Vision & Mission
The school ethos is excellent. On top, we have the students' growing support committee, discipline committee and counselling committee. Under these committees, there are the citizenship education committee, health education committee, positive education committee and invitational education committee. All committees strive to promote Life-wide Counselling services and a caring school. We strive to establish a good relationship with the students, parents and the community. We encourage students to be responsible before asserting their rights; to discipline themselves before asking for freedom.
Our school seeks to provide quality all-round education for our students. We strive to enhance development in seven aspects of life encompassing moral, emotional and intellectual development, physical education, social integration, aesthetics and spiritual growth. We encourage our students to take the initiative to explore the world, to acquire international views and to maximise each individual's potential.
