The Abbotsford Bilingual Model has two particular features that distinguish us from other bilingual programs:
A standard week at Abbotsford Primary School comprises 30x 50-minute sessions a week. The 30 sessions are divided into 5 domain areas - Chinese, English, Mathematics, Integrated Studies and Specialist Subjects.
Core Subjects | Specialist Subjects | ||||
1 | Chinese | English | Mathematics | Integrated Studies | Science |
2 | Physical Education | ||||
3 | Visual Arts | ||||
4 | Performing Arts | ||||
5 | Library (F-2) / Digital Technologies (3-6) | ||||
6 | Assembly / Wellbeing |
Each domain / subject area is assigned a language in which the curriculum is delivered:
Chinese (50% = 12.5 hours) | English (50% = 12.5 hours) |
Chinese Mathematics Physical Education Performing Arts Library (F-2) Digital Technologies (3-6) |
English Integrated Studies Science Visual Arts Assembly Wellbeing |
