中山市阿丁莱幼儿园将打造成为IB PYP学校，糅合中西方教育精髓，以国际文凭组织IB PYP为课程设计的核心框架，通过融合六大核心元素为幼儿提供探究式的超学科学习。同时辅以英国EYFS婴幼儿教育基础作为不同年龄段孩子身体、心理发育的考核指标，并以独特的孩子、积极的关系、有效的环境和学习与成长这四大主题作为指导基础。我们始终遵循中国学龄前幼儿教育指引帮助学生建立深厚的中华文化根基。
中山市阿丁莱幼儿园面向18个月至6周岁儿童，致力于将学生培养成具有中国灵魂、领会洞悉不同文化、能自由穿梭于不同国度的世界公民，以及对世界怀有积极抱负的时代创造者。
终身学习
培养全能世界公民
终身学习者
我们利用以儿童为中心的游戏、探究活动、真实生活体验、主题式活动，引导幼儿探索生活中的一切，促使其通过不同板块的课程形成对世界的理解，以及生活中所需的知识和技能。我们希望每一位孩子都能享受在幼儿园的生活，能成长为一位终身学习者。
全球胜任力
学校是发现孩子和教育学生的场所。我们帮助学生找到自己的独特优势和才华，并帮助他们更好地成长。在幼儿园里，我们为孩子提供一个充满挑战和冒险的环境，以此鼓励他们发现自己的世界，培养对学习的热爱。通过了解他们的世界，孩子们学会了尊重地球和地球上的一切事物。
国际化视野
培养幼儿的国际化视野能帮助他们更好地走向未来。未来世界将是一个庞大的地球村，科技的高速发展为未来不同国度和地域的人们更容易、更轻松地实现沟通交流。这就要求孩子能从小接触不同的文化，了解世界的发展，培养更远大的志向和格局。
沉浸环境
多语言思维发展
学习双语或者三语可以让孩子的大脑发展更健康及多元，思维更活跃且逻辑能力更强。随着年龄的增长，孩子在年幼时学习和接触的一切能帮助他们日后掌握更高级的语言能力。对婴幼儿而言，学习语言不是通过机械性练习，而是通过在一个沉浸式的环境中开展高质量的对话，孩子能自然习得语言以及沟通技能。长此以往，孩子们拥有更丰富的词汇量和更坚实的语言基础以支持他们更高年级的学习。
中山市阿丁莱湾区幼儿园创造一个多语言学习的环境，园区以英文为主要沟通语言，无论是课堂还是课间自由探索时间，我们为孩子提供一个英语沉浸式的环境，以实现中文和英语为双母语的语言启蒙目标。
此外我们将为孩子提供西班牙语探索活动，创造第二外语启蒙的机会。西班牙语课程以吸引孩子兴趣点的方式进行教学，主要从歌曲开始到简单的单词和短语，再慢慢过渡到简短的介绍和对话。通过多语言学习让孩子培养灵活的思维能力和跨文化适应能力，以练就适应未来国际社会的技能，帮助孩子更轻松自如地走向世界。
探究学习
超学科多元探索
幼儿园课程设计框架融入了国际文凭组织IB PYP的核心逻辑，我们鼓励孩子们通过以儿童为中心的游戏和探究、真实的生活经验，以及有针对性的学习和教学活动来探索不同的生活主题，让孩子们通过不同领域的探索去认知自己以及世界。
每一天，孩子们都在精心策划和准备的环境中进行游戏和探究。教学环境的设计使学习具有挑战性并与 "现实世界 "相关，来培养孩子的好奇心和创造力。
我们将以孩子的基本认知和兴趣点被作为引子，在每个孩子的优势、经验、文化和语言背景的基础上发展。我们鼓励孩子们成为独立的学习者和批判性的思考者，使他们有能力采取行动。学校努力让所有孩子享受他们的幼儿园生活，并发展成为终身学习者的技能。
幼儿的探索将围绕探究单元（UOI）的六大超学科主题开展。打破传统学科界限，阿丁莱幼儿园把语言、数理逻辑、科学、艺术、个人与社会、体能等方面的核心知识有机整合，推动孩子学习和探索的内驱力，以支持其全方位发展。
太空场景
鼓励探索无限可能
我们总是鼓励孩子仰望星空，目光远大，去探索和发现一切未知的可能。在建筑设计上我们融入教学理念，以太空探索为灵感贯彻到室内外的环境创设中，创建一个能激发学生想象和学习的校园环境，让孩子发挥无穷无尽的创造力和想象力。
外形酷似太空舱的建筑群落代表对未来的探秘和憧憬，为孩子和老师创造无限的想象空间；室内环境同样以静谧宇宙为设计主调，采用火星橙、太空灰、天空青等充满科技感的色调，无论是整体空间还是细节处理均能体现世界级的设计水平。
