Enrich learning experience and realize self-worth

G.C.C.I.T.K.D. Cheong Wong Wai Primary School Carry forward the spirit of the school motto of "Education and Practice" to enable students to achieve balanced development in the five aspects of moral, intellectual, physical, social and aesthetic education, help students lay a good knowledge foundation, cultivate a sound personality, and explore their personal potential. Principal Liang Weiji firmly believes that every student is a unique and valuable individual, and hopes that they will have a positive attitude towards life that they practice every day. The school invests resources at every stage of growth, so that students can gradually build self-confidence, explore their potential, and move toward holistic development in an environment of acceptance and encouragement.

Step-by-step English education creates the advantages of parent-child reading together

The school's English curriculum has clear stage goals. The "Space Town" program is implemented in primary one to primary three to cultivate students' four major language skills and other learning abilities through sustainable literacy courses. In primary four to primary six, the school implements the "school-based reading curriculum", which introduces and deepens reading and writing teaching strategies, uses different text types to enrich students' literacy foundation, and supports students to gradually improve their literacy skills according to individual learning needs.

In addition, in order to create a parent-child reading environment, the school arranges for students to regularly take "small books" related to class themes home for reading. At the same time, the school will upload relevant reading content and audio recordings of silent reading areas to the school network. These extracurricular readings will closely match the classroom teaching content to consolidate what is learned in class, and also allow parents and children to use technology anytime, anywhere to increase the opportunities for them to be exposed to English with their children.

Break through STEAM education and break traditional subject barriers

The school has always kept pace with the times and cooperated with the development of social innovation and technology. It received a grant of more than NT$1.1 million from the "Quality Education Fund" to transform the original computer room into a multi-study room with STEAM teaching functions under the theme of "Make Our STEAM Come True". The STEAM Room has advanced and complete equipment, including: laser cutting machine, 4 three-dimensional printers, 2 charging cars, 30 sets of VR virtual reality glasses, multi-color electric screens, as well as various technological equipment such as drones and robots.

Students have achieved outstanding results in various STEAM-related competitions. For example, he won the championship in the Hong Kong Robotics Competition and represented Hong Kong in Dallas and St. Louis in the United States, where he stepped onto the international stage of the VEX IQ World Championship and competed with top teams from all over the world. However, what the school values ​​more than the awards is the growth and transformation of the students in the process. Principal Liang believes that "education should be more about guidance than help." Therefore, students are encouraged to be responsible for the design and production of robots. Help will only be provided at the appropriate time, allowing students to achieve breakthroughs through continuous attempts, and thereby hone their creative thinking and problem-solving resilience.

Systematic connection between kindergarten and primary school to promote home-school collaboration

Principal Liang said that when students enter primary school from kindergarten, it is an important identity change in their lives. The transition from kindergarten to primary school is not only a test for students, parents also experience the separation anxiety and reluctance caused by this change. In order to improve the adaptability of primary one students in unfamiliar environments and smoothly integrate into campus life, the school provides comprehensive support with systematic support. For example, an orientation day is held in June, where parent lectures are arranged to explain the school’s philosophy in detail; in August, an adaptation class is held, a half-day class lasting about a week, allowing prospective Primary 1 students and their parents to get to know teachers, visit special rooms, and get to know the campus environment together, effectively establishing a good mutual support network for parents. In addition, the school has customized a series of lectures and workshops, such as the "Primary One Opening Ceremony" for enlightenment and the "Primary One Growth Ceremony" for witnessing progress, so that parents can safely witness every step of their students' gradual independence.

Implement teaching in accordance with students' aptitude and respond to students' needs

The support after the start of school is equally meticulous. Principal Liang said: "We have implemented a double-teacher system in the first grade, with two head teachers and a deputy teacher taking care of every child in the class. This requires a considerable amount of resources. We choose to focus resources on the first-year students who need the most adaptability to ensure that they receive more personal and comprehensive care." In addition, teachers use passwords, visual prompts and interactive electronic whiteboards to help students engage in interactive learning. At the same time, teaching assistants will also join the class to assist, able to support individual students in need, achieve teaching in accordance with their aptitude, and respond to the expectations of parents and students.

Build a caring campus and find belonging and light

The school holds the "Shine the Stage" event every year to provide students who rarely have the opportunity to stand on the center of the stage (especially students with special learning needs) to create an opportunity for them to shine. For new transfer students, the school has a "Little Buddy Program" in which the class teacher arranges for classmates to act as enthusiastic guides, so that every child who steps into the school can feel accepted and valued, and jointly create a caring campus culture. Principal Liang firmly believes that only children who are accepted will have the courage to explore, and only children who are encouraged will have the strength to move forward. This is the most profound meaning of the school motto "Educate yourself and practice hard". With its caring culture and humanistic care, the school has won the "Caring Campus Honor" for seventeen consecutive years and is highly recognized by society and parents.
