language_policyTo enrich the English learning environment, the School will make the best use of the flexibility of the fine-tuning policy of the MOI to offer school-based and enhancement curricula (English for Life) using English as the MOI in line with the ability and aptitude of the students in the daily life context with a view to laying a sound foundation for students to use English as a medium for life-long learning. Other supporting measures for promoting "bi-literacy and tri-lingualism" include English and Putonghua announcements in morning assemblies, English lunch activities, language remedial and enhancement classes, reading programmes, joining the Hong Kong Schools Speech Festival and the online Book Recommendation Scheme.

oa_orientation_activities_n_healthy_lifeTo help Form One students adapt to secondary school life as quickly as possible, our school has launched the "Ching Chung Summer" Orientation Programme. Firstly, a Form One Orientation Camp is held in mid-July. Through a variety of team-building activities and interest classes, students are encouraged to build harmonious friendships and enhance communication and collaboration with their peers. In addition, from mid-July to mid-August, the school organises a range of summer interest classes, including handball, basketball, dance, and handicrafts. These activities allow Form One students to make good use of their summer holidays, explore their interests, and foster personal growth. In late August, the school hosts a Parent Information Day and the "Form One Curriculum Taster" Bridging Programme. Through computer presentations, talks, games, campus tours, sports activities, and group discussions — all led by teachers and senior students — new students gain a deeper understanding of the school environment, systems, and academic expectations, helping them integrate smoothly into the Ching Chung Secondary School family.

Furthermore, we regularly encourage students to recycle waste paper, aluminum cans, and plastic bottles. Environmental education is also integrated into the "Life Start-Up Program", allowing students to gain an in-depth understanding of environmental pollution through hands-on experiences, and to foster a strong sense of responsibility and awareness for sustainable development.
