Last week, our Year 6 students wrapped up an incredible camp week! From exciting adventures to team-building activities, everyone had the opportunity to step out of their comfort zones and try new experiences.

The famous jetty jump was definitely one of the highlights! Watching students take the plunge was both heartwarming and exhilarating as they cheered each other on. More than just activities, these experiences created unforgettable moments that will surely be cherished for years to come, fostering friendships and personal growth.

We’re so proud of our Year 6 students for embracing every challenge and creating such a vibrant and supportive camp community.

Our Y4 students took on an amazing challenge using VEX GO. They had to build their own robots and write the code to navigate a specific path and clean up rubbles following a simulated earthquake scenario. The room was filled with intense focus and incredible teamwork as they refined their programs.

Each successful clean-up run sparked cheers and priceless smiles, capturing a precious moment of triumph and achievement for every student. Way to go, future engineers!

A special thanks to Mr. Kai from RCHK for coming to help us with this engaging activity!

Applying their new knowledge, students created and built their own games using recycled cardboard and paper. Parents enjoyed playing with these games and participating in other activities set up around the school. Thank you to everyone who joined us!

Our Year 1 students made their way to Sai Kung town this week. They were on a mission to explore and understand the different roles people play in a community. They visited the market, the post office, the police station, and other spots around the town center. It was a great way to see their learning come to life.

We want to send a big shout-out and thank you to all the parent volunteers. We were so grateful for the incredible number of parents who joined us—your help was instrumental in making the day seamless and fun for the children.
