dev_of_generic_skillsIn order to develop students' nine generic skills - communication, collaboration, numeracy, critical thinking, study, problem-solving, information technology, creativity and self-management, a school-based curriculum is designed and the project learning skills are taught according to students' needs and abilities.
cultivation_of_proper_values_attitudes_and_behavioursOur goal is to foster students' whole-person development and establish their Christian values with the implementation of our school's pastoral movements. We help students demonstrate their positive values and attitudes towards life so as to strengthen their resilience. Students should develop the attitude of being caring, helpful and responsible. Students should learn to show their respect for and acceptance of others from a young age. They should also learn to accept individual differences, establish peaceful and friendly relationships, and be thankful so as to foster harmony in society.
