Kindergarten 1 and 2 Programme

English - To develop children to have a well-rounded love of language, from listening and speaking to reading and writing, they are using a phonics-based English program which covers basic language and literacy skills that lead eventually to reading and writing.
Chinese - Similarly, in Chinese, they are using stories, songs, rhymes, language activities, reading, spelling and creative writing to learn basic strokes and characters.
Math - Children are given a foundation in early math skills such as counting, grouping, shapes, graphing and patterning through everyday experiences that are relevant to their lives.
Music and Movement - During music class, they will sing, play with instruments, and have structured or spontaneous activities in nature that permit a higher degree of expression and individuality.
Art and Craft - They encouraged aesthetic appreciation and creativity and integrate art activities into their other activities in their program. Drawing, handicraft, painting, collages are different mediums in which children can express themselves. Aside from that, there is also a separate time set aside for an art specialist to conduct art calligraphy lessons.
Computer Aided Education - Their computer program incorporates themes and traditional academic subjects that the children enjoy. Each curricular unit features activities that are infused with interesting themes and academic content in core subject areas such as Language, Mathematics and Science etc.
Special Activities - "Holiday Camp" is one of the programs that are held during the school holidays. The purpose of the holiday camp is to give the child an opportunity to be independent in the absence of their parents and learn to take care of his or her own needs. Games, activities and field trips to various interesting places are conducted to encourage the students to foster interaction among their peers and work in a group as a team. This allows them to grow into individuals with their own strengths.
