IB-PYP Immersion Program
Course Start Date: January 8th to June 14th (excluding school holidays)
HWA International School specially offers the IB-PYP Immersion Program to students from all over the world. We provide opportunities for all students to experience HWA’s unique bicultural courses by joining in our existing classroom. We believe that continuous cultural penetration and communication can effectively improve language and social skills.
According to research, students who participate in dual-language immersion programs often gain good academic skills in addition to linguistic proficiency. Achieving full bilingualism and biliteracy in Chinese and English is possible for students. Language learning is easiest for students at an early age. By the fifth grade, students can learn to speak, read, and write successfully in both languages by being immersed in and receiving instruction in a second language. Both cultural literacy and improved cognitive abilities are developed in students. The capacity to communicate with people from various linguistic and cultural backgrounds is advantageous for language immersion students.
Your child will be educated to be a nurturing, caring, and reflective future global leader. That’s what Hwa International School wants to encourage. Singapore’s International Baccalaureate Primary School is a program that looks at developing bright and curious individuals and preparing them for the future.
