🎯 Mission
We endeavour to create the best learning environment with equal emphasis on moral, civic and national education, intellectual growth, physical education, social and aesthetic development. We provide students with quality education which prepares them to become citizens with outstanding performance in both academic and behavioral spheres.
📚 Approach & Strategies
Learning tasks are designed through teachers' co-planning and based on the pupils' abilities and characteristics, aiming at providing sufficient learning opportunities. With the use of teaching strategies like self-directed learning and co-operative learning, teacher-student interaction is maximized and pupils can learn through a personal experiencing, self-motivated way.
💛 SEN Support
A Whole School Approach and Person Centred Approaches have been adopted to cater for learner differences. Our school adopts a 3-tier support model to provide students with SEN. Resources are deployed to provide appropriate and diversified support to these students so as to enhance their learning and adjustment to school life.
🎨 Whole-person Learning
A wide variety of extra-curricular activities are offered to our students on Friday afternoons on a fixed and rotational basis. We have Science activities, coding, sports training groups like athletic and ball games teams. For arts development, we have the choirs, drama group and music programs. To complement our extra-curricular program and to cater for our students' interests, different interest groups are available for students to participate after school or on weekends which focus on the orchestra, Chinese musical instruments classes, swimming classes, coding, etc. Concert, Sports Day and Swimming Gala are held annually.
