🎯 Mission

Our school's philosophy is based on Christ's teaching with a focus on "not to be served but to serve". To nurture children's personality of Jesus and let them learn about God and Christian faith. We aim to develop our students as whole people. We concentrate on their moral, intellectual, physical, social, artistic and spiritual development - finding a balance in their life. After our teaching, we hope our students can learn, think, explore, create and be innovative to achieve lifelong learning.

📚 Approach & Strategies

Adopt diversified teaching strategies such as adopting discovery learning, STEAM education, e-learning, differentiated instruction, developing students' self-directed learning capability and consolidating teaching effectiveness. Utilize flexible lesson time and implement cross-curriculum learning and e-learning platforms, which enhance whole-person development.

💛 SEN Support

Special Educational Needs Coordinator leads the Student Support Team to deploy grants (such as Learning Support Grant and Grant for Supporting Non-Chinese Speaking Students with Special Educational Needs), implementing specific measures to support students with special educational needs (such as teaching adaptation and assessment accommodation, learning support group, school-based speech therapy services, school-based educational psychology services), establishing mechanism to solicit parents' views and discussion on students’ learning progress.

🎨 Whole-person Learning

1. Our school aims at 'one life, one sport, one art and one service', organizing different sports, art and uniformed groups activities. 2. Actively participate in inter-school competitions, so to let students know about themselves better, learn to appreciate others and gain more successful experiences. 3. Arrange different kinds of visits, talks and variety shows in different levels so as to enhance students' multi-intelligence as well as expose their potentials and learning outcomes.
