SING YIN SECONDARY SCHOOL

Sing Yin Secondary School was founded at 11, On Tin Street, Lam Tin in September 1970 under the sponsorship of the Divine Word Missionaries. It was built and administered by Rev. Patrick Canavan who was its principal and supervisor for more than twenty years. Under Fr. Canavan’s able leadership, Sing Yin quickly developed into a top quality school where students can receive a good, all-round education. On 1 September 2011, it moved to 38 New Clear Water Bay Road.

The Divine Word Missionaries, the sponsoring body of Sing Yin Secondary School, is an international Catholic society of priests and brothers. It was founded by a German priest, Fr. Arnold Janssen, in 1875 and China was the first mission of this society. In 1879, Fr. Joseph Freinademetz boarded a ship to Hong Kong and started his missionary work here. Fr. Arnold Janssen and Fr. Joseph Freinademetz were canonized on 5 October 2003 by Pope John Paul II. The Divine Word Missionaries has grown steadily and there are now over 7,000 priests and brothers working in more than 70 countries around the world.

Sing Yin Secondary School gets its name from the Bible. The Gospel of John opens with the words “In the beginning was the Word”. This “Word” refers to the Son of God who became man in the person of Jesus Christ. For Christian, He is the Way, the Truth and the Life.

Sing Yin is a Catholic school and, following the teaching of Jesus, special emphasis is given to moral education and community service. In this way, Sing Yin aims to give its students the best possible set of values by which to live a meaningful life and, at the same time, to become true pillars of society.

聖言中學簡介

聖言中學於一九七零年九月於藍田安田街十一號開校，為聖言會主辦的天主教學校。聖言中學是由甘百德神父籌辦和監建的，甘神父其後更出任本校校長及校監二十多年。在他的英明領導下，聖言中學迅速發展為一所優質學校，為學生提供良好、整全的教育。本校於二零一一年九月一日遷到新清水灣道三十八號現址。

聖言會乃一個世界性的天主教修會團體。它在一八七五年由德國神父楊生安諾所創立，並先在中國從事傳道工作。一八七九年福若瑟神父來到香港開始傳教。二零零三年十月五日前任教宗若望保祿二世為聖楊生神父及聖福若瑟神父封聖。聖言會穩健地發展，現今已有七千名以上的神父及修士在七十多個國家服務。

「聖言」這個名字是源自若望福音第一章「在起初已有聖言」。「聖言」是指天主聖子降生成人，就是耶穌基督。為基督徒來說，祂就是道路、真理、生命。作為一所天主教學校，聖言中學遵從耶穌的教導，特別注重道德教育及社區服務。本校辦學的目標，正在於扶助學生確立一套圓滿的價值觀，以活得富有意義，並且成為社會的真正棟樑。

Mission Statement “I have come so that they may have life and have it to the full” John 10:10

Sing Yin Secondary School, which has its origin in the mission of the Church, has as its fundamental goal the complete and integral human development of each student: mind and spirit, body and emotion (as understood in the light of John 10:10)

Sing Yin is committed to helping students to live a “full life” by: - promoting the spiritual and moral, intellectual and emotional, cultural, social and physical development of the students - preparing our students for the challenges and responsibilities of adult life - guiding our students, in the spirit of our school motto “克明峻德”, to discover Christian values and beliefs, and the meaning of life

辦學宗旨「我來為使人得到生命，且獲得更豐富的生命。」若 10:10

聖言中學的辦學宗旨，源於天主教會的使命，以「誘導每一名學生發展整全的人格 – –––– 即若望福音（10:10）所啟示的心與靈、身與情合一」為基本的辦學目標。

聖言中學正是積極推行下列的措施來扶助學生活出豐富的生命：（1）開拓學生靈性的、道德的、知識的、情意的、文化的、社會的、體格的領域；（2）培養學生應付日後成人生活的挑戰和責任；（3）啟引學生在校訓“克明峻德”的精神下，體現基督徒的價值觀與信念，以及生命的意義。

VISION To provide one of the best educations in the world with a global perspective for boys in the local community.

願景本校著力為本社區的男孩提供一個有國際視野、世界一流的教育。

School Goals

Our goal is to prepare students to live a healthy, affluent and meaningful life. More specifically, we aim:

1. To help students to appreciate life and to develop a commitment to sustain all lives, especially human life forever. Thus environmental education should be a core goal of our education.

