YUEN LONG RHENISH NURSERY

Mission: To nurture children’s holistic development, with the love of Christ, in moral, intellectual, physical, social, aesthetic and spiritual aspects. Vision: To provide high quality early education to help children develop abilities with life-long benefits.

Based on theories of children’s development, our curriculum is generally designed according to the physical and mental developments and learning interests of individual children, which is adapted to individual needs. We emphasize student-teacher interaction and hands-on experience. Through games, visits and experiments, we stimulate our children’s learning motivation and exploring spirit and improve their living skills. With native English teachers and Mandarin teachers in residence at our school, we offer a bilingual education to facilitate children’s development in languages and improve their Bi-literacy and Tri-lingualism skills. 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 choose subjects according to children’s life experiences and organize a variety of activities, to provide opportunities for collective and group learning, and allow children to be more cooperative; in addition, we establish a number of different learning zones that allow children to choose and participate in activities by themselves, to explore their learning initiative and potential, drive them to explore and think actively, and empower them to attain balanced development in knowledge, skills, attitudes, etc. To make children learn from their life experiences, we arrange them to face the reality of the community to broaden their horizons. With emphasis on children’s language learning, we develop our curriculum independently, including “Phonological Awareness Training Program”, that can assist children develop their language skills.
