HONG KONG CHRISTIAN SERVICE PARIO NURSERY SCHOOL (TAI PO)

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, 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; we help parents working out to take care of and educate their children.

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. Every day, we reserve time for news sharing. Apart from teaching activities, we also arrange visits, expert interviews, field trips, parent-child activities, etc. We emphasize children’s development in creative arts. In addition to literary and artistic activities every afternoon, we also hold children's creative art exhibitions and creative drama performances every year. We promote programme which includes diversified teaching strategies to meet the peculiarities of children and promote their holistic development. Additionally, we also develop our school-based mathematics curriculum, and also provide a variety of Chinese and English reading and play activities, so that children can learn Chinese and English in a meaningful language context.