2. To help students consolidate the values and attitudes necessary for the development of moral character, such as: Faith, Hope, Love, Appreciation, Respect, Responsibility, Peace, Honesty, Justice, Self-discipline, Service, Co-operation, Simplicity, Courage, Perseverance, Sincerity, Tolerance, Self-Restraint and Delayed Gratification on which the sustainable development of the human race are based. These values are to be interpreted in the light of the Bible and good, traditional Chinese culture.

3. To strive to develop in our students the ability to think, judge, and act objectively and independently - that is, to be wise and rational. Critical thinking and debating skills are important, but students must know the shortcomings of these skills. On the other hand, we need to ensure that our students are sympathetic and be able to express their feelings in proper ways.

4. To enable our students to solve the problems they will face in life and societal problems, taking into consideration the pros and cons of different solutions and not be biased by advocacy opinions and other factors. The solutions adopted should be effective, efficient, fair and just.

5. To ensure that our students strive for a balance between their rights and responsibilities.

6. To guide the students towards finding meaning and purpose in their lives through an awareness of the existence of God and their obligation to serve God by developing their aptitudes in order to serve not just themselves but also to serve their fellow humans as members of God's great human family.

7. To provide for the full and proper formation of Catholic students.

8. To provide non-Christians with the opportunity of knowing about the life and teaching of Christ and to provide religious instruction for any non-Christian who freely desires it.

9. To promote respect for lawful government and its representatives, the observance of just laws, and a search for the common good which includes civic values such as freedom, social justice, and the dignity of work. Related activities should be appropriate to the developmental stages of students.

10. To vigorously promote voluntary service by the students both in and out of school.

11. To foster in our students a reverence for life in all its stages, an understanding of the significance of family life for the individual and for society, and the conditions conducive to a good family life. They should embrace filial duty, love their wives and care for their off springs.

12. To enable students to live a physically and psychologically healthy life now and after graduation.

13. To develop a challenging and comprehensive curriculum which will match the students interests and abilities and which will provide them with the knowledge, skills and attitudes which will enable them to have a better understanding of the world, become financially independent and capable of playing a positive role in the social and economic development of the community.

14. To help the students reach a good standard in both written Chinese and English, and to communicate fluently in Cantonese, Mandarin and English.

15. To provide the students with a basic knowledge of the society they live in, with special emphasis on the history and geography of China, and to cultivate in them a love of our Mother Country and Mother Earth.

16. To provide a chance for students to develop a basic appreciation of Art, Music and Chinese Literature and to foster interest in their Chinese cultural heritage.

17. To enable the students to understand the methods of Science, the influence of Science on human life, the main scientific facts, and the relationship of science to the Christian religion. We hold that science and religion are complementary rather than contradictory.

18. To develop leadership, career aspiration and personal interests of the students through extra-curricular activities.

19. To provide for the Pastoral Care of the Students with the assistance of the Social Worker and an effective Guidance Department.

20. To provide effective lines of communication among the administration, the staff, the parents, the students and the local community.

21. In the spirit of the Gospel to promote a pleasant, caring, family atmosphere within the school community which includes the Staff, the Students and the School administrators.

Most of these goals are further developed into two layers of sub-goals. At the fundamental layer, the spiritual, moral, cognitive, physical, social and aesthetic goals are of equal importance. At the higher layer, spiritual and moral goals come first, followed by cognitive goals. The social, physical and aesthetic sub-goals should be prioritized on an individual basis.

Report on School Level Projects

There were six school level projects for the 2017-2018 school year. All projects were successfully completed.

