HONG KONG CHRISTIAN SERVICE PARIO KINDERGARTEN (SHATIN)

Childhood is a special and precious stage in our life cycle. We strive to provide a safe, healthy, rich and interactive study environment for children to promote their balanced development in intelligence, physical ability, emotion and social intercourse, inspire their interest in study, help them develop a good living habit, promote their physical and mental development, and get them prepared for further study. We arrange rich literary and artistic activities to develop children’s aesthetic and artistic sentiment.

Based on child development theories and researches, we determine the curriculum according to children’s physical and mental development needs and learning interests; and pay attention to children’s all-round and balanced development and uniqueness. 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.

Our curricula feature theme-based teaching and project-based learning, and focus on children’s life experience and physical quality. We provide a variety of Chinese and English reading and play activities, so that children can learn language in a meaningful language context. Every day, we reserve time for news sharing. We also arrange visits, expert interviews, field trips, parent-child activities, etc., and Montessori workshop experience to support children's comprehensive development. We emphasize children’s development in creative arts. In addition to literary and artistic activities, we also hold children's creative art exhibitions, creative drama performances and inter-school children's chorus every year.
