| curriculum_planning | Based on the spirit of ''bringing up a child so that he can walk the way he does, he will not deviate even when he is old.'' (Proverbs 22: 6), creating a pleasant learning environment and becoming a child, teacher and parent To bridge the education, cultivate students' good character and holistic education, and lay a solid and good foundation for their future life. Through the operation of kindergartens, everyone has a comprehensive and personalized development in all aspects of morality, intelligence, body, group, beauty, and spirit. It fosters children ’s knowledge-seeking spirit, willing to learn and explore, balanced development, healthy self-concept and confidence. And ability to adapt to the changing world. The philosophy of running a school is based on the ''education of love'', instructing children to love their heavenly father, love themselves, family, friends, school and nature. Based on the students' life experience, establish that they accept and appreciate, love and cherish each other, and nurture young children to understand and empathize with the things around them. 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. |
