This carries the goal of cultivating "excellent talents with Chinese foundation, international vision and innovative characteristics", understands the lifelong education and reposes on early childhood education.

Mountain Kingston Bilingual Kindergarten Suzhou will continue and develop the mature school culture and philosophy of Pinghe Qingpu, advocate the harmonious coexistence of "people and self, people and others, people and the world", lay a good foundation for children's lifelong development, and support children to become the best that they can be.
STIMULATING THE POTENTIALS IN THE INTERESTING PUZZLE
An unusual building is seated in the southeast of Mountain Kingston Bilingual School Suzhou. It is a color puzzle in a bird's-eye view. This is Mountain Kingston Bilingual Kindergarten Suzhou.
The Mountain Kingston Bilingual Kindergarten Suzhou is architecturally designed with the concave-convex image of the puzzle, which implies the form of independence, openness and cooperation, and contains the infinite potential for children to seek knowledge, explore and create.
A GARDEN-INSIDE-GARDEN ENVIRONMENT FOR GROWING FREELY IN NATURE
Nature education is the best gift for human beings to return to nature. When children immerse themselves in nature, the five senses are fully mobilized and rich inner experience arises spontaneously. The early experience of immersing with nature will plant a seed of tenacity in the mind of children who will not be afraid of any challenges.
In the unique puzzle design of Mountain Kingston Bilingual Kindergarten Suzhou, the pattern of elevated ground floor is adopted to release more spaces for exploratory activity, and create a natural campus full of childlike fun and vitality for children. The details from overall layout, landscape design to software layout are highlighted to meet children's psychological characteristics, development law and growth needs.
The entire building is enclosed to form a central courtyard, which forms an enclosed yet unclosed space through the linkage between the open spaces and the activity spaces on the south and west sides. Grass slopes, sand pits, caves, slides and other facilities are arranged in the playground, so that children can fully release their nature and move freely in a safe space.
A variety of play places are arranged inside and outside the playground in which children can trigger the body to make corresponding actions, such as "throwing", "burrowing", "climbing", "riding", "rolling" and "scrambling". This will not only naturally increase the amount of exercise of children, but also enhance their physical strength. Such spaces also make children have the desire to create games and stimulate curiosity. It is a nurturing environment for children to grow up healthily.
PLAYGROUND + ZOO, A FULL COMBINATION OF PLAYING AND LEARNING
For many people, it may seem odd to conceptualize "education" and "game" together, as if they are correlated. However, this correlation itself is very common in the world of early childhood education and developmental psychology. The term "game" here does not refer to a learning activity that includes game elements, nor does it refer to creating a sense of game enjoyment. We believe that "playing" itself includes "learning". Therefore, the Mountain Kingston Bilingual Kindergarten Suzhou pays attention to the details, and prepares a playground where children can fully enjoy "games". The playground is not only equipped with classic carousel and other amusement facilities, but also provided with various traffic signs and mini parking lots, so that children can learn social skills and related knowledge in the games.
The exclusive playground allows the children to freely indulge in a quasi adult environment.
In addition to learning by playing, we also emphasize the relationship between environment and exploration.
With the support of the most natural environment, the children's curiosity is regarded as the starting point to stimulate free exploration, constantly reflect and practice their own ideas, and cultivate children's independent learning ability.
In the Mountain Kingston Bilingual Kindergarten Suzhou, we use natural trees and floral to attract insects, and then use the insects to attract birds. In such an environment, the children can actually contact with flowers, insects and birds that are seen in books. With the changing season, this interaction from nature will make them enjoy at all times, which greatly enriches the spiritual world of children.
At the Pet Hall in the Mountain Kingston Bilingual Kindergarten Suzhou, the natural animals can enter the campus and interact with children.
By observing every move of animals, the children can deepen their understanding of the image of animals, produce the compassion for animals, promote their emotional development, and cultivate their awareness of caring for nature and the environment.
