Curriculum planning
|
ESF Tung Chung International Kindergarten offers English medium and bilingual education for children aged 3 to 5 years. The school is an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School offering the IB Primary Years Programme.
IB World Schools share a common philosophy — a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education — that we believe is important for our students. The learning environment is rich and engaging and children are encouraged to learn through inquiry and hands-on experiences.
Our Pre Kindergarten programme offers a play based Pre-PYP curriculum for ages 2 to 3.
The programme reflects the kindergartens’ PYP curriculum being planned around units of inquiry and is structured upon principles of good early years education. Early literacy and numeracy are integral to the programme. Mandarin Chinese is the specialist language and is integrated into the programme, forming a core aspect of the curriculum.
|
Learning / Teaching approach and activities
|
The kindergarten caters for Pre K, K1 and K2 children aged 2 to 5 years who attend for three hours a day, for either a morning or an afternoon session. The kindergarten/ child care centre offers safe and spacious learning environments which are designed especially to meet the needs of young learners. They are all well-resourced with age-appropriate equipment and materials, and modern teaching and learning technology.

Other activities / communication with parents
|
We recognise and appreciate the unique role that parents play in their child’s education and actively encourage parents to be fully informed about their child’s progress and to participate in their kindergarten. We aim to establish a close link between home and school. Outings, excursions, workshops and parent volunteering are different ways for parents to participate in the kindergarten programme and to meet with teachers and other families. Parents are kept informed about what their children are learning, how to help at home, and how their children are progressing during the year through various methods of communication between home and school.