户外空间
激发自然创造能力
与传统校园不同，中山阿丁莱寻求通过创造与教学相结合的校园环境，为学生提供更多趣味性的、富有创造力的教学空间，满足学生学习、交流、运动、休憩等多种需求。孩子的学习与探索不仅仅发生在室内的课堂，所有的户外区域都将是锻炼实践能力和自主学习能力的好地方。
户外区域为幼儿提供多种探索机会：
“
自然探索区
自然探索和发现植物与昆虫的多样性，树叶、树皮、种子、化石等将会是探索自然的道具，学生能在这里学习打造和管理花园。
“
戏剧学习区
为户外的戏剧艺术学习提供场景和道具。游戏屋、沙子和工具、泡泡、带轮子的玩具等互动游戏工具，能激发幼儿的想象力。
“
感官探索区
通过感官去探索和发掘所处环境的所有事物，地下水位、洒水器、沙池、挖掘工具等为户外探索提供想象空间。
“
阅读学习区
阅读空间延伸至户外，绘本、书籍、毯子、阳光和微风，创造一个舒适的休闲空间。
家校关系
多重渠道高效沟通
中山阿丁莱深知道高效的家校沟通如何能支持孩子成长，教师团队不仅仅是孩子的老师，他们也是家长的专业辅助，共同为幼儿的全面发展出谋划策。我们将通过以下被有效认证的渠道来实现家园共育的有效性：
家校沟通平台
老师将通过应用程序每天更新孩子在课堂的照片或视频；每周还会有简短的周中报告；同时也将是最核心的沟通平台，家长可以咨询老师有关孩子的在校情况，包括请假等。
家长会
针对每位学生在每学期举行一次一对一的家长会。由家长与中教主班以及外籍老师共同参加，通过面对面沟通的方式让家长更清楚地了解老师针对每一位的孩子设计的成长计划，提供和分享对孩子的反馈。
开放日
每学期举行一到两次的在读学员家庭开放日。我们将邀请家长加入班级成为孩子们的“一天老师”，为孩子们阅读故事、玩游戏；家校组成的志愿者团队共同进入社区服务；或者会在整个学年中开展一场户外的亲子开放日课堂。
家委会
我们鼓励学校与家长建立紧密的联系，这也是班级内部分家长被邀请加入家委会的原因。通过每月开会讨论学校面临的情况以及我们的改善方案。家长可以开展实地考察、家长活动以及不同板块的合作活动。
Coffee Corner
在中山阿丁莱，我们相信开放、透明的重要性，旨在创造一个让所有家庭和孩子都能感到轻松愉悦的校园。
在幼儿园的前台我们设有咖啡区，会在整个学期里定期举办家长课堂、亲子活动、老师分享会和其他主题活动，家长可以在这里分享和学习。此外，这是一个家长可以自由探索的空间，带上书籍或电脑，在他们的孩子学习时放松或工作。我们的目标是提供开放式的空间，让所有家长感受到园区的温暖。
Ardingly College Zhongshan Kindergarten will follow the IB PYP framework, combining the essence of Chinese and Western pedagogies. The aim of the IB PYP is to provide students with an inquiry-based transdisciplinary framework incorporating 6 Units of Inquiry. Additionally, we supplement our programme with the UK EYFS standards for learning, development and care, which prioritises A unique Child, Positive Relationships, Enabling Environments and Learning and Developing. Lastly, we fully align with the Chinese Kindergarten 3 to 6 year-old guidelines which are crucial to building a strong foundation in Chinese culture and development of each child.
