Xu Beihong Art Kindergarten - Institutional Reviews

There are only two private demonstration gardens in Shanghai, and Xu Beihong Art Kindergarten is one of them. In 1997, Xu Beihong Art Kindergarten was founded in Baoshan District, and gradually developed into Xu Beihong Beibeima Education Development Group, which gathered Xu Beihong Kindergarten, Gaojing Beibeima Kindergarten and Dachang Beibeima Kindergarten. As its name suggests, Xu Beihong Art Kindergarten is an old-fashioned high-quality kindergarten with art education characteristics, and has won the honors of National Excellent Private Kindergarten, Baoshan District Art Characteristic School, etc., and is very well-known in Baoshan District and even the whole of Shanghai, and is sought after by many parents.

Xu Beihong Kindergarten is located in Gaojing Village, Baoshan District, covering an area of 5,000 square meters, including 1,100 square meters of outdoor venues and green areas, with sufficient space for children's activities. The park has a beautiful environment and a high degree of greening, and the outdoor venues are equipped with fish ponds, vegetable gardens, slides, large toys, etc., and the outdoor activity facilities are not particularly rich, but they can still basically meet the needs of young children. The indoor space is large, with a reading room, an art room, a playroom, etc. The classrooms are bright and spacious, clean and tidy, and warmly decorated, but due to the long construction time, some of the facilities are slightly outdated, and the overall environment and hardware facilities are at a medium level.

Xu Beihong Kindergarten, which features "experience art", is very professional in art education. In one of the art learning activities, the teacher teaches children to draw crayon drawing, Chinese painting, color painting, line drawing and other activities, encouraging children to imagine and create paintings. Another course, the Independent Art and Creativity Course, provides a variety of materials for children at different stages, allowing children to choose their own areas and materials to create. In terms of literature and art teaching, Xu Beihong Kindergarten also set up courses such as Go and calligraphy. In addition, early childhood education attaches great importance to English teaching, and Xu Beihong Kindergarten is no exception, carrying out English classes for foreign teachers once a week. Compared with bilingual kindergartens, Xu Beihong's English teaching is not outstanding, and art education is where its advantages lie.

In terms of outdoor activities, Xu Beihong Kindergarten arranges three outdoor activities in the morning, noon and lower every day, with a total time of about 2 hours, including free activities, equipment games, group games, morning exercises, etc. In terms of physical education, Xu Beihong Kindergarten provides karate activities and fencing activities, both of which are taught by full-time coaches or professionals. The learning effect of young children is not obvious, but in kindergarten, the core of the physical education curriculum is to cultivate children's interest in sports, and the mastery of physical activity and skills is not the most critical.

It is worth mentioning that Xu Beihong Kindergarten has a wealth of extracurricular activities. Many kindergartens are worried about taking responsibility, or think that the organization of extracurricular activities is troublesome, and there are few social practice activities. Xu Beihong Kindergarten often organizes children to go out to carry out activities, such as visiting fire squadrons, armed police forces, banks, post offices, etc., aiming to help children broaden their horizons and understand society. In addition, club activities such as "learning to be a primary school student" and "story king" to enrich children's lives are more common in Xu Beihong Kindergarten. In general, the curriculum of Xu Beihong Kindergarten is mainly art-based, and other regular courses are also very rich.

In recent years, there have been an endless number of injuries to children in kindergartens, and the safety of kindergartens has always been the focus of attention of all parents. The safety measures of Xu Beihong Kindergarten are relatively standardized, not only equipped with safety and technical defense facilities in accordance with the requirements of the Education Bureau, but also require the registration of personnel entering the kindergarten, and all parents bring their parent pick-up cards. If a child has an accident in kindergarten, teachers and health teachers who have been trained in child emergency care will help them in time.

Young children have limited expression skills and find it difficult to explain their own situation in the kindergarten, so communication between the kindergarten and parents is particularly important. In addition to direct communication such as home visits, telephone visits and WeChat, Xu Beihong kindergarten teachers will let parents know about their children's situation through "children's growth files" and "one evaluation a day". Every semester, Xu Beihong Kindergarten holds an open day for parents, with the aim of allowing parents to feel the living and learning environment of their children.

Xu Beihong Kindergarten has a nursery class, large, medium and small classes, usually a class is equipped with 2 teachers and 1 nursery, and the youngest nursery class is assigned 1 life teacher. All the employees of Xu Beihong Kindergarten hold the corresponding post certificate, the life teacher has the nursery qualification certificate, and the nutritionist holds the nutrition qualification certificate. In addition, all employees will be trained and assessed on a regular basis. Teachers of professional courses such as Go and fencing are not kindergarten employees, and although they are professionals, not all of them have kindergarten teacher qualifications.

Xu Beihong's meal fee is 15 yuan per day, and the agency fee includes course material fees, social practice fees, daily necessities fees, etc., the specific price is uncertain, and it is collected at the beginning of each semester and settled at the end of the semester. Xu Beihong Kindergarten charges different fees for children with different identities, the tuition fee for community students is 600 yuan/month, and for non-community students is 3,500 yuan. Parents who wish to enter the kindergarten must log in to the official website of the kindergarten in March to register, and then bring their children to participate in the enrollment interview, the interview process is divided into self-introduction, picture recognition, sports test, behavior and habit observation and other parts, the content is more, but the difficulty is not high.