1. To cultivate care and love One of our school goals is to help students develop good moral values for the development of moral character. One of these is caring and love. The Guidance Department organized various programmes to foster an attitude in our students to love others. Some visits to the homes for the elderly were carried out in December 2017 and May 2018. The students, principal and teachers visited them, chatted with them and gave them gifts. In April and July 2018, the Sing Yin Pioneers paid a visit to patients with Down Syndrome, creating an atmosphere of happiness and love in the centre. The Moral and Civic Education Department organized the ‘Catholic Week’ in March 2018 with the theme of ‘love and care’. The programmes included a famine lunch, a visit to the elderly, a film show and “Stations of the Cross” activity. Furthermore, all F.5 students had a chance to think about the problem of poverty in Hong Kong through a multimedia performance, ‘My-luxurious-50-sqft-life’, and they cooked with the elderly in our Home Management Room. Our F.1 students took part in the ‘Inspired Programme – Spiritual Education’ organized by the Chinese University of Hong Kong to learn about resilience and mindfulness for better emotional control. The Environmental Education Committee organized various programmes including ‘Natural Trail Walk’, ’Green Thursday’ and other green activities in collaboration with other departments and interest clubs. To show care and love to our environment, new environmental policies were implemented such as to recycle the used Barbecue forks and to avoid using plastic straws and disposable utensils. The ‘No Plastic Water Bottle Campaign’ was also launched. Two long reach spouts and chillers were installed onto the drinking fountains to encourage students to drink water from the drinking fountains and to use their own water bottles. All F.5 students went to a local organic farm to learn about green life and had a chance to appreciate our nature and realize the importance of conservation. The History Department, Visual Arts Department and Chinese History Department arranged some related projects for their students. Our school’s service clubs such as the Community Service Group, Community Youth Club and Sing Yin Pioneers organized services to help people in need in the community. For instance, some students helped out at Hong Chi Morninghill School, Tsui Lam, organizing activities for and taking care of some mentally and physically challenged children. Some students provided some tutoring to the students in Buddhist Chi King Primary School on weekdays. Gift boxes from staff and students were collected and donated to the Hong Kong

Church Network for the Poor. They were then distributed to the underprivileged families in Hong Kong. Some students showed their concern for the elderly by visiting homes for the elderly such as the China Coast Community and the elderly who are living alone in the district. The Catholic Society also helped to run stalls in the 2017 Caritas Bazaar and provided services for the elderly in the community. Moreover, the Principal delivered talks on ‘love and care’ to the students during morning assemblies and in the school hall. He, together with our Educational Psychologist Miss Chin gave a talk to our parents on the same theme.

2. To promote students’ creativity, collaboration and communication (3C) One of our goals is to develop in our students the ability to solve the problems they will face in life. Therefore, the skills of creativity, collaboration and communication are important elements for this. The curriculum for the F.2 GAP was modified. More activities were designed to promote students’ creativity, collaboration and communication through STEM Education. The students learned about 3D modeling and printing, laser cutting and how to use micro-controllers. With the STEM Education Grant, we kick started our school-based STEM education. The Chinese Department launched a programme named ‘My Creative Writing’ for Junior Form students. There was a competition for F.3 students in creating ‘Antithetical Couplets’. Many different projects were designed and completed in the Chinese History, IS, History, Biology, Chemistry departments. In the Hong Kong School Drama Festival, a group of 24 students took part in the production of ‘Pinocchio’, a thirty-minute drama performance. The production won the Award for Commendable Overall Performance and Award for Outstanding Stage Effects. So Chi Fai (F.5) received an award for a 4-week training course at LAMDA under the Bravo! Hong Kong Youth Theatre Awards Scheme. As the WiFi 900 project was implemented this year, we purchased iPADs for teaching and learning. Many teachers used iPADs in their teaching. Students demonstrated their talents and creativity, and they worked with their classmates to solve problems.

Several study tours were organized, including a ‘Marine Biology and Science Tour’ to Perth, Australia organized by the English Department. This was a successful experience for all involved. One of our students composed a music piece and some other students performed it. The team received Gold Award for Best Music Prize and Gold Award for Best Idea Prize in the GalaMusica School Creative Works 2018. Also, our students created music with a scene from

10 a movie. Their composition work was highly regarded and were invited by the EDB to share with other schools. An exhibition of students’ work was held in March where many art designs, photos, models and drawings were displayed to illustrate the creative aspect of our students. The History Department recommended two groups of students to work on some guided tours in Hong Kong. They presented their thematic tours through innovative means of delivery, e.g. drama and VR presentation. Their performances were well appreciated.

