Curriculum planning

At Anchors Academy Affiliated International Kindergarten, we aim to inspire our early learners with the confidence and skills needed for a strong foundation to begin their journey as enthusiastic, life-long learners. Through a carefully designed curriculum, we foster natural curiosity, creativity, as well as personal and social development.
Our vision is to help students become global citizens, which is why we offer two trilingual streams with a choice of English and Mandarin or English and Cantonese classes.
Both streams include a daily session of a third language. We place great emphasis on STEAM and Innovation, which are embedded in our Anchors curriculum.
