🎯 Mission
"In the spirit and love of Jesus Christ, we cultivate the whole person development of our children including their moral, intellectual, physical, social, aesthetic and spiritual development."
📚 Approach & Strategies
"The curriculum emphasizes children’s life experience. Children develop positive learning attitude through class teaching, doing, visits, exploration, and drama activities etc. We strengthen their language ability through the home reading scheme 'Paired Reading'. Through the programme ‘Family Wellness Vitamins’, we help children to cultivate a sense of responsibility and resilience; to develop communication skills and the ability to appreciate the surroundings; to boost their self-esteem; and to treasure the time with family and friends."
