YAN OI TONG PANG HUNG CHEUNG KINDERGARTEN

We develop a child-centred school-based curriculum to meet learner diversity and child development. We collaborate with parents to build a happy, healthy, creative and supportive learning environment to nurture children to care and love themselves and others, think actively, and take initiative to learn’.

With “child-centredness” and “learning to learn” as the mission, the learning goal is to nurture children to be active learners. The implementation of 3C “Communication, Collaboration, and Creativity” curriculum aims to enhance the abilities of children to share feelings with their peers, develop problem-solving skills. Through exploration and practices, develop their skills in communication, collaboration and creativity. They are well prepared to be the masters of the future society. 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.

Project Learning is adopted as the main teaching approach. The learning themes are reference to children real-life experience. Children are placed to an open learning environment They become curious, critical, assertive and insistent in learning. In addition to local qualified kindergarten teachers, a native English-speaking teacher and a native Putonghua-speaking teacher are members in the teaching team. The two native-speaking language teachers support children to learn the language through various listening and speaking games. It is to develop the language skills of children to be biliterate and trilingual. In moral education, it is to promote children to have the heart to “love” and “respect” others and “be grateful” to the people around them or the situation they are facing.
