HKA's PLAYGROUP

Join HKA’s Playgroup designed specifically for 2 to 3 year olds and their caregivers! 

Take advantage of a FREE Playgroup taster session at HKA's award winning Sai Kung campus. Our Playgroup programme is for 2 to 3 year old toddlers and accompanying adults. Children who are 3 years of age can transition to an unaccompanied programme designed to support children with becoming self-directed as they learn and develop at their own individual pace.

For this hands-on shared learning experience, our Early Childhood educators have adapted the International Baccalaureate framework to stimulate young minds and support children as makers of their own meaning. Select the schedule which works best for your family and register for your FREE taster session today to experience the joy of discovery with your child!

As part of the HKA community, Playgroup participants are invited to a variety of community events and parent education opportunities as well as having access to our outstanding library. Participants can also guarantee an invitation for assessment for the following school year.
