Busy Bees implements a child-centered approach to learning through play. The Busy Bees curriculum draws guidance from the UK Foundation Stage curriculum, which encompasses six areas of learning: personal, social, and emotional; communication, language, and literacy; mathematical development; knowledge and understanding of the world; physical development; and creative development. The curriculum is introduced to the children through a variety of activities. The children are also made aware of the diversity of cultures around them through lessons, stories and songs, and toys available. Various festivals are also highlighted throughout the year.

Language Development

Busy Bees is a bilingual, English/Putonghua kindergarten.  To achieve this, the teachers alternate languages for certain areas such as lessons, story time, and activities each day.  The early years are a crucial time for children to develop their language skills, and this can be said for both first and second language learning. Busy Bees pays particular attention to children's language skills, and emphasis is placed on developing them. This is achieved by giving students frequent opportunities to practice their language skills, continual observation and assessments of individual children's language skills, and teachers and parents working together. We also have a variety of toys and learning resources which focus on language development.
