🎯 Mission
"Promoting children’s holistic development of the spirit of Christ, providing comprehensive and diversified preschool education services to the community so that children can show their strengths and give back to the society after they grow up. Through education, children can develop the virtues of ''morality, intellect, physical, social, beauty, and spiritual'' to cultivate a positive character and outlook on life."
📚 Approach & Strategies
"The child-oriented approach is adopted. The contents of teaching are designed to arouse children’s interest in learning. Pronunciation of the Chinese and English languages is emphasized. Different themes are set for learning. Problems with different extent of difficulties are set in story-based formats for solution and exploration as a way to train different levels of thinking. Theme studies and theme-based extended activities are designed to let children learn in action and explore new knowledge. The interest corners with rich content are set. We respect children as independent learners and create opportunities for them to learn and practise the process of ‘planning, action and review’. All these are supported with various learning activities to enrich their learning experiences."
