Brand-new international-class school building equipped with high-quality software and hardware to create a rich English learning experience

TWGHs Tsoi Wing Sing Primary School moved to a new campus in Shui Chuen O, Sha Tin in January, covering an area of ​​9,000 square meters. Students can have more room for development in their studies. Principal Liang Dunyu hopes that by building a new international-class school building, making good use of the vast space of the campus, and supplementing it with a complete range of diverse English teaching software, we can continue to provide students with the best quality English learning environment and achieve the teaching vision of "Tomorrow's leaders, today's leaders".

School sponsoring groups fully support and provide complete supporting facilities

Principal Liang is very grateful for the full support of the school sponsoring organization Tung Wah Group of Hospitals, which has invested tens of millions on the campus. Not only has a magnificent new school building been built, but the supporting facilities of the new school building have been completely upgraded, allowing students to enjoy a rich English learning experience with complete software and hardware. When students can master English, they can communicate with people from all over the world and learn other cultures and knowledge.

Principal Liang added: "The library of the new school building has a special interactive reading space where students can engage in individual or group activities in a comfortable environment to increase their interest in reading English books." The school also uses Pinyin classes to allow junior primary school students to be exposed to new English words first, creating a good reading atmosphere so that students can learn to appreciate different literary works and fall in love with reading.

Immersive learning courses with English elements

"Tomorrow's leaders, today's leaders" is the school's educational vision. Principal Liang pointed out that the qualities of future leaders include having a broad vision and the ability to adapt to changes in the world. Therefore, the entire school works together to create a rich English learning environment and arranges immersive English learning courses to equip students with English skills that are in line with the world. In addition to the main English subject, English will also be used as an auxiliary teaching method for mathematics and science subjects. English elements will also be gradually added to visual arts, music and physical education classes. For example, football is taught by foreign teachers. The purpose is to allow students to communicate and get along with people of different nationalities in a strong English atmosphere, strengthen their English expression skills, and become accustomed to learning and using English.

In addition, the school has also designed many special courses in the form of special topics. For example, students are encouraged to return to school after visiting the school to report the collected information in written and oral forms to train their writing and speaking skills. Students can also practice English through teaching activities such as story making, games, music, and dance, and explore their personal learning interests, thereby promoting English learning and building self-confidence. The school will also set up an "English Day" to encourage students to communicate with teachers in English. During lunch breaks, they can go to the playground to play games with English teachers to learn and use English.

Promote drama education and induce interest in learning

Entering the globalized world, students must equip themselves not only to communicate flexibly in English, but also to develop innovative thinking and absorb knowledge, which will facilitate their transition to English secondary schools and lay a solid foundation for entering university. The teaching team not only teaches students English knowledge, but also strives to cultivate their love for English. To this end, it provides a complete and coherent course structure aimed at developing students' reading and writing skills. The school encourages students to express their imagination and creativity in different media. They will first learn vocabulary, grammar, punctuation, string characters and explore language structures from poetry and drama works, and then apply the knowledge they have learned in writing to express their emotions and skillfully "write my heart with my hand" in English.

Drama education is an important project in the school's English curriculum. It serves as a platform for students to explore, express and perform while practicing their English. Each first-grade student can participate in at least six drama activities organized by experts. Through games and performances, they can find their personal and learning interests and build confidence. Even if they use English in public in the future, they will feel comfortable and more courageous to express their ideas in English.

Implement experiential travel courses to broaden horizons

The school is also planning to implement experiential travel courses, allowing students to personally plan itineraries and activities related to learning objectives, encouraging them to actively explore, observe, experience and learn new knowledge and skills from travel. Before the epidemic, the school held joint-school exchange activities based on different themes every year, allowing students to communicate and understand each other with students from all over the world, experience different customs, culture and life, look at the world, and enrich learning experiences, so as to learn and use English from experience. The school also has different scholarships and funding programs to allow students to participate in a variety of competitions and activities to enrich their learning experience, broaden their horizons, and improve their English skills.

Designing the "Star Rising Plan" to help new students connect

In order to allow primary school freshmen to adapt to primary school English learning, the school attaches great importance to the adaptability of freshmen to the new school environment, so this year it specially held the "Star Rising Plan" English bridging course. Amid the epidemic, the course will be held in the form of Zoom, with the theme centered on English writing. It is divided into three stages. The course will be taught by foreign teachers. Through activities such as reading, board games and making magnetic cars, students can get used to the English teaching environment with laughter.

The number of students admitted increases and the quality of teaching is highly recognized

Principal Liang concluded: "We will further integrate the English language policy into the school policy to strengthen the English learning atmosphere in the whole school." The school's teaching quality and dedication have been well received by parents. Principal Liang said with a smile that many students have chosen this school as their first choice, and the number of students admitted has increased several times. The results are encouraging, and it also proves that the school's efforts in English teaching have not been in vain.
