Our programme and curriculum Kindergarten
We know that a play remains an important aspect of every child's life so through daily play, team activities, sports and games, our children gradually develop their motor skills and build good character.Creativity and expression are encouraged through art and craft, music and movement, and role play.This is done through our children’s daily life practices and experience at our kindergarten; inspirational learning through stories and sharing; and most of all a guidance of our teachers. English learning programme for children is an innovative language British Programme /critical listening programme/ based on the principles of natural language development. We use it for our weekly topics. Teachers are there to lead children to be independent by dressing themselves up, tidying up, cleaning, staying safe, gardening and simple cooking or baking.
