About The School
HKIS is one of Hong Kong’s most popular international schools. It celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2018, an impressive milestone for the school. It has two campuses with a total of more than 2,600 students from Reception 1 through Grade 12. The lower primary school teaches Reception through to Grade 2 (4- 7 years old). In Lower Primary, children learn in a ‘hands-on’ environment, where they are actively involved in exploring, experimenting and talking as they work and play at a variety of activities. Emphasis is on literacy and math, and children learn about Christianity through Bible stories, chapels, songs and prayers. They also learn about other world religions by sharing holiday celebrations, visiting temples, shrines and mosques, hearing various guest speakers, studying religious and cultural books, as well as traditional artifacts. The program design ensures that each child develops concepts, skills, learning strategies and positive attitudes in intellectual, social, physical, and spiritual areas at their own pace as they progress through the grades. To complement learning at this early stage of development, children use the playground and gym, as well as the comprehensive resources in our library.
