Adopting the Whole book Approach, our curriculum lets children explore through play to cultivate the habit of self-learning. We will follow the ''Kindergarten Education Curriculum Guide'' (2017) to plan curriculum. Children of nursery classes will not be asked to write, and there will not be mechanical copying exercises and drills on calculation.
