Its teaching theoretical framework is ''Child-Centered'' based on life experiences, interests and existing knowledge as a teaching foundation. Through thematic teaching and project-based learning, children can achieve 'learning by playing' by sensory learning with more direct experience and deeper feeling. Thematic learning mainly develops children's learning generic skills, so as to improve their thinking and problem solving skills to allow them to have a balanced and comprehensive development. 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 adopts a comprehensive curriculum and promotes learning-through-play. Learning-through-play provides more opportunities for children to explore their surrounding environment. Whole class activities, group discussion,show and tell,free play and various exploration activities allow children to develop their thinking and communication skills. We believe learn-through-play can address children’s self-learning skills and learning motivation. Our curriculum focuses on theme-based learning and picture book teaching, it enhances children’s life experiences, attitudes and skills. The school implement project-approach allows children to develop their five senses exploration, problem-solving skills and provides opportunities for children to collaborate with others. Children can also broaden their knowledge and horizons as well as enrich their life experiences during outdoor learning,performance,parent-child exploration,research and visiting activities. The school curriculum also focuses on moral education and encourages children to develop good reading habits and establish the foundation of language skills through the story.
