🎯 Mission

Our mission is to provide quality education based on Christian heritage and concern for others. Students will explore their potential in an environment where East meets West, giving them the best of both cultures. We mentor our students, fostering their personal growth to encourage initiative, positive attitudes, individuality and creativity, providing a basis for lifelong learning.

💛 SEN Support

Activities such as talks and visits are organised regularly to enhance students' understanding of and respect for people of different abilities or backgrounds. 3. Professional development programmes are held regularly to enhance teachers' understanding of and skills in handling students of different abilities and backgrounds.

🎨 Whole-person Learning

Developing students’ Multiple Intelligences (MI) is one of our missions. We provide a variety of activities in areas of music, drama, dance, sports, visual arts, uniform teams and social services. We organise the A-School Excursion Week every year. All students join different local or overseas excursion programmes for cultural exchange and extended learning.
