has established close ties with a number of off-campus institutions, and has been maintaining close cooperation with the Education University of Hong Kong, the Chinese University of Hong Kong and other institutions to introduce rich teaching resources and promote the development of early childhood education through various projects. For example, the school participated in the Child Development Research Project of the Education University of Hong Kong and invited experts from the School of Education of the University of Hong Kong to the school to provide professional guidance and teaching demonstrations to enhance the effectiveness of "learning and teaching".

In addition, Principal Ho, as a member of the Alumni and Principals Association of the School of Education of the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the Vice Chairman of the Early Childhood Education Course Alumni Association, has also provided more cooperation opportunities and professional support for the school's teaching and research work. In the future, the school will cooperate with Yew Chung Early Childhood Education College to inject new impetus into school development and teacher professional training, creating good growth conditions for students' learning.

Organize a uniform team and cultivate personal development

The uniform team plays an important role in the personal development and discipline cultivation of young children. The school made full use of the resources of the Education Bureau to organize a flag-raising team, allowing students to learn Chinese foot drills and raise the national flag, and participate in Hong Kong's National Security Law activities. At the beginning of the year, students from the flag-raising team won the "Outstanding Award" at the Hong Kong Flag-raising Team's 2025 Infant Team Annual Review Ceremony and Parent-Child Activities. Principal Ho described the students' performance as focused and dedicated. Through the flag-raising team activities, the seeds of patriotism, discipline, values ​​and attitudes were rooted in the students' hearts and improved the effectiveness of national education.

At the same time, the school also actively promotes the Little Scout Uniform Team, emphasizing the spirit of "loving God, loving people, and loving the country", and uses Scouting, an international organization, to help children broaden their horizons and build a sense of social responsibility, values, and teamwork skills. After students enter primary school, they can continue to participate in Scouting activities and connect with the Scout system in primary school to form a continuous and stable values ​​education. Last year, the school's Little Scout Brigade 1807 won the "Outstanding Brigade Award", which reflects the practical value of Scouting activities in early childhood education and affirms the hard work of teachers and students.

Gathering community strength, home and school care together

The school is committed to promoting home-school cooperation and becoming a solid backing for parents to educate their children. On the one hand, the school implements a home-school-social linkage strategy to bring together community forces to support parents. By joining the Sai Kung District Parent-Teacher Association, parents can participate in various activities through the community network, such as mental health lectures, parent-child exchange groups in the Mainland, and golf activities. In addition, there are also parents from the medical field in the school who can provide professional advice and form a support network for family, community and school doctors. Through various in-depth cooperation, the school's various policies can be continuously optimized to support the all-round growth of students.

On the other hand, the school regularly organizes parent education and parent-child activities. For example, participating in the Education Bureau's "Positive Classroom" program teaches parents how to educate children in a "true, fast and accurate" way. The school also invites experts to hold lectures and workshops, such as early childhood moral education lectures, 6A character education "Acceptance and Appreciation" parent lectures, and workshops on the importance of Chinese art to early childhood development, allowing parents to obtain practical teaching suggestions from experts' sharing. In addition, in order to allow parents to have a deeper understanding of their children's learning results and campus life, the school regularly holds parent observation days to encourage parents to enter the classroom, participate in their children's learning, and grow up happily with them.

Pay attention to multicultural integration and improve the quality of teaching and learning

The school's enrollment has always been very diverse. In addition to students from the Chinese-speaking area, there are also students from different countries such as South Korea, Pakistan, the United States, the Philippines, Argentina, India and Italy. It is like an international kindergarten. Therefore, the school attaches great importance to multicultural integration and develops various strategies to help non-Chinese speaking students grow. The school’s teaching team has received professional training to support non-Chinese speaking students and can teach according to the needs of students of different nationalities. Earlier, the school invited experts from the Education University of Hong Kong and the education team to share strategies and experiences in language teaching and supporting the learning of non-Chinese speaking children, and to provide professional guidance on curriculum development. At the same time, the school also arranges social workers and other support services to improve the quality of teaching and learning through multi-sector assistance.

Guide the correct use of technology and build information technology literacy

In today's generation, technology and artificial intelligence (AI) have become a general trend, penetrating every corner of life. Therefore, values ​​education has become increasingly important, especially teaching students how to use technology correctly. Since the students are still young, teachers will guide them to pay attention to screen viewing time, let them understand that they cannot abuse technology, gradually develop the habit of self-discipline, and learn to plan and allocate their own time. The values ​​established in kindergarten will help them manage and control themselves as they advance to primary and secondary school and face further learning and more challenges, enabling them to harness technology rather than be controlled by it.

Natural value education cultivates healthy body, mind and soul

In order to broaden students' learning horizons and stimulate curiosity, the school extends the learning environment outside the classroom, leading students to contact nature and cultivate a healthy body, mind and soul. The school has an aquaponics system, and with the support of the Jockey Club Foundation, it has established a "Pamper Pavilion" where Chinese turtles are raised, allowing children to get up close and personal with small animals. Through daily feeding and care, they can intuitively understand the meaning of "life needs care".

The school also cooperates with the School of Veterinary Medicine of City University of Hong Kong to launch a senior program, allowing the children of the "Pampering Pavilion Student Ambassador" to come into contact with veterinary seniors and learn about the knowledge of caring for small animals. The school hopes to teach children the importance of respecting and cherishing life through interactions with animals, and to cultivate the values ​​of empathy, commitment, responsibility and hard work through the process of caring for animals.

In addition, there is a small garden outside the campus for students to conduct outdoor exploration and learning activities, such as observing plants, butterflies and birds. This not only allows children to enjoy a pleasant campus life, but also cultivates their gratitude, appreciation and love for nature, so that they can have a healthy body, mind and soul and a happy childhood.

Irrigating seeds with love, educational achievements are highly recognized

The school has been deeply involved in the field of early childhood education for many years, sowing countless seeds of love, irrigating them with love, guiding and accompanying children to grow up healthily. From the details of campus life, we can see that education has achieved remarkable results: children look forward to going to school, spontaneously take on responsibilities such as "feeding fish" and "watering flowers", and transform values ​​such as "hard work" and "sense of responsibility" into actions and deeply ingrain them in their hearts. This is what the school has always insisted on, making education not only limited to the imparting of knowledge, but also focusing on spiritual growth.

Over the years, the school has not only been committed to sowing the seeds of growth for children, but has also established a good reputation for its high-quality teaching. Parents in the community have spread the word by word of mouth, and many brothers and sisters have enrolled in the school one after another, reflecting their affirmation of the school's education. Earlier, when Principal Ho received CUHK college students for a visit and exchange, he even met alumni who were students there. These "seeds" sown back then have now blossomed and become a "new force" devoted to education, contributing to social development.
