The curriculum involves six learning areas, providing all-rounded, balanced and appropriate education, while at the same time nurtures children’s development in Moral, Cognitive and Language, Physical, Affective and Social, as well as Aesthetic. We aim to provide appropriate care to meet children’s development on growth, ability, interest and experience. We respect the individuality of each child and will exercise flexibility in teaching. Special subject teachers will be arranged to hold activities on biliteracy and trilingualism. We will follow the “Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide” (2017) to plan curriculum.
