  1. welcome you to Kowloon Junior School for the 2017/18 year. What an exciting learning environment for your children to be in. A school where ‘Success for every child is at the heart of what drives the school and motivates staff and the community. KJS is about success in academics, in the arts, in sports, in community involvement, in students' personal lives, and in due course, responsible action in our local, national, and international communities. Our school has a strong and proud history. We intend to build upon this to ensure that our children are part of an exciting and positive future. The International Baccalaureate Primary Year Programme (PYP) provides an immensely strong foundation to set our children up for success not only at KJS but also through to KGV and beyond. We partner with our families to ensure our students have the best possible learning environment to promote well-being, collaboration, and excellence. The learning experiences provided through the PYP program at KJS will assist your child to view mistakes as learning opportunities and encourage creative and innovative thinking in a respectful learning environment. As technology and the world changed in the years ahead, we will quickly realize we are heading into the most exciting and dynamic era in history. At KJS our commitment will be to ensure ‘Success for every child’ means doing all we can to prepare our students to succeed in the future and holding high expectations of ourselves. Our membership in the English Schools Foundation (ESF) ensures we can draw on the collective wisdom of a learning community and create strong and successful pathways of learning for our children from Kindergarten through to their graduation from High School. Our mission is to provide a joyful, supportive, and stimulating learning environment where successful learners achieve through a wide range of learning opportunities and have positive well-being. They will learn with attitude respect for self, others, and the environment and have increasing levels of the agency to take action and make a positive difference in the world. Our children will be internationally-minded lifelong learners. To achieve our vision of ‘Success for Every Child’, staff at KJS will focus on Achievement, Agency, Respect, Opportunity, and Wellbeing (the AAROW’s of Success) supporting and challenging each child to be successful. This means a team at KJS who: Collaborate, families, and the community to achieve Success for Every Child Are supported to be professional and exceptional in their respective roles Regularly monitor and enhance each student’s achievement, agency, and wellbeing Have a passion for providing a broad range of learning opportunities within and beyond the class-based curriculum Model and promote positive wellbeing, growth mindset, and respect for self, others, and the environment Understand and implement a quality PYP framework Are a community of internationally-minded lifelong learners Within our mission statement, the qualities we recognize as key to being ‘internationally minded’ prevail. These qualities are outlined in the IB Learner Profile and are appropriate for all members of our school community. The Learner Profile underpins a curricular framework that provides access to global issues in particular through the concepts of responsibility, perspective, and connection, enabling us to put our vision and mission into action. We are proud to be an international school within a Hong Kong setting and to have the opportunity to draw on the knowledge and experiences of our community and the rich culture of our host country to enhance the learning in school and beyond.
  2. Learning Habitat Kindergarten & Bilingual Nursery (“LHK”) was established to provide high-quality bilingual pre-primary education for children in Hong Kong. Its first campus was opened in Tsing Yi in 2000. Subsequently LHK opened its second and third campuses in Hunghom and Tai Kok Tsui in 2004 and 2005 respectively. In view that quality bilingual pre-primary educational service is much sought-after, our fourth and fifth campuses were opened in Tseung Kwan O and Ma On Shan in 2010 and 2016 respectively. Total student enrolment grew from a very modest number of 4 back in the year 2000 to over 2,000 today across 5 campuses.

