The school holds three consecutive days of ‘Learning without Walls’, allowing students to extend classroom learning into real-world experiences, including exchanges in Mainland to broaden their horizons. We also organise themed learning days to equip students at all levels with knowledge from different subjects to solve real-life problems.
