📚 Curriculum
Following the “Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide” (2017) and based on the principles of fostering children’s comprehensive development, our Kindergarten has formulated a diversified curriculum. Through six Learning Areas, namely “Physical Fitness and Health”, “Language”, “Early Childhood Mathematics”, “Nature and Living”, “Self and Society” and “Arts and Creativity”, our curriculum aims to help children achieve five developmental objectives, which are “Moral Development'', “Cognitive and Language Development”, “Physical Development”, “Affective and Social Development”, and “Aesthetic Development”. By encouraging children to participate actively in school activities, and arousing their interest and motivation in learning, children will not be afraid of failure, will have the courage to try and will be ready to accept new challenges. Their foundation of lifelong learning will hence be consolidated. 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
Story books will be used to arouse children's learning motivation. Based on children’s abilities and daily experience, specific activities and games will be designed for them, so that children's self-confidence and self-learning abilities will be enhanced. Through diversified learning activities, children's potential will be developed, and they will become active and positive learners. Children will be guided to understand and abide by the rules, to learn good behaviors such as politeness, patience, caring for others, and being willing to share with others. These will help them to develop good habits and conducts, promote the healthy growth of their body and mind, and build up self-confidence and sound self-concept. We will inspire children to understand the mysteries of the universe, the wonders and love of the Creator, and to establish a close relationship with Christ so that children can continue to pursue the truth in the future and establish a sound foundation for their life.
