Our Objectives
The Cherie Hearts Holdings believes that every aspect of a child’s development
should be recognised, nurtured and developed holistically.
Children’s learning at every level is focused on knowledge, skills, abilities,
dispositions and feelings. These are intellectual dispositions that help children
as they learn to think and think to learn. Such dispositions can be observed when
children are engaged meaningfully in the investigation of things around them, trying
to find answers to their questions and solutions to problems that they may encounter.
These opportunities are provided in our curriculum.
Children’s Learning Journey
The Cherie Hearts Curriculum gives children the autonomy through a uniquely designed
approach – The CHILD Approach – Children Holistically
Inquire to Learn and Develop.
This approach is crafted using local context setting that enhances children’s
learning through concrete, attention-grabbing and meaningful experiences. At the
same time, children also learn to understand and appreciate their learning environment
in the Centre as well as the environment around them. They will also be exposed
to multi-cultural settings and values that are incorporated in our curriculum.
Cherie Hearts offers an excellent bilingual pre-school programme in English and
Mandarin for children from 18 months to 6 years old. Our team of professional and
dedicated staff are trained to carry out our unique curriculum.
The Child Approach Curriculum
Cherie Hearts Group International with its team of in-house specialists in Early
Childhood, Child Development and Child Psychology has developed an active and interactive
curriculum. The curriculum focuses on promoting the growth of the child in all areas
of development - Physical, Social, Emotional, Cognitive and Language. Therefore,
the curriculum’s focal point is to develop a whole child.
Lessons are planned in progression over the various age levels from Playgroup 1
to Kindergarten 2. This facilitates continuous learning because each lesson is built
upon the previous lesson and the children’s prior knowledge. Our teachers
are guided and trained to use the prescribed lessons to ensure that the quality
of the curriculum is adhered to in all the Cherie Hearts centres.
There are two curricula designed – Jump Start Years Curriculum
for the Playgroup 1 and 2 children and the Bridging Years Curriculum
for Nursery, Kindergarten 1 and Kindergarten 2.
