🎯 Mission

We aim to achieve a balance in the education of pupils in the areas of development that include: moral, academic, physical, social and aesthetic aspects. We help pupils develop an attitude of working to their fullest potential and a love of others under a religious and spiritual influence.

📚 Approach & Strategies

Depending on students' abilities and wishes, the Chinese Language Programme in Putonghua has been implemented in some classes in Grades 1-4. Cooperative Learning Strategies and Space Town English Curriculum are implemented in Years 1-3. Flexible deployment of lesson time is provided to cater for activities and project learning in various subjects. In addition to regular classes, students participate in Life-wide Learning activities and Design Thinking programmes to enhance their interest in learning and to broaden their learning experience.

💛 SEN Support

The Student Support Team is formed by the Vice Principal, School Social Worker and Special Educational Needs Coordinator to implement the Whole School Approach (WSA) to Integrated Education based on five underlying principles, namely early identification, early intervention, WSA, home-school co-operation and cross-sector collaboration. The school also provides School-based Speech Therapy Service and School-based Educational Psychology Service to support students with different learning needs.

🎨 Whole-person Learning

We endeavour to provide opportunities for pupils to learn outside of normal school work. The activities we hold compliment our curriculum planning and key focus items. Every year, we organize the Sports Day, Open Day, Interdisciplinary Theme Study Day, STEAM Activities Day etc. There are also other optional activities available, for example, Choir, Tae Kwon Do, Ball Games, Artificial Intelligence Course, School Pop Band, Martial Art, Chinese Drum Training Course and Lion Dance training etc.
