From January 26 to 28, our F.5 students enthusiastically participated in the Citizenship and Social Development Mainland Study Tour organized by the Education Bureau.

During the three-day trip, our students had a unique opportunity to visit the enchanting Huangyan Cave Scenic Spot (黃岩洞景區), immersed themselves in the profound teachings of Confucianism at the venerable Deqing Ancient Academy (德慶學宮), explored the resplendent Longmu Imperial Ancestral Temple (悅城龍母祖廟), Song Dynasty Old City Wall (宋城牆), China Duanyan Museum (中國端硯博物館), and the picturesque Zijing Xidi (紫荊西堤) as well as the Seven Star Crags Scenic Area (七星岩).

By actively engaging in this multifaceted cultural trip, our students have gained a tangible understanding of and cultivated an affection for the richness of Chinese culture, thereby strengthening their sense of national identity.

 

 

The English Drama Club recently organized a captivating drama appreciation activity that immersed our students in the mesmerizing world of “Faith Healer.” This critically acclaimed play, written by Brian Friel, proved to be a thought-provoking and emotionally charged theatrical experience that left a lasting impact on all who attended.

Ocean Park hosted their annual “Christmas SING Concert– Jingle All the Way”, featuring carefully planned performances by different local groups. In addition to a choir singing heartwarming Christmas tunes, there were live orchestra performances and prominent dancers also joined, celebrating a warm Christmas together.

Our School Choir and Symphonic Band took part in this event to provide students with an opportunity to perform outside school, broaden their horizons, and enhance their performing skills.

This year’s Inter-house Volleyball Competition, organized by Blue House, was held on 18 and 22 January 2024 just after our first term exam had ended.

We all relished the delightful occasion!

Results are as follows:

Champion：Red House

In December 2023, our School Picnic was organized to provide students with a memorable day outside the classroom. Different classes went to different places, like Discovery Bay, Cheung Chau, Peng Chau, Butterfly Beach, Cafeteria Beach, Tai Mei Tuk, and Ocean Park. It was an opportunity for students to connect with nature, engage in recreational activities, and foster social bonds with their peers.

Our Information Day cum Admission Talk was held in December 2023. With a record-breaking attendance of over 1,300 parents and students, the afternoon was filled with excitement and enthusiasm, enjoying a full house.

Engaging Admission Talk

In our Admission Talk, apart from a school overview and introduction of the SSPA interview arrangements, our students shared their school lives in Wong Tai Shan. Meanwhile, our alumni, currently studying Medicine and Surgery, Law, Actuarial Analysis and Architecture at HKU and CUHK, recounted their success stories. The Q&A session that followed was lively with parents eagerly inquiring further about our school.
