Vision & Mission
Our students are polite and well-disciplined. Through enhancing their self-confidence, self-respect, self-discipline and self-reliance, we endeavour to train them on how to approach any adversities they may encounter in life. As a result, they can confidently progress to courses offered by other institutions or contribute in their future workplaces and the society.
Based on the Buddhist perspective of loving-kindness, compassion, sympathetic joy, equanimity, faith, understanding, practice and realization, our school motto is to construct a pleasant learning environment for all students. We endeavour to encourage their learning interests, develop their potentials, and nurture their characters. We aim to help our students have a positive attitude towards life, learning and be valued members of our local community.
