Kingston International School’s Lower Primary campus, at 113 Waterloo Road in Kowloon Tong, serves children aged 5 to 8 (Years 1 to 3) within the school’s IB Primary Years Programme. Each class is co-taught by an English teacher and a Putonghua teacher, supporting bilingual learning in both languages. Students participate in a variety of enrichment activities, including the Choir, Orchestra, and Newspaper Club, as well as community-based initiatives like the Kingston Environmental Group and Student Representative Council. Located in a central but peaceful neighbourhood of Hong Kong, the Lower Primary campus is part of a three-campus network that continues the school’s bilingual early years education into the primary grades.
