Curriculum planning
Our integrated, children-centered curriculum helps children to develop self-learning ability and good learning attitudes and character.
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.
Learning / Teaching approach and activities

Montessori Method – To train mathematical and logical thinking, and develop reading and writing skills and self-care ability; 3. Fund with English – To arouse children’s interest in learning English, and articulate listening and pronunciation skills; 4. Life education – Concerning individual child’s needs and development, we foster positive and optimistic values through manifesting the Love of Jesus Christ. At the same time, children are taught according to abilities, special needs and development of children are also catered for. 5. Inheriting Chinese Culture- By understanding Chinese festival customs, appreciating and experiencing various forms of traditional art and together with participating in related project-based learning activities, we aim to cultivate young children's interest in Chinese culture and foster their sense of national identity.
