Inspire potential, cultivate character, and pave an all-round path for further study and growth.

Hong Kong Minsheng Kindergarten/International Kindergarten creates a "spiral English curriculum" to build an immersive language environment so that children can lay a solid language foundation through natural interaction. Under the leadership of Principal Wu Weiying, the school has designed distinctive full-day classes to inspire students' diverse potential, and established a complete primary school connection system through home-school cooperation. The school combines life-oriented moral education courses to cultivate students' problem-solving abilities and empathy. With the optimization of school buildings, the school will continue to build a growth stage for the next generation from language learning, support for further studies, diverse experiences to character cultivation.

Construct a spiral curriculum and create an immersive English environment

In terms of English teaching, the school has introduced the internationally recognized Jolly Phonics English Pinyin course to implement age-specific and precise teaching. The K1 stage first establishes the basic understanding of English letters for children; the K2 to K3 stage systematically implements Pinyin teaching, using body movements to understand the corresponding pronunciation, helping students quickly associate and deepen their memory. At the same time, in order to coordinate with students' learning progress, the teaching team continues to follow up on learning performance and optimize course content every year. For example, the uniforms of the characters in the school-based textbooks and the images of teachers and students are designed with reference to the real appearance of the campus, giving the textbooks a sense of intimacy and greatly increasing students' sense of engagement and willingness to learn independently.

Professional team of foreign teachers builds confidence in expression

The school adopts a Chinese and foreign double class teacher system, and each class has its own foreign English teacher. All foreign teachers have professional language teaching or early childhood education qualifications, and regularly participate in professional development workshops to continuously improve teaching quality. The school has introduced international English public examinations in an orderly manner starting from K1, so that children can be exposed to international examination models early and practice their English application and expression skills.

Confidently connect to primary schools and establish excellent language advantages

In recent years, more than 98% of graduates from North Point School and Western District School have successfully entered the school of their choice or been assigned to their first choice primary school. This year, in the GESE (Trinity International Spoken English Test), all candidates from the two schools were rated "Excellent" or "Excellent", setting the best results ever. Principal Wu said: "Many parents have reported that after their children enter primary school, their English listening, speaking, reading and writing performance are all better than those of students of the same age. Children have been nurtured by the immersive English environment on campus for a long time, dare to express themselves actively, and can quickly adapt to the rhythm of primary school classrooms. The school adheres to a step-by-step spiral English curriculum to lay a foundation for students in English and expand their international horizons. In the future, it will continue to optimize the bilingual curriculum system to build a better language learning platform for the next generation."

Close collaboration between home and school to improve primary school admission support

The transition from primary school to primary school is a key link in early childhood education. The school has created a two-dimensional connection system of "parents + children", which not only helps students quickly adapt to the primary school learning model, but also provides parents with comprehensive support for further studies. Previous graduates have achieved excellent results in primary school and have won the recognition and trust of parents.

In terms of parent support, Principal Wu shared: "The school provides parents with clear information on further education in advance, holds seminars on further education, and regularly carries out various counseling activities. It provides a detailed analysis of the application process for private, direct subsidy, international schools and subsidized primary schools, as well as self-allocation mechanisms and key time points. At the same time, the school maintains close contact with many primary schools. Both schools regularly invite primary school principals to introduce school characteristics, open day arrangements and interview instructions to help parents plan early strategies for their children to advance to primary school and calmly cope with challenges."

In order to help students adapt to the pace of transition to primary school early, the school provides comprehensive simulation training for young children. In addition to allowing children to visit primary schools in the district, the school also simulates daily learning scenarios in primary schools and implements "simulated homework book training" to guide students to learn to fill in homework books by themselves, complete after-school exercises independently, and cultivate good habits of time management and independent learning.

At the same time, the school held primary school interview simulation training to simulate real primary school situations, guiding students to introduce themselves, maintain deportment, and master response skills. The school also collects a rich bank of interview questions and shares experiences with young children to help students accumulate practical experience, build strong self-confidence, and stand out in various primary school interviews.

Full-day CORE+ course broadens horizons and unleashes potential through diverse experiences

The school has specially set up a full-day CORE+ course to make full use of the afternoon period to enrich students' learning experience. For example, the PN class begins to focus on the development of fine muscles and senses, and arranges various Messy Play and sensory experience activities. Through interesting operations such as touching rice grains, creating sand paintings, and threading beads, children can exercise their fine hand movements in games and lay a solid foundation for writing in the future. For the K2 and K3 stages, the curriculum focuses on the consolidation and improvement of subject foundations, focusing on strengthening English, Mandarin and mathematics, effectively reducing the burden of after-school tutoring on families, allowing parents to easily enjoy quality parent-child time.

In order to balance learning and moderate relaxation, the school specially sets up Happy Friday every week to organize interesting activities and take students to the countryside to experience the fun of outdoor activities. Teachers will also make good use of outdoor scenes and guide children to observe the natural environment and other interactions, allowing them to review knowledge and accumulate life knowledge during play, truly implementing education through fun. In addition, the school has specially created a school-based Learning Hub course for K1-K3 students, which is equipped with multimedia electronic equipment for teaching, covering Chinese, English and mathematics, and helps students consolidate knowledge and improve their thinking skills in a fun and interactive way.

The school also promotes a variety of extracurricular activities such as English drama, music rhythm, rhythmic gymnastics and taekwondo to help children explore their potential and interests. At the same time, the school holds large-scale stage performances every year, allowing students to show off their learning achievements on stage. This not only improves expression skills and self-confidence, but also allows parents to explore students' potential and advantages through the stage and find the most suitable training direction.

The school is also a member school of the "International Alliance for Inspiring Potential Education" (IAIE), adhering to the concept of "invitational education" and affirming the unique potential and value of each child.

Moral education nourishes the mind, cultivates character, and cultivates positive problem-solving thinking

Principal Wu attaches great importance to the moral cultivation of children. The school-based moral education curriculum combines interesting stories with scenes of daily campus life. Different from the traditional teaching model, the school focuses on guiding students to actively think and solve problems. For example, when faced with daily situations such as peers overturning water glasses or dumping toys, teachers will guide students to think of solutions independently, work together to clean up, and assist each other to cultivate empathy and sense of responsibility in real situations.

The course focuses on the core qualities necessary for young children, and continues to run through positive concepts such as being friendly to others, helping each other and cooperating, independently solving problems, and having the courage to face difficulties. Through life-oriented and scene-based penetration, the school makes moral education no longer just empty preaching, but implemented in daily campus life, laying a solid foundation of character for students from an early age and accompanying them to grow up healthily and happily.

Parallel development of dual school buildings, new space optimization environment

Currently, the school has campuses in the Central and Western Districts and the Eastern District. In recent years, the school has actively promoted the upgrading and optimization of school buildings. It will soon move the original North Point school building to Quarry Bay. It has specially invited a German professional team to build on-campus recreational facilities, add large slides, multi-sensory training equipment and gross muscle training equipment. It has also expanded the number of classrooms to fully optimize children's learning and activity space to fully meet the diverse needs of physical exercise, sensory development and play-based learning. The new Quarry Bay campus is more spacious and adjacent to Quarry Bay Park, with abundant outdoor activity resources. In the future, the school will continue to develop high-quality early childhood education and provide more professional, comprehensive and diversified international early childhood education services.
