The school emphasises inquiry-based, play-rich experiences through activities such as sensory play, music and rhymes, dramatic storytelling, and S.T.E.A.M. projects. Central-specific enrichment includes Language Arts in English and Mandarin, Musical Theatre, arts, and sports options like Little Movers, Ballet, Jazz, and Multi-Sports. Families access the campus easily from Central MTR Station (D2 Exit) or nearby bus routes, with hourly parking in the same building.

Curriculum
Mulberry House International Kindergarten follows a dual-language English–Mandarin curriculum underpinned by the UK Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework. Learning is organised through inquiry-based projects that integrate communication, early literacy, numeracy, physical development, creative expression, and social–emotional skills. Teachers design play-rich experiences using music, movement, stories, sensory play, and hands-on exploration to support children’s development from infancy through early childhood. Kindergarten programmes (Pre-Nursery and K levels) follow structured EYFS learning goals while maintaining a bilingual, co-taught classroom environment. At the Central Campus, the curriculum extends into a Mandarin Immersion model and includes enrichment in Language Arts, S.T.E.A.M., arts, and sports for children up to age 12. These programmes build on the early-years foundation while strengthening Mandarin fluency, communication, and age-appropriate academic readiness.

Admissions

Admissions
1. Initial enquiry and school tour
Parents are encouraged to begin the process by arranging a Private School Tour or attending an Information Session for Prospective Parents. These sessions introduce the school’s bilingual programmes, learning approach, and campus environment. Bookings are made through the online form or by contacting the admissions team. Families can ask questions about language streams, class arrangements, and daily routines during these visits.

2. Prepare and submit the application
Parents complete the application form and submit required documents, including two passport-sized photos, the child’s birth certificate or passport with a valid visa, and copies of the parents’ identification documents. An Application Fee of HKD 40 is paid at the time of submission. Applications may be submitted online or delivered directly to the campus, after which the school sends a confirmation email within approximately seven working days.

3. Assessment and parent–child visit
Shortlisted families are invited for an assessment session, which may take place in a small-group or 1-to-1 play setting. Parents accompany their child during this visit, and teachers observe the child’s interaction, comfort and developmental readiness. The school notes that it welcomes families of all nationalities and that priority may be given to foreign passport holders. Parents also attend an admissions meeting to discuss alignment between family values and the school’s educational approach.

4. Placement decision
Following the assessment, the admissions team reviews the child’s profile and the availability of places in the relevant age group. Successful families receive a placement offer via email, including information about the child’s class, teachers and start date. If a class is full, the child may be offered a place on the waiting list. The decision is based on the child’s assessment and the school’s capacity in each age group.

5. Acceptance and registration
Families who choose to accept an offer confirm the place by paying the Registration Fee of HKD 970, which is non-refundable. This payment secures the child’s enrolment for the upcoming academic year. After confirming, families receive guidance on uniforms, class arrangements and start-of-year transition schedules. This step completes the admissions process.

Scholarships
The Mulberry House International Kindergarten website does not mention any scholarships, financial aid schemes, or bursaries.

Waitlist
Mulberry House International Kindergarten uses a standard waitlist system. If the relevant class or programme is full at the time of application, the child is placed on the waiting list after completing the assessment process. The website does not provide further details about waitlist priority, duration, or movement.
