Curriculum planning
|
We design a curriculum according to the Education Bureau’s Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide (2017) that covers theme stories suitable for children's actual life experience. We have written the "Integrated Curriculum for Story Mode Emergent Literacy” that caters to children’s love of listening to stories. With one story per day, and through listening, speaking, reading and writing activities, children are able to learn languages in a systemic way. In addition to arousing their interest in learning, this also helps build a solid foundation for their language development.
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
|
The kindergarten introduces story- and activity-based teaching approaches combined with the whole-language concept, to help children learn languages systematically and consolidate the basic knowledge that they have learned.
|
Assessment of children’s learning experiences
|
Assessment of children’s development and learning performance in all aspects through continuous observations of their performance in class. Thematic learning assessment reports distributed after each theme, and child development report distributed 2 times throughout the year.
|
School Characteristics

School vision and mission
|
Following Basel Missionary Society’s fine tradition of running a school, we aim to tailor make a half-day and full-day non-profit kindergarten for today’s children that is rooted in the love of Christ, and built upon our expertise and spirit of education. The kindergarten will be committed to providing quality whole-person education for Hong Kong’s new generation in the 21st century to empower them to attain balanced development in moral, intellectual, physical, social, aesthetic and spiritual aspects. Also, we seek to educate children to become high-quality citizens who have self-confidence, self-discipline and self-respect. Further, we will assist families to create a loving, caring environment where our children can grow up healthily and happily.
