🎯 Mission
Upholding Catholic parochial schools' beliefs, our school is devoted to proclaiming the Gospel, and encouraging students to experience the Christ spirit in a practical way. With the motto of Modesty, Love, Diligence and Honesty, we aim to cultivate our students' ability of self-study, self-development and self-realization. Meanwhile, we get our students ready to serve our community, to know our country and to embrace the world. Our students are guided to understand the importance of five core values of Catholic schools: Truth, Justice, Love, Life and Family.
📚 Approach & Strategies
1. Use Putonghua to teach Chinese Language subject, cooperating with reading, literacy and writing programme in order to prompt the awareness of using written Chinese. 2. Adopt 'Big Book approach' in Primary One in order to prompt students' abilities in using vocabulary, sentence and grammar; sets up eLearning for teaching core subjects. 3. Focus on teaching problem-solving skills in Mathematics. 4. Teach General Studies through science experiments, field trips and ecological learning activities. 5. Develop BYOD project to cooperate with online classrooms to enable students to make good use of I.T. to assist learning.
💛 SEN Support
Our school fosters an inclusive and caring environment, supporting students with special educational needs (SEN) through a whole-school approach and tailored services. The Student Support Team includes the Vice Principal, SENCo, teachers, social workers, teaching assistants, and school-based educational psychologists. We use the Learning Support Grant to employ additional staff and engage professionals, enabling specialized services like attention training and dyslexia support. Personalized accommodations for learning, homework, and assessments are provided, along with IEPs. Peer mentoring and regular parent communication further support student integration.
🎨 Whole-person Learning
Provide multiple interest classes such as padel, fencing, kinball, speed staking, athletics, rugby, basketball, football, fancy skipping, taekwondo, harp, ukulele, Chinese dance and lion dance; provide multiple intelligence lessons and project-based excursions; set up school uniform teams, including Scouts, Brownies, the Young Pioneers of Christ, Volunteer Team Road Safety Patrol, and Community Youth Club.
