Message from the Principal

September 2022

I am delighted to share with you the School’s achievements and event highlights, to mark an end of this academic year and a beginning of a new stage ahead.

Wong Tai Shan students are multitalented and they have shone in interschool competitions. We have won champion titles in the HKSSF Inter-school Athletics Competition, Speech Festival, music and STEM-related competitions, and more (kindly refer to the list of awards in this Newsletter). The joy and sense of achievement gained from victory give us motivation to aim higher, and the pride goes far beyond winning. It is the lessons we learnt, the hardship we endured, the difficulties we overcame and the teamwork we built that counted the most.

The diverse provision of activities and visits organised by subject departments and administrative sections, amid the changing pandemic situation, has further promoted the fact that meaningful learning happens both inside and outside of the classroom. Our students enjoy coming to school and participating in all programmes as part of their colourful school life. Their quest for knowledge and curiosity about the world are further nurtured.

Whereas for everyday learning, forming good habits and setting achievable targets are still the core matter. With pre-lesson preparation, teachers co-construct knowledge with students who contribute equally in the learning process, thus further enhancing learning and teaching effectiveness. We will continue to promote the reading atmosphere, encouraging students to read extensively and using reading as a means to cultivate positivity and good virtues. While there is only one student who can rank the first, all learners are capable of making progress. Academic success will be the ultimate harvest of diligence and perseverance coupled with effective learning strategies. Let us set new goals and achieve them with our all-out effort.

Students, I am ready for the new challenges ahead. Are you?