Ardingly College Zhongshan Kindergarten welcomes all the children aged from 18 months to six years old. We’re dedicated to shaping and cultivating pupils who will become global citizens with profound appreciation for Chinese culture and a strong sense of national identity, who are freely and easily able to navigate through a multitude of cultural spaces, and become the leaders and creators of the future, equipped with creative and positive ambitions for the world.
Lifelong Learning to Cultivate All-round Global Citizens
Life-long Learners
We use a play based, inquiry approach, make connections to the real world and explore multiple subjects in a transdisciplinary approach connected by a common unit of inquiry. This allows each of our students to explore, question, experiment, and understand things both inside and outside their classroom and to promote their understanding of the world around them. Our approach also provides students with both the knowledge and skills needed in life through our inquiry learning cycle. We want every child to enjoy their kindergarten life and grow into a lifelong learner.
‘World Ready’ Programme
Schools are places for children to discover their interests and develop their talents. We work to support students in finding their unique talents and individual interests and where those intersect, we develop, refine, and enhance those areas. In Kindergarten, we provide children with a challenging and adventurous environment that encourages them to discover the world around them and develop a love of learning from an early age. By learning about the world around them, children learn to respect the planet and everything on it.
International Mindedness
Cultivating young children with an international perspective will be an important skill in the future. With the rapid development of science and technology it will become increasingly more common and easier for people from different countries and regions to communicate and collaborate in the future. This requires children to be exposed to different cultures from an early age, understand the development of the world, develop and understand different perspectives, and learn to share and exchange opinions with others. Learning these skills at a young age will provide our students with a unique advantage and ensure there is no limit to where our children can work and with whom they can communicate and collaborate with in the future.
Immersive Multilingual Development
Learning to be Bilingual, Trilingual or even multilingual can enhance children"s brain development by allowing them to think about problems in more than one way and understand issues in a deeper more well-rounded approach. What they learn and are exposed to at a younger age will support them in their quest to learn and master languages as they continue to get older. Learning a language at an early age is not done through repetition and drills but by being exposed to high quality language in an immersive environment which then allows children to develop these language and communication skills in a natural way. The long-term results, are children who have a much wider vocabulary and a stronger foundation on which to build on in the future.
Ardingly College Zhongshan Kindergarten creates a multilingual learning environment. We use English as the main communication language. To ensure a truly authentic immersive environment teachers remain in English during lesson time, meals, free play or exploration time. The emphasis on English throughout most of the day except for Chinese Inquiry time ensures that children are able to easily understand and communicate in both English and Chinese and that students develop language naturally and not through drilling or rote memorisation.
In addition, we will provide children with the additional language of Spanish to create opportunities for enlightenment in a second foreign language. Through multilingual immersive learning, children can develop the skills to think in different languages, problem solve in different languages, communicate with people from all over the world, and go into the future with an advantage over their peers.
Inquiry Based Transdisciplinary Exploration
The kindergarten curriculum and framework incorporate the core elements of the IB PYP, and we encourage children to explore different themes, areas, and materials through child-centred play and inquiry, authentic scenarios and items, and targeted learning and activities. We allow children to understand themselves and the world around them through independent and guided exploration in a variety of areas.
Throughout each day the children will be engaged in play-based learning & transdisciplinary inquiry within an environment that has been carefully planned for by our expert teachers.
Our Ardingly College Zhongshan Kindergarten environment fosters curiosity, critical thinking, creativity and promotes discovery & exploration by making learning challenging and relevant to the ‘world around them’. Children’s prior knowledge, previous learning and individual interests are used from the start and then based on student’s strengths, experiences, cultural and linguistic backgrounds, built upon from there. Children are supported and encouraged to become independent learners and creatively critical thinkers. Our goal is to ensure all children enjoy their kindergarten experience and become lifelong learners.
There are six transdisciplinary themes that make up the Units of Inquiry (UOI) : Who we are, Where we are in place and time, How we express ourselves, How the world works, How we organize ourselves, Sharing the planet. This Transdisciplinary approach while sharing a common theme breaks down traditional standalone subjects and integrates Language, Social Studies, Logic, Art, Science, and Personal, Social, Physical education (PSPE) according to ability, interest, and individual contexts allowing students to think for themselves, take responsibility for their own learning and provide them an action point to continue to develop in a holistic way.
