Little Dalton is a private independent kindergarten with a diverse student body which provides child-centered education for families in Hong Kong. Our founding board members identified the need in Hong Kong for a progressive approach to learning which embodied traditional values and incorporated real world inquiry-based learning. Based on this and the belief that children should be respected and trusted to lead their learning and follow their passions, the Hong Kong Dalton community was founded in 2013. Little Dalton is joined in the Dalton community by miniDalton, a playgroup for preschool learners from 1 to 2 years old and Dalton School Hong Kong, our primary school from Reception to Grade 6.  

The first Little Dalton campus opened in Pok Fu Lam in Hong Kong in 2013. Little Dalton opened their second campus in 2017, along with miniDalton and Dalton School Hong Kong in the current West Kowloon location. Over the years we have served students and families across Hong Kong. In 2021, our spacious West Kowloon campus merged with the Pok Fu Lam campus to house all our Little Dalton students, and in order to further expand our Dalton community, our Little Dalton Kindergarten, along with Dalton School Hong Kong and miniDalton, moved into our Mid-Levels home in 2024. Dalton School Hong Kong in our new campus will serve both primary and secondary students. We are proud to be able to provide our community with a through-train school and a state of the art space which will nurture students throughout their school careers.

Since our school’s inception, our community has grown significantly and Little Dalton is now home to a large, diverse student body of half-day and full-day classes ranging from Pre-K to K3. Our dynamic team continues to be committed to facilitating child-centered education in both International and Local streams, where every student is positioned to develop and thrive in all areas of development.

We look forward to the continued growth of our Dalton community and enthusiastically welcome like-minded parents, students, and educators to join us on our journey.
