📚 Curriculum
Our kindergarten takes ''child-oriented'' as the core value of the curriculum, it is planned in accordance with children's physical and mental development and learning interests. Our school employs school-based English teachers and Putonghua teachers to promote the language development in both Chinese and English, to develop children to be biliterate and trilingual, and we adopt Operational and Integrated Mathematical Learning in Preschools (OIMLP) and online learning platforms to inspire children's logical thinking, to develop the basic concepts in mathematics and technology. In addition, the school attaches great importance to the cultivation of children's moral character, we educate children to cultivate positive values and the correct attitude to get along with others by using picture books as a teaching tool. Through systematic and physical fitness courses that are suitable for children's development, they can develop children's muscular capacity and build interest and confidence in sports. In order to cultivate children's imagination, creativity and communication skills, our kindergarten also has diverse and interesting art creation, display and appreciation activities. 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
In order to ensure children to have a comprehensive and balanced development, our kindergarten adopts a theme that is daily-life oriented, designing a variety of sensory learning activities in an integrated mode, supplemented by game teaching strategies, and presenting them through different learning forms and activities, such as story creation, English drama, and moral education theater, role-playing, dance performances, natural science exploration, etc. At the same time, we conduct community exploration with children, and provide a fun learning experience through visits, community services, uniform groups, etc.
