Ho Shun Primary School (Sponsored by Sik Sik Yuen)Joined with Kofeng Middle School and Koh Kwan Nature Education Center cum Planetarium, the "Colorful Carnival for Primary School Students" was held at the venue of Kofeng Middle School. Activities include: booth games, lectures on upgrading to primary school, etc. Parents are welcome to participate with their children. Through a variety of activities, in addition to allowing parents and children to learn more about Credibility, we also took this opportunity to officially announce the full implementation of various plans for Cresting School and Kefeng Middle School to become a more closely connected school to improve the quality of learning and teaching. Principal Zhu Yuanqiu, as an outstanding "hyacinth" (that is, an alumnus and student who graduated from Trust and later went to Kefeng), said: "We hope to bring out the school philosophy of Sik Sik Yuan, promote the establishment of partnerships between schools in the same district, and achieve the concept of "extending the campus" to enrich the use of resources. Today's event can be called the launching ceremony of the cooperation between our three schools and a milestone in the development of the Sik Sik Yuan concept."

Resource sharing enriches learning experience and synergy effects improve teaching quality

This "Colorful Carnival for Primary School Students" is the joint result of the cooperation between the three schools. In the booth games, credible students, freshmen and parents learned about astronomy, English, culture and other knowledge and information through the impressive astronomy booths and the fun "Funny English Fun" and other games. Trusted students also brought booths such as the "AI Martial Arts Campus" device and the "Reaction Light Game", and were given the opportunity to serve as student assistants, introducing games to participants, allowing them to increase their knowledge, confidence and courage. Mr. Yiu Jiadong, Chairman of the Sik Sik Yuen Education Committee, hopes to use this to create a synergistic effect, improve the teaching effectiveness of both parties, and strive for excellence to achieve "credible education of talents, virtues, and proficiency in Chinese and English STEAM". We seek character first, then excellence, so that students can "take off".

Chairman Yao said: "Our goal is to help students lay a good foundation and broaden their horizons so that they can enter any school. In English secondary schools in Tsuen Wan and Kwai Tsing, we have obtained more than half of the places." To achieve this goal, rich educational resources are indispensable. The cooperation between the three schools of Credible, Kefeng and Kefeng has brought about the effect of extending the campus and being able to share learning resources. This means that if you study in Credible, you can enjoy the rich educational resources of Kefeng and Kefeng at the same time, obtain a more diversified learning experience and improve learning efficiency.

At Kefeng, you can study astronomy and geography, learn about natural ecology, and broaden your horizons; you also have the opportunity to take classes in Kefeng and visit Kefeng's facilities, such as laboratories and automatic weather stations set up by Kefeng's climate change research project; and participate in activities organized by Kefeng, such as experiencing kiwi fruit DNA extraction experiments, English activities, Chinese debate competitions, etc., so as to understand the curriculum and life of middle schools, broaden their knowledge, and improve their subject knowledge. Earlier, the teaching subject groups of the two schools, Ke Feng and Ke Feng, jointly launched the "Hyacinth English Review Class", allowing students from primary three and four in Ke Feng and students from Ke Feng to participate. It strengthened the English skills of Ke Feng students and also allowed Ke Feng's students to review their past and learn new things. With the resources brought by the cooperation between the three schools, children can get a comprehensive and profound learning experience.

STEAM booth x lecture, parent-child activities broaden horizons

Chairman Yao said frankly: "Now is not the time to study hard, but to broaden our horizons." Therefore, there will be STEAM projects introduced to parents and students during the event. For example, game booths such as "Our Solar System" can be set up, and lunar devices, rockets, telescopes and other equipment are brought, so that children can learn about astronomy; Lady Ho Tung Hospital operated by Sik Sik Yuen. The Ecological Learning Center also participated in the event, setting up the "Ho Tung Animal Expedition" booth game to allow children to understand Hong Kong's wildlife and learn biological and ecological knowledge. In addition to booth games at the event, the school also arranged lectures on astronomy and programming to allow parents to better understand the needs of education, covering topics such as astronomy, aviation and environmental protection, and to clearly understand the importance of related fields.

