🎯 Mission

Our school provides quality education and an enjoyable learning experience to children on the island. We train students to be good citizens: to be polite, righteous, diligent and honest as our school motto said.

📚 Approach & Strategies

Our curriculum covers 8 key learning areas. We focus on developing students to be biliterate and trilingual. NET coteach a certain amount of lessons with local English teachers. We adopt the Primary Literacy Programme (PLP-/RW) for P.1-P.3 and 'From Reading to Writing' for P.4-P.6. Chinese language in P.1 to P.3 is taught in Putonghua only in order to develop their abilities in listening, speaking, reading and writing.

💛 SEN Support

The Student Support Team, which consists of the Principal, Vice Principal, SENCO, the Curriculum Leader, the Student Guidance Teacher, the School Social Worker, the School-based Educational Psychologist and other teachers, is responsible for planning, implementing and evaluating the support for students in need. Other specialists and organizations will be invited to provide supports when necessary.

🎨 Whole-person Learning

On Wednesday, more than 30 different types of Multiple Intelligences Classes are provided to enrich students' learning experiences which include unicycling, rope skipping, Chinese drum team, pottery class, hip hop dance, and so on. Our school also provides various volunteer opportunities and uniformed team training, including Brownies, Cub Scouts, and Flag Guards.
