Curriculum planning
|
The school consults educational theories from scholars around the world and works in with factors like children's developmental needs, interests, existing experiences, school resources in preparing a tailor-made curriculum for our students with aims at achieving vision of whole-person education, so as to cultivate them with nine generic skills to live in future society under globalization.
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 / Teaching approach and activities
|
1.We understand the importance of developing potentials and capabilities from early childhood. Therefore, every Wednesdays is set as 'Multiple Intelligences Day' which is a systematic creative syllabus for all children in our school. Various Multiple Intelligences groups are designed and taught by professional trainers from outside and our teachers, in the hope of building on children's strongest assets and helping them become more intelligent by exposing them to a variety of ways of learning. The activities and interest groups are adjusted from time to time according to their interests and needs.
2.Through Life Education, we try to guide students to appreciate life and respect life, and know that life is precious and should be cherished. Further, they will love learning, love their family and love their future career, and hence, live an abundant life.
3. In practice of philosophy of "Learning by Doing" advocated by American educator John Dewey, the school encourages students to "get out of classroom into the community" to learn knowledge as much as possible, so that the first hand life experiences would consolidate the knowledge learned from books. Thus learning will be more specific and relevance to daily life to meet the needs in real life.
|
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
|
Through continuous observation and assessment, art work or homework samples, photo evidences and regular life learning assessment form filled in by family and teachers, it records students' learning outcomes, and distributes the assessment reports after each topic units, so that parents will know their children's learning and growth status.
|
