Curriculum planning
|
When we teach in a spiral way, our children learn in a progressive manner. With a diversity of materials, we aim to inspire children’s curiosity, outsight, thinking and creativity, and more importantly, empower our children to attain balanced 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

We introduce activity- and story-based teaching approaches and a project-based learning approach while organizing group activities, visits and seminars.

Assessment of children’s learning experiences

Personal learning portfolios with records of children's growth and development, including continuous assessment records and students’ works and observation records for parents to understand their development in all aspects.