3. To develop the school as a learning organization through collaboration and self-evaluation Last year, teachers’ teaching competence was further increased by more collaboration and self-evaluation. The Principal wrote articles on educational issues every month for our teachers. Members in many Departments attended various seminars and courses. They shared the ideas, learning materials and information with other teachers. After the completion of every test or examination, sharing sessions were held to discuss the students’ common mistakes and weaknesses. In the coming three academic years from 2018 to 2021, we will focus on areas as identified in meetings of the School Self Evaluation Committee and other committees. On the Staff Development Day, teachers were divided into groups to discuss areas for improvement. A self-evaluation was carried out by all teachers, contributing their views in the plan formulation. After many discussions and meetings, the 3-year plan was prepared. We organized several study tours this year. During the tour to Taiwan, a collaboration between the Music Department, History Department and Aesthetic Committee was achieved. In the study tour to Shenyang, the Chinese Department and Chinese History Department worked hand-in-hand to help 40 students to learn the culture and history of the city.

Furthermore, we tried to develop the school as a learning organization through more and better collaboration. The Staff Development Committee issued circulars to disseminate the information of courses, workshops and seminars. There was a training session on how to use the cloud platform of the Office 365 system so that more teachers were encouraged to use this as a platform for sharing and collaboration.

4. Preparation for 50th School Anniversary A Preparatory Committee was formed. The Advisor was our Supervisor, Fr. Johnson Dhos, the Chairperson our Principal Mr. Wong Chi Keung and the Vice-Chairpersons Mr. Poon Wai Cheong and Mrs. Kwok Cheng Mei Ling. There were also 13 teachers working as Committee Members. Several sub-committees were set up. They included the Musical

Production Committee, the Open Day Committee, the Publication Committee, the Anniversary Thanksgiving Mass Committee, the Movie and Song Making Committee and the Celebrations Committee. All other teachers were assigned as members on different sub-committees. A few plans include:  to organize a musical production for late June or early July 2020 which includes dance, singing and drama  to compose two songs for the anniversary and to invite our alumni to perform  to organize an opening thanksgiving mass on 5 September 2019 in the Christ the King Chapel in Causeway Bay and to invite The Most Reverend Michael Yeung Ming Cheung to be the celebrant  to organize a closing thanksgiving mass at the end of the 2019-2020 school year in our school hall  to organize an Open day in February 2020  to publish a school magazine in November 2020  to decorate the campus, prepare souvenirs, arrange a ‘people forming words’ activity, and organize a community service activity in the Lam Tin district

5. STEM Educational Project STEM education refers to the teaching and learning of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics in an integrated, innovative and applied fashion. The government provided a one-off STEM Education Grant of $200,000.00 for the school to kick-start STEM education. We launched the STEM Educational Project in 3 phases. This year, the first phase was implemented. A maker space was set up in one of the IS laboratories. A laser cutter, three 3-D printers and various tools were purchased. The maker space was used by teachers and students regularly for teaching activities, preparation of robotics, science projects and STEM competitions. Furthermore, all F.2 students acquired the related skills in their GAP lessons. Junior computer literacy curriculum was updated to teach students to learn skills in STEM education. To better prepare our teachers, STEM training courses were organized. Students also had the programming training, mobile app development, robotics, micro-controller and 3D modelling training, etc. They found the workshops and training courses useful. The STEM week was held for the first time from 30 April to 5 May 2018. There were many related activities including a talk on ‘Stephen Hawking and the Black Hole’ given by Dr. Tong Shiu Sing from the Chinese University of Hong Kong. The talk attracted more than one hundred participants from both our school and other schools. The week was a great success. In March 2018, an exhibition of students’ works was organized. A lot of students’ works such as 3D printed models, laser-cut models, inventions and robots were displayed. Indeed, many

12 students displayed talents in this area and they won the Championships in STEM in mBot Competition and Deathblow Remote Control Robot GoGo Competition.

6. School Campus Improvement Project To better provide a safe and comfortable environment for our students and to enhance our facilities for quality education, improvements to the school campus were made. The canopy along the corridor to the annex staffroom was installed. The installation of the wind barrier in the covered playground was suspended due to the high installation fee. Other measures which could help solve the problem of table tennis training would be sought within this school year. The school had applied to the EDB for funding for major repairs, including re-painting of the rooms, staircases and some other areas. Our Mission Statement was put up on the exterior wall of our school hall and the mission of the Divine Word Missionaries was displayed on the wall near the school office in mosaic art form. An anti-slip coating was put on the covered playground, too. Room 201 was equipped with high-tech audio-visual devices. Students can do group work and have their oral practices there. Routers, iPads and other related devices were purchased to better implement the Information Technology in Education. A Maker Space was set up in the Integrated Science Laboratory 2. Equipment such as 3D printers, a laser cutter and other electronic devices were purchased for STEM education. The organic farm on 4/F was turned into a Chinese Herb Garden.