  4. KIS’s origin can be traced back to Saturday School, which started in 1960 with just 6 students to provide for the needs of the Korean community in Hong Kong. An increasingly larger community’s needs and support from the Korean government was instrumental in securing and establishing KIS at Sai Wan Ho and today, we are indeed proud to serve KIS which not only cater to the Korean community’s needs but also welcome an international body of students from over 25 countries. Full stream Korean Section and International School have grown over the years, and whilst KIS suffered ups and downs with the fortune of Hong Kong itself, we are now on firm grounds to continue to grow with completion in 2013 of the second extension to existing buildings that will allow us to offer more classrooms and facilities to meet the increasing demand for international education. We believe firmly in providing a secure and stable environment in which students from all backgrounds can grow, work and play together while in Hong Kong so that they can go anywhere in the world with full confidence. We hope that the special environment at KIS, where two curriculums coexist side by side, whilst challenging, will provide extra stimulation and motivation. From its very beginning, KIS was served by Korean community representatives led by the Chairman of the Korean Residents’ Association serving concurrently as Chairman of the Board of Directors of KIS, and this unbroken chain of service has been crucial in supporting KIS over the years to what we are today. We are grateful to the HK government for allowing us to provide international education in HK, as well as the Korean government for their continuing support. We would also like to thank all members of the KIS community, from students, parents, teachers, and staff, as well as leading Korean community representatives for steadfast support over the years, and look forward to working with all for many more years to come. Korean International School was granted land at Sai Wan Ho campus in 1992 and was incorporated in 1993. Original stakeholders included representatives from the Korean community and the Korean Consulate, who elected the Board of Directors to oversee the welfare of the school. The Board of Directors was given the power to appoint Committees to manage the school and various Committees were formed and dismantled as the school saw the completion of the building of the first phase and second phase. The most recent such committees are the Building Committee to oversee the extension phase of facilities due for completion by summer of 2013, and the Fundraising Committee. At KIS, two schools are running two separate curriculums: the Korean Section following the Korean curriculum set by the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Korea, with the Principal appointed by the Ministry, and the International Section which follows Cambridge International Program, with internationally appointed Principal and teaching staff. Both schools are open to all applicants residing in HK. Given this duality, the Board appointed a Supervisor to head up the Management Committee whose members include representatives from the Korean community, Principals of both sections, PTA representatives from both sections, Chief Operating Officer representing school administration, and a representative from the Korean Consulate General. Korean International School started in 1988 with the establishment of Korean School, officially recognized and supported by the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Korea to provide continuing education based on Korean curriculum for Korean students in HK. To meet increasing demand, the Korean community represented by the Korean Residents’ Association of HK together with the then Korean Consul General, approached the HK government to grant a permanent facility, the success of which saw construction at Sai Wan Ho campus starting in 1992 with Korean International School being established in 1993. First classes moved in in 1994. View full school

  8. Over at the secondary school, S4 students are to be commended for their performance in the IGCSE examinations, with two-thirds of the grades achieved being distinctions. Welcome back to SISHK: 2016/17 has been the busiest year with the celebrations for our school’s anniversary. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank all our parents and community for your enthusiastic participation in all the events and for making the year such a memorable one! Our school year ended with some very good news from our students. In July, five of our Primary Two students won one bronze and four gold medals when they represented Hong Kong in the World Maths Invitational in Vietnam. Our DP students also performed very well in their Diploma examinations, with an average of 37 points for the IB Diploma and more than 35% achieved 40 points and above. We are very proud of our graduates as they start the next phase of their learning journey in universities all over the world including Oxford (UK), Cambridge (UK), Northeastern (USA), Berklee (USA), and British Columbia (Canada). One-fifth of the cohort will be matriculating to one of the Hong Kong universities. Some students will be returning to Singapore to pursue their degree studies at the National University of Singapore or Nanyang Technological University while others will be starting National Service back in Singapore. The interests of this cohort reflect the diversity of talents among our students, courses they will be studying range from Media Studies, Music, Law, Medicine, Physics, English, Chemical Engineering, Business to Accountancy, and others. As a whole, the academic achievements of our students are laudable. SISHK prides itself on our academic rigor and our student body ranges widely in terms of academic inclination, creative aptitude, language proficiency, physical capability as we are a non-selective school. In addition to academic excellence, we support our students to discover and pursue their passions and talents and equip them with the tools to face future challenges and thrive in an ever-changing world.