Report highlights

  • A National Security Education team coordinates school-wide programmes including Chinese Culture Day and Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations.
  • Major concern: nurturing world citizens with respect for diversity and international outlook – achieved through foreign language exposure, exchanges with HKIS, and Watoto cultural events.
  • APASO survey shows over 90% of students are willing to befriend people of different ethnicities and respect different cultures.
  • The 'Reading Rainbow Project' has added books on national culture and global issues, encouraging diverse reading and sharing.
  • Three major concerns for 2024-25: global citizenship, optimising assessment for diversity, and inspiring potentials for a healthy outlook.
  • The school operates a full-day system and has an Incorporated Management Committee including parent and alumni managers.

School values

  • Christian holistic education: balanced development in spiritual, moral, intellectual, physical, social, and aesthetic aspects
  • Motto: 'Establish oneself and others; renew day by day' – continuous improvement and service
  • Respect for multiculturalism: accepting different races, nationalities, and perspectives
  • National identity: understanding the nation, law-abiding and patriotic
  • Active learning and independent inquiry: promoting reading, current affairs discussion, and cross-cultural exchange

Family action plan

  • Read picture books or children's stories about Chinese history and culture with your child, discussing the meaning of the national flag and anthem.
  • Watch National Security Education Day specials or children's picture books together to build basic national security awareness.
  • Introduce elements from different cultures at home (food, music, festivals) and discuss the importance of respecting differences.
  • Set aside 15 minutes daily for parent-child reading, covering both national culture and global issues to cultivate awareness of current affairs.
  • Encourage your child to learn simple foreign phrases (e.g., Japanese or French greetings) to spark interest in languages.
  • Participate in community or school Chinese traditional craft workshops (calligraphy, paper-cutting) to experience Chinese culture.
  • Encourage your child to play with children from diverse backgrounds, fostering acceptance and sharing.

Parent interview prep

  • Understand the school's Christian foundation and consider how your family aligns with holistic education values (e.g., character building, service spirit).
  • Be ready to discuss your child's reading habits: what book did they read recently? Which character did they like and why?
  • Share concrete examples of how your family teaches respect for others, rule-following, and responsibility.
  • Express appreciation for the school's balanced focus on international perspective and national education, citing home practices (e.g., celebrating traditional festivals, discussing current events).
  • Demonstrate understanding of the school motto 'Establish oneself and others; renew day by day' and how your child embodies progress and service.

Child practice

  • Practice self-introduction: name, age, favourite subject or activity – speak clearly and politely.
  • Prepare to talk about a book they recently read, briefly explaining the content and why they liked it.
  • Know the name and colours of the Chinese national flag, and proper behaviour during flag-raising.
  • Learn a simple self-introduction in Putonghua or name a traditional Chinese festival (e.g., Mid-Autumn Festival, Chinese New Year).
  • Role-play group activities: taking turns to speak, listening to others, cooperating on simple tasks (e.g., puzzles or building blocks).
  • Use polite words like 'please', 'thank you', 'sorry' to demonstrate basic manners.

Interview prep signals

  • The school may use group games or collaborative tasks to observe social skills and sharing attitude.
  • Children may be asked about their curiosity towards different countries or cultures, e.g., 'Which country would you like to visit and why?'
  • Storytelling or picture-based questions might assess understanding of respect, friendship, or national identity.
  • Some parts may be conducted in Putonghua, such as simple Q&A or singing a Putonghua nursery rhyme.
  • Parent interviews or questionnaires may focus on family education philosophy and alignment with the school's major concerns.
  • The school values parent-child reading, so parents may be asked about family reading habits and how they guide children to care about the world.

Parent FAQ

Does my child need to speak Putonghua during the interview?

The school uses Chinese (including Putonghua) and English for instruction, so some interview segments may involve simple Putonghua Q&A, such as self-introduction or naming a festival. It's advisable to practise basic conversations in Putonghua at home and encourage your child to respond confidently – even if pronunciation isn't perfect, the key is to show politeness and confidence.

How does the school assess a child's multicultural awareness?

According to the school's reports, the APASO survey measures students' openness to different ethnicities. Interviews may include questions or scenarios (e.g., 'What would you do if a new classmate from another country came?') to gauge the child's attitudes and values. Parents can support this by discussing diversity and reading books about different cultures at home.
