Although the School was suspended because of the pandemic, our teachers tried our best to provide various supports to maintain students' learning, especially seeking ways to help those who stayed in mainland due to various reasons. Lessons were conducted using Zoom and students found very helpful. We hope students and their family are all safe, and additionally seize the chance to pick up the knowledge that they might have missed. If your teachers have prepared video clips for you, then you should be able to download and watch them over and over again.
We look forward to seeing the students again after the school resumes!

It is our pleasure to announce the opening of our new English Corner in the library!
Today, around 10 students came and joined some interesting English board / card games with Mr. Lau and Mr. Au.
Have a look at their funny and happy faces !!!
They were playing one of our most exciting games -
Geistes (閃靈快手 in Chinese)
Look! There were some detectives decoding the Moose Code.
The students learnt some easy English words while playing with their friends!
