| curriculum_planning | Our curriculum is designed to match all our children's needs, interests and abilities. We have used a play-based approach to design and implement a holistic and child-centered curriculum; moreover, we support inclusive education, providing a happy learning environment for children of diverse learning needs. We empathize with the children first, creating a safe environment where they can learn through play. We also consolidate school and community resources, providing real-life and sensory experiences for the children to explore interactively through play, in order that their understanding of the world, creative abilities, problem solving skills and adaptivity might all be enhanced, ensuring the whole child development of our children. We will follow the “Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide” (2017) to plan curriculum.