In the Mountain Kingston Bilingual Kindergarten Suzhou, we take advantage of children's nature of observing the outside world from the hole, and set up a number of holes of different sizes in various activity areas and functional classrooms, so that children can interact with the outside world from time to time.
In such an exploratory and creative campus, the Mountain Kingston Bilingual Kindergarten Suzhou has created a blend of childhood courses with corresponding concepts that are tailor-made for children.
BASED ON CHINA AND FACING THE WORLD, THE HOLISTIC EDUCATION STARTS HERE
The preschool education curriculum system of the Mountain Kingston Bilingual School Suzhou is specially designed for children aged 18 months to 6 years old. Based on the objectives of the national "Guide to Learning and Development of Children Aged 3-6 Years Old", the international cutting-edge preschool education practice experience is adopted, the overall exploration and game-based teaching methods are combined, and the international preschool education curriculum in personal, social and emotional development are covered, to perfectly interpret our educational goal of "based on China and facing the world".
HERE, WE WITNESS EVERY GROW OF CHILDREN TOGETHER
Every child has his own unique personality, talent and potential. This is the educational pursuit of every staff of Mountain Kingston to respect the law of growth and individuality of children, protect with love, nurture with responsibility, and look forward with patience, so as to help children develop a healthy body and mind, perceive Chinese and foreign culture, and stimulate enthusiasm for exploration.
The curriculum of Mountain Kingston Bilingual Kindergarten Suzhou is structured around four learning areas (Independence and Dependence, Communication and Exchange, Exploration and Research, Health and Development). Chinese and English project-based curriculum content closely related to life and hobbies of children are selected through holistic exploration and game-based methods.
In a natural bilingual environment, children can easily and naturally master Chinese and English, and also learn and acquire knowledge and skills in various fields in English, so as to lay a solid foundation for becoming cross-cultural international talents.
In the natural architectural environment, we create a real learning environment for children. We accompany the children to experience interesting and colorful sports activities and feel the beauty of sports. We guide the children to perceive Chinese and foreign cultures and appreciate the beauty of humanities. We lead the children to enjoy artistic expression and feel the beauty of art. We assist the children to explore science in life and feel the beauty of science. We hope that the sports can become a habit, the reading can become a hobby, the culture can cultivate sentiment, the art can enrich the world of children, the science can nourish the mind of children, and the truth, kindness and beauty can become the spiritual features of children.
BEGIN WITH THE END AND CHEER FOR EACH GROWTH
The world is full of unknowns in the eyes of children. They like and are good at exploring in their own way. On the premise of respecting the laws of early childhood education, we encourage them to explore the surrounding environment and express themselves through the language that is "expressible, communicable and easy to understand".
In the basic core curriculum, the education is personalized on the basis of children's hobby, creativity, self-expression and personality development, according to the cycle of "opening the door to learning, capturing children's curiosity, setting up stimulating environments, cultivating overall concepts, acquiring exploration and expression, and celebrating the end of learning", and the educational policy of "allowing children to learn and develop at their own unique rhythm".
Teachers at Mountain Kingston Bilingual Kindergarten Suzhou emphasize the individual learning differences of children in their daily learning and life, and provide the professional, comprehensive and continuous observation and interactive teaching evaluation, so that children, parents and teachers can become the main body of education together. We firmly believe that only a healthy home-school co-construction can provide children with the best quality preschool education and achieve their all-round development.
A PERSON'S ACHIEVEMENT DEPENDS LARGELY ON HIS CHILDHOOD EDUCATION
"A person's achievement depends largely on his childhood education." The preschool education is enlightenment education and foundational education, which plays a fundamental and leading role in building a lifelong education system. We will support children to develop the healthy mind and body, and cultivate good behavior habits. We will guide children to take root in Chinese culture, expand their international vision, and cultivate the future-oriented capability and core literacy.
We hope that children are humble and inclusive, kind and loving, tenacious, confident, courageous, positive and optimistic, and can happily become the best that they can be.
We expect that children can start from the school to create a better world in the future with intelligence, practice and innovation.
