PRIMARY 3

Our Primary 3 programmes supplement the local P3 syllabus and offer a unique opportunity to improve a child’s command of both spoken and written Chinese. We constantly develop and update our P3 curriculum in order to keep abreast of new MOE syllabus and guidelines.

Our Primary 3 Enrichment Programme provides a more rounded education for P3 students to overcome challenges in learning Chinese at school and to achieve better grades. Our familiarity with the MOE syllabus and continual updates of our curriculum are the programme’s key strengths.

“Young” Primary 3 writers often find the 200-character requirements of compositions overwhelming. Our P3 Writing Oral Comprehension Programme helps to increase their confidence in essay writing and oral skills. This is accomplished by grouping them to their educational levels for better learning, expanding their vocabulary with new words from and beyond textbooks, and teaching them organising and writing skills. Reflecting our belief in “practice makes perfect”, every student has to submit a composition almost every week.
