Curriculum & Approach
Mission: To educate students to learn the style of Christ and develop the spirit of honesty, integrity, love and diligence. Purpose: 1. To spread the love of Christ, celebrate the Christianized life and educate the whole child. 2. To provide an ideal learning environment for children. 3. To create a fine school spirit. 4. To make the family and the community partners of the school.
We provide a diversified range of integrative activities and games for our children to develop in thinking, language, perception and social aspects through personal inquiry, experience and teacher-student interaction, form good living habits and moral character by experiencing social life and build a solid foundation for learning. 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.
We design learning themes according to children's interests and life experiences. With a teaching approach based on stories, activities and projects, we help children acquire and apply knowledge, and develop their abilities in reading, writing and calculating. Children are arranged to participate in visits and community activities to enrich their experiences.
