KINDERGARTEN

Our innovative early childhood program comprising Small World (1.5 year olds), nursery, pre-k and kindergarten is a laboratory of joy, discovery, and exploration.

Collaboration is woven into everything we do. Teams of English and Chinese teachers share two classes of students, collaborating to nurture their students’ social, emotional and academic growth. Teacher teams share responsibility for the curriculum and plan together daily. This intense collaboration is challenging as well as exciting: we’re always evolving, learning from each other and seeking to improve.
