Academics and moral character go hand in hand, cultivating a positive and enterprising attitude

San Wui Commercial Society SchoolAdhering to the spirit of the school motto of "Being sincere and benevolent, choosing and doing good" and taking "teaching every student well" as its educational mission, the school firmly believes that every student has different talents and can give full play to their abilities in their respective fields. Therefore, the school actively designs all-round learning activities, optimizes school-based curriculum, encourages students to learn from practice, and trains their thinking, communication and analysis skills to integrate knowledge. Principal Hu Lifeng and his teaching team also attach great importance to the character development of students in the learning process, establish positive values ​​​​to treat others, and become the pillars of future society.

Develop STEAM education and cultivate young scientists

The school vigorously develops school-based STEAM education, promotes interdisciplinary learning, and infiltrates STEAM learning elements inside and outside the classroom to cultivate students' creative thinking and enhance their interest in learning science and technology. The teaching team promotes STEAM education in multiple areas and encourages students to practice and apply knowledge and technology. Principal Hu pointed out: “In the school-based curriculum, the school focuses on mathematics, general knowledge and computer subjects to help students build STEAM literacy; we also provide all-round learning activities and hold STEAM learning days, such as ‘LEGO STEAM DAY’ in junior primary schools and ‘STEAM DAY’ in upper primary schools, allowing students to combine scientific concepts with engineering construction to produce different mechanical equipment; in addition, the school has also set up STEAM in different corners of the campus. Learning corners, such as programming corner, solid corner, engineering corner, microscopy corner and hydroponic corner, create a "STEAM Everywhere" learning atmosphere. "The school breaks through the space limitations of teaching with "STEAM Everywhere", which not only allows students to gain access to more STEAM knowledge in life, but also arouses their independent learning motivation, cultivates "little scientists", and lays a solid foundation for becoming scientific and innovative talents in the future.

Reading integrated with school-based curriculum to promote English drama education

The school focuses on students’ absorption and internalization of knowledge and cultivates them to become “lifelong learners”. Therefore, the teaching team deliberately enhances the diversity of learning so that students can receive the most appropriate support. In order to optimize the teaching effectiveness of the English subject, the school continues to promote the development of school-based courses and hires two additional foreign English teachers at its own expense to provide all classes with classes led by foreign teachers three days a week. It also cooperates with local teachers and teaching assistants to teach collaboratively, giving students more opportunities to be exposed to and use English. In addition, reading is the key to unlocking knowledge. In terms of classroom arrangement, the English subject team will add one English class per week to junior primary schools to coordinate with the English story reading course. Foreign teachers will share books with students through iPads and divide them into A to Z to distinguish the depth of the content, so that students can learn English from shallow to deep and gradually improve their reading and writing skills.

Principal Hu added: "Students learn English not only to cope with courses or exams, but more importantly, to practice it in life so that they can still communicate confidently even when meeting foreigners. Therefore, the school holds English drama activities every year to create a strong English context so that children can learn English happily and Use English in vivid situations. Through stage performances, students can not only improve their self-confidence and dare to express themselves in front of others, but also strengthen their English expression skills. At the same time, tutors will lead students to study scripts, which will deepen their creative thinking and literary and artistic vision. 4C capabilities, including Cooperation, Communication, Creativity and Caring, promote whole-person development.”

Optimize campus facilities and cultivate students with love

In order to enrich students' learning experience, the school has continuously optimized campus facilities in recent years and has set up a rock climbing wall in the auditorium. Teachers lead students to perform rock climbing activities in a safe environment. This not only exercises students' physical fitness, but also cultivates perseverance and enhances positive emotional energy and resilience. In addition, a large TV curtain wall has been installed in the auditorium to enhance the visual effect of the stage, allowing students to be more immersed in expressing themselves on the stage. The school cares about the different learning needs of students and nurtures every child with love. Therefore, students are often praised by guests and neighbors for being polite and respectful to their teachers. The school's excellent teaching atmosphere has been recognized by the outside world by repeatedly receiving the "Care Campus Award" from the Christian Service.

Pay attention to the development of moral education and jointly build a caring campus

In addition to subject knowledge, the school also attaches great importance to the moral development of students, cultivating a spirit of unremitting learning, and establishing good character and life values. Before each new student enrolls, the school social worker will understand and evaluate his or her character strengths and learning abilities to provide appropriate support and counseling. Principal Hu said: "The whole school works together to promote positive education and establish a campus culture of 'caring and inclusiveness' so that students can learn and grow in a friendly and inclusive environment. In order to give children recognition and encouragement, we also use 'magnet badges' to reward virtues and praise them." Promote students' good behavior and character. At the same time, the school arranges for seniors to learn to take care of junior primary students during recess to establish a caring spirit. In terms of home-school cooperation, we also hold regular lectures and implement the "Rising Star Daren" moral education award program to jointly promote positive education."
