A group of our enthusiastic new students enjoyed a memorable trip to Ngong Ping, experiencing both breathtaking sights and the opportunity to bond with their schoolmates.

The highlight of the excursion was the Ngong Ping 360 Crystal Cable Car, offering a ride with stunning panoramic views as they ascended from Tung Chung to Ngong Ping Village. The transparent floor of the crystal cabin provided a unique and exhilarating perspective of the landscape below.

Upon arriving at Ngong Ping Village, our students explored the vibrant shops and cultural attractions before visiting the renowned Big Buddha. They also savored the delicious flavors of tofu pudding, a traditional and popular Chinese treat, adding a delightful culinary experience to the trip.

We look forward to organizing more enriching excursions to broaden our students’ horizons and enhance their educational journey.

Organized by the Hong Kong Institute of Certified Public Accountants (HKICPA), five of our F.5 BAFS students joined a visit to PwC, one of the world-renowned Big Four accounting firms.

Following an insightful session conducted by the firm’s representative sharing her profound knowledge and expertise, our students were offered an office tour as a unique opportunity to observe the professional environment, intricate operations, and dedication of the teams working collaboratively to deliver exceptional services.

Apart from fostering a deeper appreciation for the profession, the visit has been an excellent platform to expand our students’ networks through interactions with like-minded peers from other schools.

Our Form 4 students participated in our patriotic film appreciation activity and watched Ne Zha 2. Aiming at deepening their understanding of our country’s history and current situation, the event blended education with entertainment. The film, rich in Chinese cultural elements, tells a story of heroism and resilience, linking ancient myths to modern values through vivid animation. Students found the engaging plot both enjoyable and informative, noting how it made learning about national heritage fun and memorable.

The Wellness Buddies Programme, organised by The Mental Health Association of Hong Kong, aimed to nurture mental resilience among students. Through regular meetings, our students engaged in discussions and activities that fostered a supportive community.

A highlight of the programme included visits to the Chill Lab, an experimental youth mental health game space where students explored relaxation techniques and mindfulness practices through interactive games. As ambassadors of mental well-being, our Wellness Buddies also took part in the Treasure Hunt Day, where they promoted awareness and shared resources with their peers, encouraging everyone to prioritise their emotional awareness.

This year’s Inter-class Basketball Competition, meticulously organized by the Student Union, proved to be a smashing success. Students demonstrated not only their commendable basketball prowess but also their unwavering perseverance and exceptional team spirit. The competition generated immense excitement, standing out as a significant highlight and creating joyful, lasting memories for all participants and spectators.

Our 47th Speech Day, a momentous occasion and a day to celebrate our Form 6 students’ graduation, was held recently with Dr. Loi Ting Shiin Samuel, Chairman of the HKSYCIA, as our Guest of Honour.

A collage as a souvenir presented to Dr. Loi from our graduate representative captures memorable moments on campus. Like sunlight turning our corridors golden, it highlights the beauty of youth and signifies the brilliance of education being a journey filled with laughter and growth.

To enhance the celebratory atmosphere of the ceremony, our Chinese Dance Team gave a poetic dance performance, while our School Choir angelically sang ‘The Music’s Always There With You’,  reminding our graduates that even in challenging times, music can offer solace and inspiration. Two of our graduates also performed a heartfelt duet that resonated deeply with the graduating class, receiving thunderous applause from the audience.

Lastly, quoting Dr. Loi’s enlightening keynote address, “Dream big dreams. Possibilities are endless.” We believe our graduates will keep up their courage and colour their future with great visions, moving forward to embrace new milestones ahead while cherishing the enduring bond they share with the school.

School Report by the Principal

Our memorable Treasure Hunt Day transformed the school hall into a vibrant hub of laughter, creativity, and camaraderie, which was just the boost we needed before the commencement of our final exam.

Students and teachers alike embraced the spirit of adventure, teaming up to crack riddles at the booth games where hidden “treasures” turned out to be not just prizes, but moments of connection and lighthearted fun. The air was filled with the soothing scent of lavender essential oils crafted by our budding aromatherapists, while the hall buzzed with laughter over funny photo booth snapshots, heartwarming thank you cards for loved ones, and friendly challenges among peers. Others folded lucky clover origami as tiny tokens of resilience for the exam season.

Everyone savored the sweet conclusion of chilly treats, sharing stories and smiles.

The event reminded us all that even in busy times, joy can be found in simple pleasures like a shared laugh, a creative spark of fun, and the memories made together. With these as the real treasures, a heartfelt thank you goes to every keen participant for enjoying the occasion and our Guidance and Counselling Section for offering such a refreshing pause in the term.

An engaging and interactive “Meet and Greet Small Animals (Reptiles) Session” was conducted recently. Facilitated by a knowledgeable speaker, Mr. Oscar Lai, the introductory discourse enabled our Form Two students to acquire a foundational understanding of various reptilian species. Furthermore, the opportunity for direct engagement with these interesting creatures fostered an enhanced capacity for empathy, not only towards animals but also the broader natural world.

Our Visual Arts Exhibition showcased our students’ outstanding artworks from this academic year, featuring diverse pieces ranging from Eastern and Western media to three-dimensional works demonstrating their technical skills and creative vision.

The event has highlighted our students’ exceptional talent in artistic expressions as well as their schoolmates’ keen support for these young artists’ innovation.
