We’ve had a fantastic Summer this year with lots of hard work and of course, lots of fun. One of the greatest parts of our Summer is the extensive list of activities we’ve held.

However much we’d like to write about each one, we instead have photos available to view on our Flickr and Facebook.

Interactive Science Park

Mixing up our provided outdoor activities and events make us realise what our students enjoy the most. We discover their passions, feel their excitement and in turn, it helps us understand how to teach them. Whether it is an educational tour guided by experts or an activity that allows students to purely have fun, we like to see the personal building of confidence, their curiosity in new surroundings and courage to try new things.

For our Summer study tour, we took our students to Seoul!

Went to Kai Ping and Macau for an exchange program.

And our other activities included the very much loved war game, lots of badminton, table tennis, bowling, iceskating and fencing.

Please see our Flickr and Facebook for more.

We hope you can join us for 2011-2012.