Wherever appropriate, numerical performance indicators will be used to measure the effectiveness of the projects. However, for many projects, only process variables could be used to gauge how successful the implementation of a project is. Without baseline measures or norms for all Hong Kong schools, numerical success criteria may not be appropriate. Even if the necessary baseline measures or Hong Kong norms are available, the use of numerical success criteria in some cases is still doubtful as many factors affect students’ learning outcomes.

School Management and Staff Consultation

In the 2017-2018 school year, the school was managed, administered and operated by the Incorporated Management Committee in accordance to the Constitution laid down by the IMC which shall comply with the Education Ordiance and the code of aid for secondary schools.

The IMC was composed of 8 SVD managers appointed by the Sponsoring Body, 1 parent manager and 1 alternate parent manager, 1 teacher manager and 1 alternate teacher manager, 1 alumni manger and 1 independent manager.

The registered SVD managers were Rev. Johnson Dhos, supervisor and the chairperson of the IMC, Rev. Flandez Jay Roa, Br. Wang Bao-Liang, Rev. John Baptist Le Van Ba, Rev. Hadiarto Heribertus, Rev. Balubun Anthonius Reynolds, Rev. Mullackal Chakkappan Manoj, and Rev. Carbral Henry Vertucio was the alternate SVD manager. The teacher manager was Miss Lok Yuen Kwan and the alternate teacher manager was Mr. Poon Wai Cheong. The parent manager was Mr. So Kwok Kei and the alternate parent manager was Ms. Au Suk Man. The alumni manager was Mr. Chow Im Hei and the independent manager was Mr. Kwok But. The Honorary manager was Rev. John Zhang Xinghao. The 2nd Assistant Principal, Mrs. Kwok Cheng Mei Ling attended IMC meetings by invitation.

Our school’s administrative arrangements emphasize staff consultation. There were three consultative committees: the Academic Affairs Committee, the Student Support Committee and the Administrative Affairs Committee to discuss matters related to academic affairs, student affairs and staff welfare respectively. These three committees aimed at providing optimal opportunity for consultation between the principal and the teaching staff. Besides, staff meetings were held about four times per school year. Apart from reporting, these meetings also aimed to collect the opinion of teachers. After consultation, sometimes decisions were made by the principal. For important matters, the final decision was made by the IMC.

Routine decisions were made by the Principal and the Executive Committee. This committee, comprising the Principal and the two Assistant Principals met about once a week.

Some have represented Hong Kong in international competitions. Many were experienced markers, SBA coordinators and examiners in public examinations. Above all, their efforts led to a truly outstanding education outcome. In other words, we have a world-class teaching team.

About 21.2% of them lived in Lam Tin, 22.1% in Kwun Tong, 12.4% in Kowloon Bay, 8.9% in Ngau Tau Kok and about 12.4% from Tseung Kwan O. There was a clear shift in the area our students live, with less in Lam Tin, Kwun Tong and Tseung Kwan O after we relocated to the new campus. Their median family monthly income was $22,137. 35 students were Catholics while most students did not have any religion.

18 b. Reading Habit

Students borrowed 12,618 books from the school library, which was similar to the record last year. The average was 12.62 books per student. The daily average issue rate was 82. This statistics excluded the books loaned under the Extensive Reading Schemes, which stood at 1,632. There were many book loan of these kinds of books. To ease the problem, students can borrow books of Chinese ERS and English ERS during Chinese and English lessons. This allowed students more time to choose books and could increase the number of book checkouts. c. Graduates Careers Survey

Class Structure And Streaming Policies

Form F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 F6

Number of classes 5 5 5 5 5 5

The class size in Form 1 has to be reduced according to EDB’s regulation. This year the class size was 33.

As all the allocated Form 1 students are in the same band, there is no streaming policy for Forms 1 to 3. All the 5 classes in each form are more or less of the same academic standard.

