Compared with Xuhui, Yangpu and other strong education areas, Chongming District has relatively few educational resources, and there are not many high-quality schools, and Chongming Experimental Kindergarten, as one of the only two demonstration kindergartens in the city, has attracted the attention of many Chongming parents. Chongshi Kindergarten is affiliated to Chongming Experimental Primary School, located in Chengqiao Town, Xinchongxi Road, established independently in 1979, and expanded the new campus of Jianghai Mingduyuan in 2012, with one park and two sites, and has always been the leader of preschool education in Chongming District.
The outdoor site of Xinchongxi Road Park is wide, with plastic fields, hillside grasslands, and railing paths, but the shortcomings are that the indoor facilities are slightly outdated and the space is small. Located in Jianghai Mingdu Garden, the new garden covers an area of 8,700 square meters, with a construction area of 5,796 square meters, a new and tidy floor, spacious and bright classrooms, and an outdoor activity area with plastic venues, sand pools, slides and other facilities to meet the needs of children's outdoor exercise. The kindergarten is equipped with a role game room, an innovation lab, a multimedia activity room, Chongshi Street and other activity rooms. The interior decoration is colorful, the ceiling is dyed in the blue sky style, the decoration is childlike, and the overall environment is quite good.
Chongming District takes "green ecological island" as the construction goal, and Chongshi Kindergarten actively carries out ecological enlightenment education, forms its own kindergarten curriculum--- island green curriculum, and carries out a series of ecological Chongming pioneer activities. Garbage classification is one of the featured activities, Chongshi kindergarten through garbage classification lectures, small games to let children understand its meaning and specific operations, and then in the park to fully implement garbage classification. Not only is it limited to garbage disposal in the kindergarten, but also organizes children to go to the community to promote garbage sorting.
In the Green Love and Green Protection Activity, teachers designed various forms of teaching activities such as painting, language, music, science, and synthesis to enable children to understand the meaning and ways of protecting plants. At the same time, children in primary and secondary classes are encouraged to take care of the plants in the class, and children in the kindergarten are required to adopt the small trees in the garden, participate in planting, and practice environmental protection. Subtly, the children's environmental awareness has been established, and even parents are surprised that their children have so much environmental protection knowledge. In addition to ecological education, Chongshi Kindergarten's literary and artistic and gymnastics courses are of high quality, and many children have won awards in calligraphy and painting, gymnastics, and Olympiad competitions.
Chongming Experimental Kindergarten opens nursery to large classes, according to the location of enrollment, if there is a vacancy, will give priority to the separation of school-age children, non-Shanghai children can also apply, but the success rate is not high. In 2018, Chongming Kindergarten only accepts small class students, no transfer students, and the childcare fee is 700 yuan per month. Like Fengxian District, Chongming District has a large non-Shanghai population, and the registration restrictions for public parks are also appropriately relaxed.
