LOWER ELEMENTARY

HKAA’s Lower Elementary section begins in Grade 1 and continues through Grade 5. Our program provides a holistic education that nurtures the intellectual, social, emotional, physical, and spiritual development of each child. Learning is play-based, theme-based, and intentionally designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and joy in the classroom.

 

Through differentiated instruction, teachers meet students where they are and support them as they grow in confidence, independence, and academic skill. Students are encouraged to explore, ask questions, collaborate with others, and develop a strong foundation for lifelong learning.

 

Since all class subjects, except for Chinese classes, are taught by English-speaking teachers, enrolled students are expected to demonstrate an acceptable level of English proficiency. Chinese classes are taught in Putonghua by qualified, trained Chinese educators, with classes split into local and international levels of speaking proficiency.

While HKAA is a private school, it adheres to the local Hong Kong curriculum standards while upholding additional international standards in subjects such as English, Science, General Studies, and Moral Education.

 

Hong Kong Adventist Academy lower elementary section will focus on the nine key areas of learning as set out by the Education Bureau. Within some of these sections, we integrate modified elements from the United States.

International Primary Curriculum (IPC)

The IPC is a thematic, creative, and globally recognized curriculum for children aged 5 to 12. Built on a research-based learning framework, it offers engaging, hands-on experiences where students are at the center of their own learning journey.

 

While our American and Hong Kong resources provide essential foundational knowledge, IPC helps students apply what they learn to real-life situations.

 

Through the IPC framework, students set academic and personal goals, making learning relevant to their daily lives while developing international mindedness, a key stepping stone to becoming a global citizen.
