The Second English Speaking Activity Day this year, held on April 17, 2019, proceeded with the theme “Old Hong Kong”. It was enlightening and successful in creating a nostalgic ambience in the school playground with games and food our parents and even grandparents enjoyed during their childhood.

Students were able to experience the recreational activities preceding generations enjoyed so much before the invention of smartphones and videogames.

In addition to the walk down ‘memory lane’, school houses were also able to gain a whopping boost in house marks from playing the games.
 

 With the active participation of the competitors, enlightening sharings from M1 and M2 students and interesting decorations contributed by Class 4D, the Maths Day was successfully held on 14th March, 2019.

In April 2019, forty-four teachers and students of our school joined a study tour organized by EDB to Chongqing, spending four days studying the history and culture of Chongqing and Mainland China.
During the tour, teachers and students had the opportunity to visit Chongqing No. 8 Secondary School and had wonderful cultural exchange activities. In addition, they visited a commercial firm and many local historical and cultural attractions, such as Hongya Cave, Chongqing Three Gorges Museum, Chongqing Science and Technology Museum, Ciqiko Ancient Town (Porcelain Village) and Dazu Rock Carving and Dazu Rock Carving Museum.

Through this visit, the students had a better understanding of the recent economic and technological development of China over the last few years and the availability of potential opportunities for Hong Kong.
