Joint-School Cultural and Arts Exchange Tour

Our P.5 and P.6 students recently participated in a joint cultural and arts exchange tour with Po Leung Kuk Chee Jing Yin Primary School. They explored London, prestigious Oxford University, and historic Windsor Castle, and visited Warner Studios to see the making of Harry Potter.

Throughout the tour, students engaged with the rich history and culture of England. By interviewing tourists, they practiced their communication skills and gained diverse perspectives on British culture. This journey not only sparked excitement and curiosity but also deepened their understanding of England’s artistic and historical significance.

5A Chu Wing Sze Emma – Tower Bridge

Tower Bridge has two towers joined by walkways and is one of London’s most famous sights. It’s exciting to see it open for big boats to pass by. The bridge looks especially pretty at night when the lights are on.

5A Li Yu Kiu Bella – Stonehenge

Stonehenge is made of huge stones standing in a circle, and no one really knows who built it. Some people even believe it was made by aliens! I saw sheep eating grass nearby, and they looked so cute walking around the field.

5A Lui Ho Long Jayden – Stonehenge

Stonehenge is full of mystery, with its giant stones standing quietly in a circle. Nobody knows exactly how or why it was built. It was amazing to see such an ancient place in real life.

Bath Abbey is a stunning church with tall windows and beautiful stone walls. I used light and dark colours to show how grand and peaceful the building feels. It was a lovely place to visit and draw.

Tower Bridge is a drawbridge that crosses the River Thames. I like how it opens in the middle to let tall boats pass through. It looks like a castle from far away!

Big Ben is a famous clock tower in London with beautiful Gothic architecture. It’s one of the most well-known landmarks in the city and always stands tall and proud.

Tower Bridge in London is grey and blue. Many cars cross the bridge every day, and it looks very grand with its two towers and suspension design.

5D Cheung Yik Long – Big Ben

Big Ben is tall and rings every hour with a clear “Ding Dang” sound. I really like the sound because it feels so special and classic. The tower looks amazing against the sky.

6B Cheung Sum Wai – The British Museum

The British Museum holds many treasures from around the world. I was amazed by the ancient Egyptian mummies and beautiful Greek statues. It’s a place full of stories and history.

6B Yeung Eason – The National Gallery

The National Gallery in London houses a world-class collection of European paintings from the 13th to the 20th century. Visitors can admire works by Van Gogh, Monet, Da Vinci, and many other legendary artists.

The competition was intense as students carefully designed and constructed their structures for maximum height and stability. Congratulations to all participants for their impressive designs and teamwork!

World Cultures Week

By introducing the festivals in the assembly and following up with hands-on activities, the school helps students develop a deeper appreciation for the diverse cultural celebrations in their community, for example cross-cultural understanding, respect, national identity, unity and global awareness among the students. By collaborating with different departments like Chinese, Music, or P.E. on these cultural celebrations, the school can provide opportunities for students to develop comprehensive skills such as creativity, communication and teamwork, while also promoting a diverse and inclusive campus environment.

Riding mini dragon boat carts, they raced with excitement while answering questions to learn more about this meaningful cultural festival.

Diwali
Diwali, the Festival of Lights, symbolizes the victory of light over darkness. As part of the Diwali celebrations, we have dance performances and a Rangoli drawing activity. Collaborated with a parent volunteer who designed a dance for our students and added meaning to every step in the dance, Principal Chan, teachers and students extremely enjoyed this activity. Also, our Art teacher and student helpers taught students how to design their own Rangoli, a symbol of good luck and prosperity.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving is a cherished holiday where we express gratitude and celebrate with family and friends. Alongside festive meals, we enjoy music and creative activities, such as making maracas with our English and music teachers. This hands-on experience allows us to learn about rhythm while fostering community spirit. Together, we sing songs, creating a joyful atmosphere filled with laughter and connection, making Thanksgiving a memorable celebration of togetherness.

Chinese New Year
Chinese New Year is a vibrant festival that is celebrated with rich traditions and customs. Through teachers' sharing and introduction, we wanted to reinforce students' national identity.
In addition to teaching a brief introduction to Chinese New Year, we aimed to share important values such as unity and respect. To make this experience engaging, we offered a red banner writing activity where students could express their wishes for the Lunar New Year. Students enjoyed the festive spirit while learning the significance of the traditions that bring us together and celebrate our cultural heritage.
