Curriculum & Approach
The school is operated under the Hong Kong Society for the Protection of Children, our mission is to provide children with happy, caring, safe and diverse learning environment; to establish solid foundation for children's life-long learning; to inspire children's potential and holistic development. In addition, the schools provide support and partnership with parents, and to develop children's good habits & self learning.
Curriculum arrangement corresponds with the children’s development characteristics and needs. It covers different fields of study, and it enriches children’s learning experience according to their 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.
Emphasis is placed on the little things in the daily life of children, learning through direct experience, stimulating the curiosity of children; focusing on cultivating and giving full play to the autonomy and enthusiasm of children in participating in the details of life, and directly observing and feeling the growth of children.
