🎯 Mission

Respect and implement the right to education for children. Fulfill the spirit of humanistic education. School, parents and community collaborate to create a learning environment where children can flourish and develop their potential to the fullest. Children can also acquire self-learning ability and adopt positive values to have a foothold in society and open their eyes to the world.

📚 Approach & Strategies

Implement the "3A Campus" Scheme, focusing on the development of three aspects: Academic (academic enhancement), Attitude (moral and character education) and Arts (art cultivation). Our focuses are on the development of students' self-directed learning and cultivation of students' active learning attitudes. Teachers implement the "brain-based teaching" and the "13 HOT Skills" learning strategies to achieve the three classroom highs (high participation, high display, high feedback). Through a wide variety of activities, values education and positive education is promoted and students can cultivate the artistic accomplishment and enrich students' life-wide learning experiences.

💛 SEN Support

The Student Support Team holds regular meetings to assist students with special education needs. Specific measures will be provided for supporting them.

🎨 Whole-person Learning

Multi-intelligence courses are provided for all students. In addition, a wide range of extra curricular activities are organized such as Boy Scouts, Girl Guides, Ball Teams, Choir, Erhu Class, Karate, Gymnastics, Drama, the Mathematical Olympiad Course, Cambridge English, Robotic Class, STEAM Class, Rope Skipping, etc. Through these activities, students can extend their potential according to their own interests and strengths.
