Curriculum planning
|
According to the “Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide”(2017), we have designed a curriculum that caters to children’s experiences, abilities and interests. We empower our children to learn through play in order to develop their individual thinking and creativity and enhance their self-care, cognitive and problem- solving 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.
