Curriculum & Approach
Upholding the Catholicism’s spirit of love and serving as the foundations of our school education, learn the virtues of love, humility, gentleness and patience from Our Lady, Star of the Sea. We are committed to providing children with a diverse and quality education that can foster their initiative and positive attitude when facing difficulties, and to grow up joyfully in faithfulness, trust, filial piety and love.
The core of curriculum framework is children-centered and on the children’s four development goals basis. Considering the school’s learning goals, it formulates the courses by which children can learn knowledge pleasantly, safely and effectively and finally have balanced 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.
Pursuing the teaching methods such as theme-based learning, small group learning, corner activities and project approach to make children acquire knowledge, manner and skill by themselves and then release their potential abilities. Meanwhile the cultivation of religious and moral education can let children know Jesus and treat people with love and services and grow up in the environment of loving and being loved.
