Curriculum & Approach
To provide quality pre-primary education and lay the foundation for life-long learning, to render a pleasurable learning environment to nurture self-esteem, self-caring ability, self-learning and decent personality.''Quality education is built on passion for continuous improvements''
The curriculum aims at achieving a well balanced development in the five major developmental areas, i.e. Physical Development, Cognitive Development, Language Development, Affective & Social Development and Aesthetic & Cultural Development. Our curriculum is composed of different Learning Themes which are related to the daily life experiences of the children. Bi-literacy and tri-lingualism, mathematics, physical fitness, science, personal development, social skills and art are integrated in the learning areas of class activities. 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.
Activity-based approach; group activities; activities led by English-speaking teachers; project-based activities, off-campus visits; reading programmes; parent-child activities, participation in activities and competitions organized by external organizations.