Streaming starts in Form 4 and students are allocated into Arts and Science classes according to their preferences and their academic standards. Beginning in the 02-03 school year, Form 4 students can choose to study in the challenge class. This class learns beyond the confine of examination syllabuses, to better realize their potential. Statistical analysis revealed that the programme was effective in raising the academic achievement of students in the HKCEE. Under the New Senior Secondary Curriculum which started in the 2009-10 school year, we maintain this structure for the long term benefit of our students. Form 4 students have to study 4 core subjects – English, Chinese, Maths and Liberal Studies and 3 electives.

Curriculum

The design of our curriculum centers on our mission - to enable students to live a full life; a life that is healthy, affluent and meaningful.

To live a meaningful life, one must have proper values. In Sing Yin, we treasure Christian and good Chinese values the most. Consequently, we allocate two lessons per cycle throughout the 6 years of schooling on moral and civic education. These are supported by many other programs and activities outside of lesson hours.

Apart from moral development, we aim to provide a broad education through a balance of subjects. A balanced curriculum in academic and cultural subjects is provided for students in Forms 1 to 3. A great variety of options are offered to our Form 4 to Form 6 students.

21 a. Moral and Civic Education

From the time it was founded in 1970, our school has always emphasized the moral development of our students through both formal and informal means. Moral Education is formally taught, with two periods per cycle, in all classes, from Form 1 to Form 6. In the mid-90s’ with the approach of Hong Kong’s return to China, Civic Education is incorporated with the objective of helping students to better understand and know our country. A range of activities is organized to foster moral development and civic duties of the students. These include Morning Reflection, weekly prayers, talks, visits and community services. Please refer to the departmental report for more details.

It is through formal teaching and various activities that help our students to develop into citizens who love themselves and their neighbour, set their eyes on the district, help build Hong Kong, care about their Mother land and embrace the world.

Our school aims to expand the horizon of our students’ spirituality, to introduce them to Christian principles, values and beliefs and to help them find the meaning of life.

To develop our students' spirituality, we introduce our students to the Catholic faith and Christian beliefs through formal scheduled lessons, in which they have a chance to reflect and judge if these are worthwhile for themselves.

At the same time we try to deepen our Catholic students' faith and to introduce the joy brought forth by the Gospel to them through various religious activities.

Special programmes are organized for Catholic students every Tuesday afternoon to foster their faith. The Catholic Society also arranges retreat, Way of the Cross, visits and community service for its members. Other activities during the year include: Prayer Service for the new school year; morning mass for F1 to F5 students; visit and caroling in "Home for the Aged"; and lessons for students interested in the Catholic faith.

The workload for catholic teachers is great. We employed a teaching assistant to help with catholic activities. Rev. John Zhang Xinghao, S.V.D. was also kind to join us as a teacher for Moral and Civic Education since 2011. He was the Department Head of MoED Department.

22 b. Period Allocation For Subjects

d. Time on Learning Modes

We aim at the whole person development of our students. We do not restrict ourselves to just academic teaching and examinations. As revealed in the following three tables, about 8.4% of students’ school hours were spent on sports, performances and out of classroom activities. There were 47 out of classroom learning activities for junior form students and 44 for senior form students. We arranged four study tours, one for 20 students to Perth, one for 36 students to Taiwan, another one for 30 students to Taiwan and one for 40 to Shenyang.

e. Medium of Instruction

Our school aims at trilingulism in English, Cantonese and Putonghua, and biliteracy in English and Chinese for all students. Of course the proficiency level expected for each of these languages differs. In spoken language, we expect students to speak excellent Cantonese, fluent English and reasonable Putonghua. In written language, we expect them to write excellent Chinese and English. As our students’ home environment is rich in Cantonese and Chinese, they need not spend too much time mastering them. However, their homes tend to be a poor English environment. We need to make up for this deficit. All our students were capable to learn through English. English is adopted as the medium of instruction for all subjects other than Putonghua and Chinese subjects, P.E., Visual Art, F.2 GAP (Project Work) and Moral and Civic Education. An English Department Head is appointed to co-ordinate English language across the curriculum. Since 1999, a native-speaking English teacher (NET) has been employed to give additional support to other teachers. During the summer holiday, a short English programme is organized for new Form 1 students. In 2010, the EDB announced the new policy “Fine-tuning of MOI”. However, we were not affected at all. Our present MOI is the same as before, that is, English is our major medium of instruction for all classes. Analysis revealed that our students’ academic achievement is not compromised.

