School News

As the new academic year commences, we took the opportunity to celebrate our recent HKDSE achievements as well as the milestone signified by our school’s 50th anniversary.

With our very pleasant DSE results, our Principal encouraged students to continue to strive for excellence. Meanwhile, honouring our golden jubilee anniversary with our distinguished guests, the whole school counted down to illuminate the ceremonial lights with vibrant confetti elating the vibe.

Indeed, as one of the major celebratory initiatives, we have proceeded with a series of renovation projects in recent months to upgrade the campus conducive to students’ learning and wellbeing. To mark the unveiling of our STEAM Room opening the door to a new space of leading-edge knowledge and creativity, we had a student-operated drone delivering the key to the Chairman of our school sponsoring body, Hong Kong Sze Yap Commercial and Industrial Association, followed by a ribbon-cutting ceremony. Our guests greatly enjoyed visiting various STEAM booths and merrily interacted with our students demonstrating their innovative works.

Our End-of-Term Ceremony with a theme on “Expressing Gratitude, Honoring Dedication, and Celebrating Achievements” was a significant occasion for all members of our school to recognize our students’ academic and non-academic accomplishments, as well as to honor the tremendous support and guidance from our dedicated teachers and loving parents.

With a total of around 200 students receiving awards across 40 categories and parents attending the event to share the joy, it was truly a momentous celebration. The ceremony concluded with a heartwarming photo session to capture the exuberance of the day. With the school year finely wrapped up, we look forward to our diligent and exciting work of 2025-26.

In our previous Kin-Ball activity, students from various levels gathered to participate in this fun, team-oriented emerging sport that promotes cooperation and physical fitness. The atmosphere was filled with laughter as the teams worked together to keep the giant ball in play. With their enjoyment and enthusiasm, it was a memorable experience fostering school spirit and camaraderie. We look forward to more occasions like this in the future!

Organized by our Arts Night Committee, the remarkable occasion showcased a vibrant blend of music, dance, and drama. Shining on stage, our student performers captivated everyone with their enthusiasm and dedication.

We cherish the wonderful memories created and look forward to welcoming our beloved school community back with other incredible events in store for the new academic year.

Our teachers’ performance

Our 30 school ambassadors, having committed to serving in the coming school year, participated in a one-day event designed to help them confidently perform their roles in representing the school and interacting with guests.

They first visited the CUHK Art Museum and joined a guided tour as well as an art workshop led by the museum’s ambassadors. Closely observing their presentation skills and engaging in the interactions, they gained valuable insights and inspiration on storytelling.

In a delightful tram tour around Hong Kong Island in the afternoon, our ambassadors took turns to introduce various checkpoints in groups, applying the skills they had learned in the morning. The tram ride also featured a team building activity fostering bonding and laughter. They sang together with their mobile phone flashlights on, creating a lively mini-concert atmosphere.

In order for our Form 1 and 2 students to assess their acquisition of mathematical knowledge in the whole academic year, our annual Math Game Day was held with support and well-designed questions provided by some of our enthusiastic Form 3 helpers.

Students took turns to answer concept building questions and enjoyed a wide variety of booth games. Solving puzzles and playing Math-related games like Sudoku and Nim, they had a great time applying and consolidating what they had learnt. Ultimately, in the inter-class competition, challenging questions were raised to challenge the representatives. Overall, the occasion was an exciting and joyous conclusion of their hard work this year.

Our students embraced the spirit of adventure by participating in thrilling activities such as ziplining and climbing. These experiences not only challenged them physically but also fostered their teamwork, confidence, and resilience. It was inspiring to see our students step out of their comfort zones, support one another, and celebrate their achievements together, making unforgettable memories along the way.

Our students participated in a study tour where they explored the dynamic relationship between innovation, heritage, and economic growth. Highlights included visits to the Shanghai Auto Museum, China Art Museum, and the Bund in Shanghai, offering insights into industrial evolution and cultural integration. They also examined the development of China’s banking system, experienced the charm of Zhujiajiao Ancient Town, and engaged with a local university and enterprise to understand urban planning and business challenges. The tour concluded with a cultural reflection at Yu Garden, deepening their appreciation of how tradition and modernity coexist in a global city like Shanghai.

The Jockey Club “Flying High” Sports Programme – Olympic Journey was launched at our school this year with a donation from the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust. The programme aims to promote Olympic values through sports-related games, identify students’ athletic talents, and enhance their understanding of the sports industry while encouraging them to pursue careers in this field through sports career talks.

Through this game-based programme, students are encouraged to participate in sports, enhance their fitness and interest in athletics, learn the values of Olympism—respect, friendship, and excellence—and strengthen their physical and mental development. Two new Olympic sports, skateboarding and breaking, have been introduced in our PE lessons too.

Our students have actively engaged and greatly enjoyed the programme.

To enhance our non-Chinese-speaking students’ understanding of Hong Kong, a day trip to Lantau Island as a one-on-one collaborative learning experience was arranged for our NCS and local students, allowing them to relax and enjoy outdoor activities after the whole academic year.

Most of the students visited Lantau Island for the first time, took their first cable car ride, and tried Chinese vegetarian cuisine, all of which excited them greatly.

Under the guidance of a professional tour guide, our students actively learned about the unique culture and history of Tai O, including insights into the nationally recognized intangible cultural heritage—the Tai O Dragon Boat Water Parade—its historical background, cultural significance, and its importance to the community.
