Curriculum Details
Curriculum type
Local
Curriculum planning
The curriculum is based on child growth development and life experiences of children. The guiding principles are set through scaffolding and spiral approach. Through thematic activities, project learning and teaching with picture books, children’s initiatives to explore and critical thinking are provoked. Our school is also devoted to promoting religious and moral education with a view to providing children with happy elementary learning experiences.
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
The teaching approach is based on ‘play-based-learning’ which aligns with integrated thematic activities, group discussions and project learning. These all enable children to learn from daily life experiences, sensory reception and visits. Our foundation is built on biblical moral education. Therefore, children’s moral values are shaped through real-life experiences such as morning and afternoon assemblies and infused curriculum.
The teaching method ‘Orff Music’ is also adopted. Children’s sensory experiences are enhanced through music, painting, dancing and drama. Their body parts coordination and creativity in art are also developed through the weekly dancing lessons. The annual dancing performance and other celebrating performances also enhance their confidence, co-operation skills and team spirit.
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
Day-to-day observations, assessment and analysis of children’s works are conducted, coupled with children’s rating scales which show the continuous assessment of children’s performances and progress in the learning process. In order to enable parents to better understand their children and promote children’s all-round development, student portfolios are distributed to parents in each term in which teachers’ observations and advice are included.