The Space and Environment Encourage Infinite Exploration
We always encourage children to look up at the stars, look far and wide, and to explore and discover all the unknown possibilities. Through our architectural design, we have integrated our inquiry and exploratory curriculum, and ‘space exploration’ as our inspiration to provide an indoor-outdoor learning environment that allows children to be creative, to explore, and to allow their imagination to be endless, in this way the space, environment, and curriculum all work to extend and enhance imagination and learning.
The kindergarten campus is reminiscent of a space capsule that represents the exploration and longing for the future. It represents our vision of creating a space that allows for unlimited imagination for children and teachers. The interior is also designed with the universe in mind, using Mars orange, space grey, sky blue and other elements contributing to the space aesthetic. The colour tone, overall space, design details, and teaching materials all help reflect our exploratory vision world-class design.
Outdoor Spaces Inspire the Natural Creativity
Different from the traditional campus, Ardingly College Zhongshan seeks to provide students with diverse, creative, and flexible educational spaces. We have used the entire campus including the outdoor areas and the landscaping to support our vision of providing flexible educational spaces that supports students learning and academic needs, spaces for reflection and mindfulness, areas for communication, play, sports, and socialisation.
In the outdoor spaces on the ground level there are seven key areas that were developed to achieve a diversity of exploration:
“
Nature Area
Natural exploration and discovery are an integral part of students development. Having an area that is rich in plant, tree, and insect diversity allows students to have a natural and tranquil area to explore or relax.
“
Dramatic Area
The dramatic area features outdoor props, scenes and other equipment to allow students to create outdoor performances. Everyone from our youngest learners to our oldest students are able to play, develop, and perform.
“
Sensory Area
The unique area is a space for students to explore and discover things in the natural environment through all of their senses. A place with sand, water, and nature all providing the material for students to have a multi sensorial experience.
“
Quiet Area
The quiet reading, reflection, and learning area extends to the outdoor environment and has books, blankets, comfortable chairs, a lounge area with lots of sunshine. It is a perfect area for students to come for a relaxing comfortable space to unwind.
Efficient Multi-Channel Home-school Communication
We know that efficient home-school communication can support and enhance a child"s growth and development. Your child’s teachers are not only there to educate and support your child, but to also work as a partner to parents and families. They are there to provide professional support and advice, to work together with families to make suggestions and comprehensive plans for the development of each individual child. We will strive to achieve effective and efficient communication and collaboration through some of the following methods:
Home-School Communication Platform
Teachers will update parents with photos or videos of their child everyday using the school app. Additionally there will be a midweek update provided to parents. Our app is the main way our families and teachers communicate with each other and where parents can ask questions, discuss issues with their child’s teachers, request leave or discuss other issues.
Parent-Teacher Meeting
A one-on-one parent-teacher meeting is held each semester for each student. Parents, their Homeroom Teacher and the Expat Teacher participate together. Through these face-to-face meetings, parents can better understand the growth and development of their child, refine and adjust their child’s individual development plan, and provide and share feedback on the child.
Open House Events
Several open days for current students are held every semester (subject to local Epidemic prevention guidelines). We will invite parents to join the class, participate in the learning together with their child, act as a "teacher for the day", read stories together, play games and join activities together with their child, complete community service projects together, and join our field day events.
Parent Teacher Association
We encourage a strong connection between our school and our families. This is one reason why several parents from each class are invited to join our PTA which meets monthly and discusses ongoing issues in the school along with new initiatives and programmes we offer. Parents can discuss field trips, events and other areas of collaboration.
Coffee Corner
At Ardingly College Zhongshan Kindergarten we believe in openness, transparency, and creating a school where all our families and children feel welcome.
We have a coffee area in our school, and we will hold regular, parent academies, events, teacher sharing sessions, Q&A sessions and other special events throughout the semester where parents can come, share, and learn together. This area also provides a space for parents to relax, bring a book, do some work, or socialise while their child is learning. Our goal is to provide a warm, open, and inviting campus where both our children but also our families feel at home.
