curriculum_planning"We structure our curriculum based on the ''Guide to the Pre-primary Curriculum'' to cater to children’s development characteristics and needs and their life experiences. Therefore, our children can learn to learn through play and develop problem-solving abilities, which engenders their potentials and self-learning spirit. We will follow the “Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide” (2017) to plan curriculum. Children of nursery classes will not be asked to write, and there will not be mechanical copying exercises and drills on calculation."
learning_or_teaching_approach_and_activities"We organize activities in a variety of teaching approaches, such as theme-based teaching, group teaching, project-based learning and activity approach. In order to let children get in touch with English from an early age, cultivate their interest in learning English, and guide children to master the experience of language learning from picture books, the kindergarten focuses on the implementation of Shared Reading English picture books that combine various themes, so that children can be exposed to English from an early age and cultivate their interest in English learning.With the focus on bi-literacy and tri-lingualism learning, we engage professional teachers to teach children Mandarin and English courses."
assessment_of_children_learning_experiences"Through continuous observations, records are kept of children’s development in all aspects, with appropriate counseling and follow-up. A further children’s learning assessment sheet is distributed on a monthly basis to give parents an understanding of their children’s performance in all aspects at each learning stage."