New Settings for Innovation and Technology Teaching: Dream Flying Laboratory

The event also showcased the latest STEAM teaching device - "Dream Flying Laboratory", which uses emerging technologies to make children want to learn more. The laboratory is equipped with 4 simulated aircrafts, allowing students to experience the scene of take-off, the shock of landing, take off in the wind and soar into the sky. While launching simulated aircraft, the school also cooperates with interdisciplinary courses to link areas such as flight knowledge and pilot training with different disciplines. For example, it is linked to Chinese and English subjects to educate students on the precise expressions that pilots need to make when receiving instructions, and to apply what they have learned in the laboratory. Principal Zhu hopes that through this innovative teaching model, students can learn with excitement, and even allow children who aspire to become pilots and astronauts to take the first step of their dreams here.

"Learn, play, do" to jointly create future talents

Cultivating students to "learn, play, and do" is the common aspiration of both Credible and Kefeng. Excellent students of Credible can continue their studies at Kefeng Secondary School, which also belongs to Sik Sik Yuen, and receive high-quality education under the same philosophy. Chairman Yao said: "We have the same original intention for the children. We hope that they will be healthy and happy in mind. As long as the students have fun, they will learn happily and will naturally do better." The school believes that "learning" is important, but the healthy development of body, mind and soul is equally important. At the event, the school announced the official launch of the "Health Passport" program, which uses the latest technology to allow students to exercise and collect data to understand whether they are exercising enough so that they can grow healthily. In addition, the school also offers diversified school teams, such as fencing teams, lion dance teams, French classes, etc., to cultivate students' specialties and interests, enrich their campus life, and enable them to learn to "play"; students are also encouraged to participate in community activities, cultivate their ability to "do", know how to give back to the society, and develop good citizenship qualities.

Build a close cooperative relationship to achieve outstanding "Hyacinth"

Principal Zhu is well aware that parents want their children to be admitted to a good middle school. Kefeng Middle School (sponsored by Sik Sik Yuen) is a popular English middle school in the district with parents. Thanks to the close cooperative relationship between the two parties, Principal Zhu can recommend sixth grade students with good grades to attend Kefeng Middle School. They will receive extra points during the admission interview. This means that if children are admitted to a trustworthy school and have excellent academic performance, they will have a greater chance of entering the prestigious Kefeng Middle School in the district.

Vice President Chen Yuming revealed that over the years, many outstanding "hyacinths" have taken advantage of the "wind". In the past, Principal Zhu Yuanqiu cultivated talents, and later "Hyacinth" who studied at the University of Hong Kong received a scholarship from the University of Hong Kong and went to Cambridge to study. There is also "Hyacinth" who won the first place in the class for three consecutive years at Kefeng Secondary School. For "Hyacinth" with outstanding performance, in addition to the opportunity to receive scholarships from Sik Sik Yuen, there is also a special "Hyacinth Scholarship" as a reward.

Establish good language skills and enroll in your favorite English middle school

To enroll in Kefeng Middle School and take off with the "wind", good English skills are indispensable. Therefore, the school attaches great importance to children's language development and carefully equips students with English skills to study in English. Since the primary school level, the school has added English teaching materials to different courses and integrated English into different academic subjects and activities to deepen students' English proficiency, help them better adapt to learning in English, and prepare early for entering English secondary schools in the future. In addition, the school specially hired two foreign English teachers. The two foreign English teachers have a good relationship with the Education Bureau, which allows the school to invite foreigners from the Education Bureau to help organize activities, such as mock interviews, to train students who are about to enter middle school to conduct interviews in English, laying a solid foundation for students to take off in the "wind".

Build a top university in the region and promote the all-round development of students

Looking forward to the future, Credible School has formulated three major development directions: becoming a top school in the region; more than half of all students in the grade entering Band 1 middle schools; and creating conditions for success. On the other hand, it is to create an extended campus. In addition to being trustworthy, popular and respectable, Sik Sik Yuen also has many kindergartens and elderly centers. The school can take students to different kindergartens, primary schools, middle schools and elderly centers to carry out learning activities. Vice Principal Chen said: “The purpose is to broaden students’ horizons and help them develop more comprehensively.”
