HONG KONG YOUNG WOMEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION HELEN LEE KINDERGARTEN

Vision : In the spirit and love of Jesus Christ, we cultivate the whole person development of our children including their moral ,intellectual, phyiscal, social, aesthetic and spiritual development. Mission: Rely on Jesus Christ, united the family and the school; Cultivate our children, taking steps towards a fruitful life.

Our curriculum is designed based on the guidelines provided by the education bureau and the developmental, interests, and abilities of children aged 3-6. It includes diverse learning activities in moral education, intelligence, physical fitness, social skills, art, and spiritual education. The learning activities are mainly through games and exploration, with appropriate classroom activities and corner games designed to inspire children's creativity and logical thinking. Our school mainly adopts a ''life theme integrated curriculum'' and ''project-based learning'' approach to provide hands-on and experiential game-based learning content, enriching children's learning experiences and cultivating their proactive exploration spirit and problem-solving abilities. Additionally, through the ''moral and Christian curriculum,'' we cultivate children's correct attitudes towards treating others, establish harmonious interpersonal relationships through social interaction with classmates, promote social and emotional development, and enable them to become a new generation with self-esteem, self-discipline, and self-love. Daily routine learning is implemented to enable children to develop self-care abilities and cultivate good habits. Our school creates a language context and implements the ''Paired-Reading Scheme'' to enhance children's interest and abilities in language, and develop their abilities in listening, speaking, reading, writing, and trilingual abilities. 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.

The school utilizes different teaching methods such as ''theme-based teaching,'' ''project approach,'' ''small group teaching,'' and ''corner learning'' to inspire children's learning interests, needs, and thirst for knowledge. Through programs such as ''Family Health Vitamin'' and ''Love+Reading,'' we also cultivate children's moral education and language development.
