Curriculum Details

Local
Curriculum planning
We provide children with an opportunity to understand the “Love” of Jesus Christ so they will grow up in an environment to love and be loved. We set teaching objectives according to the school guidelines of the Education Bureau and the Catholic Diocese of Hong Kong and children's physical and mental development and life experience. We aim to help them learn and gain new knowledge and skills, form an active learning attitude and develop potentials and problem solving ability.
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
We provide interesting activities (such as religious education, English, Mandarin, visiting, trips, mock activities, project-based learning, inquiry and little experiments) to help children develop an active learning attitude, develop creativity and thinking ability and practice in life.
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
We have on-going observation and analysis on the progress of each child and prepare a Children’s Growth Portfolio.
School Characteristics
School vision and mission
Carrying forward the Christian spirit of caritas and serving others, we teach children to be grateful and cherish and love life following the example of St. Francis of Xavier and train children as future builders of the society. Taking Christ as the foundation of our education, we pass the spirits of unswerving determination and bravery of St. Francis of Xavier on to children and educate children to respect and love their friends, be confident and solve their own problems.
Support to students
During the adaption period of new students, we organize activities and workshops together with community groups and professional agencies. We also invite incoming students to take part in the parent-child activities to help the parents and their children learn more about the school life.
Support to non-Chinese speaking (NCS) students
Arrange interpretation/translation services; create an enriched language environment for mastery of the Chinese language; create an inclusive learning environment to facilitate students' integration; facilitate professional development for teachers to develop effective strategies to help NCS students learn Chinese.

Other activities / communication with parents
