Spread across more than 14,000 square feet, this early childhood campus will offer an innovative learning environment. Set in tranquil surroundings amid lush greenery and with features such as sensory corridors, light and construction studios, large indoor garden with a tree house, an outdoor sand pit, art studio and planting area, this pre-school campus will offer diverse and dynamic learning opportunities for children from 1 to 6 years of age.
The EtonHouse inquiry-based bilingual programme focusses on integrated and individualized learning based on research and international best practice. Mandarin is an important part of the curriculum and is delivered through meaningful experiences and interactions with native speakers with many opportunities for cultural immersion.
Mrs. Ng Gim Choo, Founder and Group Managing Director of EtonHouse said “We see a strong demand from families in HK for an international programme that nurtures creativity and innovative thinking alongside academic goals. EtonHouse has successfully established itself in Hong Kong and we are very encouraged by the support and appreciation we have received from families here. We bring a programme that is unique in its approach and one that works very well within the Hong Kong context of an international bilingual environment.
