Vision & Mission
We lay great emphasis on students' behaviour and conduct. We adopt the "Co-class Teacher System" from S.1 to S.6, which provides better support for individual students. With the concerted efforts of all teams/committees in the Whole Person Development Committee, various student support programmes and activities are organised according to students' needs at different stages of personal growth so as to inculcate students as responsible citizens. Counselling Team is set up to help students and the "One Student One Duty" Scheme has been launched. Also, 2 social workers from the International Social Services Hong Kong Branch station in school to provide professional advice for students. All S.1 students must participate in uniformed group activities to foster students' self-discipline, adherence to rules, and spirit of service. S.1 students are also required to stay for lunch at school and participate in the school's diverse S.1 adaptation activities. Additionally, a peer counseling program is in place to ensure comprehensive care and support for the growth of S.1 students.
It is our vision to enable every student to acquire a balanced education in the domains of ethics, intellect, physique, social skills and aesthetics. We pledge to nurture our students to strive in the pursuit of knowledge and to be good citizens who are committed to shouldering their responsibilities towards families and society.
