curriculum_planning"Our curriculum strives to simultaneously integrate the merits of Chinese and Western cultures and education. We design the child-centered Chinese and English school-based curriculum according to children’s physical and mental developmental needs, interest and abilities. We strive to develop children’s learning abilities, establish language foundation in Chinese, English and Putonghua, as well as develop their self-confidence and independence."
learning_or_teaching_approach_and_activities"Through the Thematic Approach and the Project Approach, we develop children’s learning abilities in various aspects. Through integrated teaching and the story-approach, as well as incorporating a variety of diversified learning activities and outings, children are able to gain first-hand experience, explore, study and develop a multitude of hands-on experiences. Children’s communication, collaboration, thinking and problem-solving skills are also strengthened through fun learning approaches and thereby cultivating personal character."
assessment_of_children_learning_experiences"Through continuous observation, we record and assess children’s learning performances. We provide guidance according to children’s individual differences. We create personal development portfolios to record children’s learning progress."
support_to_students"New students’ orientation, to allow parents to accompany their children to attend classes. Talks for parents to better understand the school’s curriculum arrangements. Courses for Lower and Upper students to ensure smooth transition to primary school, for example; primary school visits and primary one simulation. For parents, we organise “Talks on the Primary One Admission Mechanism” and primary one sharing sessions by the parents of our alumni. We also provide counseling and follow-up services for individual children with special needs."
