LANGUAGE ENVIRONMENT

English Funland serves as a place of initiation of theme-based activities, film shows, Halloween Games Fair, English Newsletter Editorial Board, etc. which are all intended for strengthening students’ appreciation of language arts and contributing to a sense of commitment to the English culture.

The English Editorial Board is a driving force of the reading-writing culture on campus. It consists of four teacher advisors and student writers ranging from S1 to S5. Our school English newsletter “Elegantianism” provides a good chance for committed editorial members to apply the language in a purposeful manner and attract a wide readership of English by means of presenting interesting and inspiring reading materials to the schoolmates. “Elegantianism” acts an “eye on the world”, exposing the reading populations to a wide variety of subject matters and genres and the student-editors and student-writers to an adequate range of writing and editing skills as required in the prospective HKDSE English.

School-wide English activities have been organised. They impress the young minds with excitement and joy, including S1 Halloween Games Fair, S2 Inter-class Storytelling Contest, S3 Glider Design Competition, S4 Debate, Summer Inter-class Spelling Bee Contests, Integration Programme to the United Kingdom, English Speaking Days, and Funland lunchtime activities.

Students are also encouraged to participate in different external competitions, including the Hong Kong Budding Poets Award, 70^th Hong Kong Schools Speech Festival, Good People Good Deeds English Writing Competition 2018, Reading KOL – Short Video Competition 2018, Poem Writing Competition organized by the City University of Hong Kong, the Sino Junior Reporter Programme run by the SCMP and so on.

This is our motto - "we make an effort, we make a difference". The wide range of activities we offer deserves the wide applause of both participants and their parents.
