Apart from using eLearning tools for interactive learning, our school designs a school coding curriculum and incorporate I&T elements in STREAM education to broaden students’ scope of learning and horizons. Being a Catholic school, our school also accords high priority to values education. In consideration of the Catholic Education vision and mission and our school’s core values, we optimise the values education curriculum, naturally connecting various disciplines of learning, to provide students with diversified and meaningful learning experiences within and beyond the classroom.
