Vision & Mission

School ethos

The school ethos is one of mutual care, respect and sincerity among all members of the school community. We focus on whole-person development and encourage each student to realise her potential. Students are expected to be courteous and responsible, to develop different interests, to expand their creativity and to participate fully in the life of the school. In addition, participation in competitions both within the school and outside is encouraged and we celebrate both students' efforts and achievements. Headed by the Assistant Principal, the Student Development Committee is in charge of coordinating and liaising among the different committees so as to ensure the best possible nurturing of our students. Specifically, the Guidance and Counselling Committee takes care of students' developmental needs; the Discipline Committee helps cultivate their self-discipline and sense of mutual respect; the Careers Committee helps students to make informed choices by understanding their own interests, aptitudes and aspirations; and the Moral, Civic, National & National Security Education Committee holds a variety of programmes to strengthen students' sense of national identity and to guide them on the right ways to exercise civic rights and duties. Lastly, our Social Workers provide support and counselling to individual students.

Vision & mission

Our school is dedicated to helping our students to become life-long self-initiated learners by providing them with a well-facilitated and caring environment as well as a balanced education relevant to the rapidly changing world.