| Our team has grown with more teachers joining us from around the world and new heads joining the management team to lead the school forward. In the next few months, we will be upgrading the swimming pool’s water filtration system and constructing a canopy over the basketball courts at the Nam Long Shan campus. Alternative PE lessons are in place during this period and we will have another all-weather outdoor area for the children to enjoy after the works are completed. We will also be further refining our teaching and learning strategies as well as fine-tuning the range of activities and events to further enrich our students’ learning experiences. The team and I are all looking forward to another exciting year ahead, partnering with you to create more learning opportunities and experiences for your children. To provide a conducive environment for a future-oriented, holistic education, anchored in a rigorous bilingual academic program, for children of all nationalities. We nurture students to be independent life-long learners imbued with sound moral values who are respectful and responsible, and who rise to the challenges of life creatively and enthusiastically in an ever-changing world. We respect the dignity and worth of all the students under our care. We believe that all students can be nurtured to achieve their full potential within a school environment that is both caring and challenging. We expect all students to be respectful, responsible, and to rise to the challenges of life. View full school

  10. Our school was first established at a site in Sai Ying Poon through the generosity of the Kadoorie Family in the 1890s. The Hong Kong Government assumed the school management in 1916 and the school later moved to its old site at Eastern Hospital Road. For many years, it was operated as a primary school until the 1960s with the introduction of secondary classes. It has remained a government co-educational secondary school ever since. At the beginning of the new millennium, the school has moved into its present site, a new and very well facilitated school building with the latest modern design, progressing onwards with strength and vitality into a new era ahead. Appreciating the cultural diversity of the students and reflecting on the changing demands of the modern world, the school aims at the holistic development of all students to enable them to become lifelong learners and valuable members of the local and global community. Our school was built according to the most the modern year 2000 (Y2K) design.

As one of the oldest schools in Hong Kong, we cherish an unbroken tradition of academic, aesthetic, physical, and musical excellence and a reputation for being at the forefront of educational developments. Much as we value scholarship and intellectual development, we stress even more on values and attitudes and laud integrity and modesty. Learning at SPCC is not confined to the classroom. With an extensive array of experiential learning and exchange programs, our students are exposed to different cultures and learn from new perspectives. We seek to provide the best opportunities to groom them into global citizens who would serve the public good and lead a responsible and magnificent life. Our graduates, being leaders in their respective professions, have long been recognized for the invaluable contributions they made to society over the years. Education is our passport to the future. I look forward to welcoming you to the SPCC family and taking your child on the wonderful journey of holistic, enlightening, and challenging education. In the spirit of " Faith, Hope, and Love ", to nurture our students as future leaders by instilling in them a culture of excellence, high moral values, an altruistic spirit, a passion for lifelong learning, and a global perspective. We stress integrity, scholarship and excellence, and also modesty and simplicity of life. We are dedicated to making the Schools a loving and caring community where students from different social backgrounds can interact, learn and pursue academic excellence together so that they may lead responsible and fulfilling lives. SPCC offers the curricula of the local Diploma of Secondary Education (DSE) and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) in parallel. We believe the provision of the dual curricula enables us to better cater to our diverse student body, which encompasses a broad array of talents and interests and different learning styles. We are a school under the Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui and students are given care and guidance by the Christian faith and its emphasis on the value of the individual. Christian teachers and pastors provide students spiritual care and guidance. The discipline panel, the counseling group, careers staff and school social workers work closely to offer students counseling services and organize related activities for them. Civic and moral education programs are held regularly at school to inculcate in each student a sense of self-worth, social responsibility, and cultural and civic awareness.
