Education begins at age zero
Educating our children is like tendering little plants. We have to take good care of every step, starting from or even before the seeds are sown. On offer are therefore a full range of programmes starting from age zero and continuing all the way when the child grows to six years old or so and beyond. Nurturing and nourishing our little sprouts with multi-sensory and multi-language ambience, built around a framework of ample space for exploration, our kindergarten sees the growth of children into healthy individuals with positive outlook in life and set to put into full play their potentials. Multi-language and multi-culture Immersion Building on educational theories and concepts, we have accumulated rich experience in pre-school learning. Over the years, we have devised play-based and inspirational curriculum for children to immerse in an environment embracing cultural diversity and conducive to learning English and Chinese as well as other languages (e.g. Japanese). Children have plentiful interaction with our team of enthusiastic native speaking teachers (English, Cantonese, Putonghua and Japanese). The measured and structured exposure to Chinese classics and English readers are also of great benefit to children. These classics and readers help children get into touch with cultural heritage and foster their language awareness. Our children absorb the elements of languages naturally from very young, which lay strong foundation for their future attainments. Catiline graduates are proficient in both English and Chinese with a respect for different cultures. In search of character-based excellence Character building is at the heart of our education. Children who have self-esteem, an inquisitive mind, a quest for knowledge and continuous improvement, and full of love for families and respect to others, are set for a fulfilling life. These are the attributes that will enable a person to learn and draw experiences and face the challenges in life. They are the qualities to drive excellence in academic and career pursuit in the long run. Such positive values permeate throughout our curriculum design, classroom teaching and extracurricular activities, Parent Involvement and Empowering Parents are children's earliest life mentors, so they are our important partners. Since education starts at an early age, parents should prepare and participate early. Nurturing is indeed a learning process for parents. We are ready to assist parents to explore knowledge, experience and skills in the process of nurturing children. Riding on over 30 years of early education experiences, we are constantly making improvements and seeking to adopt the best practices of the times. Going hand in hand with parents, we provide a holistic childhood education embracing character formation, building literacy abilities, enhancing artistic and physical development and respect for cultural diversity. Our children will become respectable members of society making positive contribution to families and humankind. Olivia Woo, Supervisor
