Our graduating students are accepted into top local and international primary schools.

Daily and International Living Experiences - Daily and International Living Experiences include many activities such as caring of self and others, international well manner, daily life and habits. The curriculum promotes the coordination of movement, orderliness, diligence, independence, a high level of concentration, self-confidence and inter-social behavior with an international setting. Carried out properly and enthusiastically in childhood, they lead to emotional balance, stability and maturity.

Language - We use the Sandpaper Letters/Sandpaper Characters - symbols of our written language system as the starting point. When an individual child exhibits an interest and readiness for reading, instruction is given, and the children's interest in reading is cultivated as their most important key to future learning. There will be many story telling to develop hearing skill.

Sensorial Material - A child working systematically with sensorial apparatus builds a firm and wide foundation for his future intellectual life. During the past four decades, we have developed in-house several sets of sensorial apparatus assisting the children in learning to differentiate between: size, colours, weights, forms, textures, musical sounds, odours and tastes. We named our sensorial apparatus "THE KEYS TO THE UNIVERSE". These exercises allow the child to organise, classify and give language to the sensory experiences he has received since birth.

Mathematics - Through manipulation of concrete materials and various number activities designed by our school throughout the years, the children gain a strong basic understanding of our number system. The children are first presented with numerical quantity, then numeration, and finally the association of quantity and symbol. Our class room experience demonstrated that if children have access to mathematical equipment in their early years, they can easily and joyfully assimilate many facts and skills of arithmetic.

Geography & International World - We have many developed structured activities and games on the topics, including many sets of large wooden puzzle maps, which are among the most popular activities in the classroom. At first the children participate in our structured activities, later use the maps, simply as puzzles. Gradually they learn the names of many of the countries as well as information about climate and products. They also learn a rich knowledge of the world through our structured activities and games.

Children Computer - We are the first international kindergarten to develop a multimedia program for children in Hong Kong in 1990. Due to young children¦s short attention span and physical limitations, we straightly supervise our multimedia class schedule so that young children are given an optimal-time exposure to our computer program. Languages, creative thinking, logic and numeral skills are reinforced by our multimedia programs.

History - Our curriculum offers the children a concrete presentation of history by letting them work with several time recording instruments developed by our school. These instruments record consecutive periods of history. As an introduction to the idea of history, the children begin by making a time line of their own lives starting with baby pictures. It is a curriculum that teaches about one's own family, country and culture.

Culture Awareness Program - This curriculum developed by our school in 1980s, also the first of its kind in Hong Kong, allows the children to gain awareness of the world around them by exploring other countries, their customs, food, music, climate, language and animals. This helps to raise their consciousness about other people, to gain an understanding and tolerance and, therefore, compassion for all in the world.