  16. The School aims to provide a seamless bilingual education for girls in a happy and motivating learning environment so that they will learn to embrace the Paulinian heritage of truth, beauty, goodness, nobility, and honor. The school aims at providing an all-round education, based on Christian values, that enhances the quality of life, both spiritually and materially, for our Paulinians so that they can contribute positively to their home, profession, and society with charity, conscience, confidence, courage, creativity, competence and commitment. St. Paul's Convent School (SPCS), a Catholic secondary school for girls from the age of eleven to eighteen, is sponsored and administered by the Sisters of St. Paul de Chartres, an international congregation founded in France with a history of three hundred years of educational excellence. SPCS, being one of the oldest Grant-in-aid Schools in Hong Kong, was founded in 1854. It was formerly called French Convent School and even up to the present day, there is still several non-Chinese speaking students. The school moved to its present site in 1914 and the present building was completed in 1981. The school was renamed St. Paul's Convent School in 1955. A Sesquicentennial Block of seven stories was added to the campus to celebrate its 150 years of educational excellence. Since September 2004, SPCS has changed its status from Grant-in-aid School to Direct Subsidy Scheme (DSS). This change has reaped many benefits and flexibility that enhance the school's unique vision and mission of developing all-around educational excellence that is being recognized by all renowned institutions, both locally and internationally. The existing values of excellence and efficiency will be strengthened to provide an education of world-class standards for our Paulicians. Enrolment in the school implies the student’s willingness and determination to obey school authorities and abide by all the school regulations. The school reserves the right to require the withdrawal of those students whose behavior is not in accord with its ideals and standards of conduct. The school considers that it is a serious offense to recruit students for outside activities or organizations without authorization from the school. View full school

  22. The Child Development Centre (CDC) uniquely provides support to the widest spectrum of Special Educational Needs (SEN) issues in English and Chinese in Hong Kong. Over the past 40 years, we have been delivering a full range of early educational programs, assessments, and therapies. We were also the first center to integrate typical and children with SEN into group sessions. Our children include those with learning difficulties, developmental delay, autism, Down’s syndrome, and physical disabilities. The Centre informally began in 1976 under the guidance of Mrs. Sarah Roe, an occupational therapist. You may have heard of Mrs. Roe since the only English language special school in Hong Kong is named after her. Mrs. Roe began organizing a group in her apartment for English-speaking children with learning difficulties. The Matilda International Hospital was extremely supportive and offered available hospital space that could be used for a more formal playgroup. With the generous support of sponsors and parents, combined with a firm commitment from the Matilda Hospital, a purpose-built facility was opened on the grounds of the hospital in 1981 by Mrs. Anne Marden.

  24. Welcome to Victoria (South Horizons) International Nursery and Kindergarten. Every day we have over 400 eager students coming into our school which is located in the Southern District of Hong Kong Island. Our campus offers a Trilingual program for 2 to 6-year-olds from Pre-Nursery to Upper Class (K3), and a Bilingual program starting from 3 to 6 years old from Nursery Class (K1) to Upper Class (K3). We provide an inquiry and literacy-based curriculum our teachers have trained annually in the International Baccalaureate Primary Years Programme (IB PYP) and the Columbia University Teacher's College Reading and Writing Project (TCRWP). As you walk down the steps to our kindergarten, you will likely be welcomed by ships sailing by. The beautiful sea view is a warm and inviting environment for the children to come to school every day. From many of the different classroom windows, you can see the clear blue sea and boats passing by. There are times when you can even hear the honking of the horns from the ships. Being surrounded by nature and gardens offers the children a breath of fresh air from the hustle and bustle of the city. From the moment that you walk into the lobby of our campus, you will see two corridors that lead the kindergarten into different engaging learning areas intended to promote creativity and curiosity. When you look into our classrooms, you will see an aesthetically pleasing environment that encourages the children to explore various learning centers related to their current units of inquiry. The large learning areas allow the children to move around with ease, engage in interactive lessons, and also allow enough space for quiet activities, small group activities, and individualized learning. Not only are the children able to learn from the internal school community, but they are also able to learn from the close-knit extended community of South Horizons. Our neighborhood allows the children to have real-life experiences that build on the classroom learning and improve the students' essential literacy, research, and problem-solving skills. There are many opportunities for parents to join in on class activities and field trips to promote collaboration between home and school, as many of our students and their families also live in South Horizons. We believe that our learning community not only consists of the school but also the home community in providing a first-class education for everyone. Located conveniently in the Southern District, there is an abundance of transportation to choose from that gets you to our campus. There are many buses to and from Central, Causeway Bay, and even Pok Fu Lam. With the new South Island Line of the MTR, it is even quicker to get to South Horizons from Admiralty. Whether you take the bus or train, when you cross over the Ap Lei Chau Bridge, you will get a glimpse of the incredible view that is on the South Island. We strive to deliver a balanced curriculum with hands-on, inquiry-based learning. Our campus has been an authorized IB World School since April 2015, and we have been a partner school of Columbia University’s Teacher’s College Reading and Writing Project since September the same year. These programs allow the children to be inquirers and take ownership of their learning, as well as develop their thinking skills to apply strategies that will build their confidence as learners.
