Curriculum Details

Local
Curriculum planning
Our school plans the curriculum according to the "Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide" (2017) using real-life themes to cater to children's interests and abilities, and we design diversified comprehensive activities which allow children to learn through play and to cultivate children's positive values and attitudes.
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
Game elements, combined with life experiences, are incorporated in learning activities, which can stimulate children’s motivation and interest in learning. Creating an interesting corner and environment with sensory exploration can encourage self-directed learning in children, which can foster problem-solving skills and diversified abilities in a growth mindset. At the same time, group activities, outdoor visits, storybook teaching, life education, mindfulness practices etc. allow children to gain more personal life experiences, which could help them to establish a positive and confident learning attitude.
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
We record children’s learning progress through continuous observation and put together a comprehensive record of children's development in the "personal learning file".

School vision and mission
