📚 Curriculum
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.
🎯 Teaching Approach
We organize activities in a variety of teaching approaches, such as theme-based teaching, group teaching, project-based learning and activity approach. To enhance children’s language competence and self-confidence, we include drama elements to our curriculum, and provide children with an opportunity of playing different roles, in which they can show their love for others. With the focus on bi-literacy and tri-lingualism learning, we engage professional teachers to teach children Mandarin and English courses.
