Curriculum & Approach

Local
Vision & Mission

By upholding the spirit of quality services and promoting Christian care, we provide comprehensive care and education to foster children and enable them to have healthy growth and become cheerful, benevolence, responsible and confident.

Curriculum planning

Based on the guidelines of the Education Bureau's preschool education curriculum, our school has integrated and designed a curriculum centered around unit themes, project-based learning, and whole language teaching. This curriculum also incorporates the five frameworks of positive education, which include: maintaining curiosity, building on strengths, embracing challenges, practicing kindness, and being fully engaged. The aim is to cultivate good character in young children, enhance their emotional and social development, and help them understand their own emotions and build self-image. We hope that children will recognize their personal value, develop the correct attitude and necessary skills for interacting with others. 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.

Learning & teaching approach

Our school which is child-oriented implement theme or project learning in a comprehensive way. A learning session or a series of learning and teaching activities cover learning areas, which are “Language”, “Early Mathematics”, “Physical Fitness and Health”, “Self and Society” and “Arts”. Knowledge, skills and attitude are also taught. Each learning session covers at least 3 learning areas.We provide diversified and optional learning activities to let children learn independently from games. In addition, we arrange field trips and parent-child reading programmes as well as extended activities such as English, Mandarin, Science, visual arts, creative music and drama.
