About Get Ready for Kindergarten
Our ‘Get Ready for Kindergarten’ (GRK) course is a bilingual programme (English and Cantonese) aims to support and prepare your child for regular schooling. During the class, GRK students get to experience class routines through theme learning, phonics session, group activities, snack time etc. By adding various kindergarten elements into the programme, we hope to help enrich and enhance students’ linguistic skills and shape their interest in language; and make their transition to kindergarten smoother and stress-free.