Extra-curricular Activities

A wide range of activities is organized outside regular school hours. They provide senior form students the opportunity to discover their potential, develop their leadership qualities and improve their communication skills. They also enable junior form students to discover their interests and develop their creativity. All students will benefit by taking part in good leisure activities which will help them to be physically and psychologically healthy, and refraining from bad pastimes.

Through participation in extra-curricular activities, we aim at enhancing a sense of belonging and brotherhood of Sing Yin boys through horizontal and vertical integration of both teachers and students.

Hence there is nothing “extra” about extra-curricular activities. Sing Yin looks upon these activities as an integral part of the education we offer. Students are expected to treat the activities just like formal lessons. For example, once they sign up for an activity, they have the duty to attend it. If necessary, they have to follow the procedures for asking for leaves.

Students are free to join the clubs that appeal to them most. They are expected to be a member of at least one club and remain active members throughout the school year. F1 to F5 students should devote more time on ECA. They are encouraged to join one club for a number of years to deepen their knowledge and skill in a particular area that interests them the most. They should also join other clubs for a year or so to broaden their interests. F6 students should put their focus back on their study, joining one club is an appropriate balance.

The Students’ Association was set up in the mid-70s' and has since been playing a very active role in the school. Its executive committee is elected by students. Apart from serving as a bridge between the students and the school by reflecting students' opinion and making suggestions for the welfare of the students, it also provides services and organizes many activities such as the sale of stationary, subscription and distribution of newspaper, Christmas variety show, blood donation, fun fair and many others.

There were about 70 clubs and organizations to cater for different interests of students. The academic clubs provide opportunities for students to gain knowledge and experience to supplement the formal curriculum. Students enjoy major activities like singing contest, variety show, drama, choral speaking competition, Mathematics Olympiad and exhibitions. The interest clubs provides chances for students to take part in inter-school quizzes and competitions, to participate in outdoor activities, visits and outdoor training and fund-raising activities.

The Catholic Club organizes weekly Catholic lesson and religious activities for the formation of Catholic students, guide students to discover Christian values and beliefs; and to enhance their spiritual and moral development.

As a Catholic school, Sing Yin places special emphasis to community service. The Community Service Group organizes activities for the community. Members also pay visits to old-age homes, orphanages; participate in clean-up beaches campaigns,

26 flag-selling and charity walks, etc. Through these real life experiences, our students are enriched with the best possible set of values by which to live a meaningful life. The Sing Yin Pioneers, the Catholic Club, Scouts, the Student Association also organize community service programmes.

There are post-exam activities for F1- F5 students. The activity programme is organized after the final exam in early July. The activities include talks on topics of interest, cultural performance, quizzes, singing contest, sports games, visits and field trips, etc.

There were 66 clubs or organizations. Altogether, there were 3201members. On average, each student joined 3.5 clubs. The total club expenditure was $52,569.00. Please note that the total expenditure excluded the costs/fees of training courses, which were much higher than these expenses.

Support For Students

Sing Yin adopts a whole school approach to support students. Every staff member- teachers, office staff, teaching assistants, and janitors are there to help our students. Students are also encouraged to help fellow schoolmates. Students in need can approach any staff member or suitable fellow students for help. Of course, there are times when professional help should be provided. In these cases, students will be referred to our school social workers.

For daily life problems, students can approach fellow students for help. Our Sing Yin Pioneers, Prefects, Student Association and Club officials are all there to help. Of course, Class Teacher and subject teachers are there to help too.

Any student who wishes to talk over personal problem is encouraged to do so with his Class Teacher. However, if the student should, for any reason, prefer to talk to someone other than his Class Teacher, he may approach his subject teachers or a member of the departments listed below. a. Guidance Department- it aims to help students develop positive self-concepts, achieve personal growth and interpersonal skills, and realize their own potential to the full. A team of counseling teachers, together with the social worker, organize and conduct both preventive and developmental programmes for the students to achieve these objectives. The programmes include personal growth groups, peer tutoring groups, leadership training camps, study skill workshop and orientation programmes. The Department also organizes Parents' Day to promote better communication between school and parents. All along the school adopts the "Whole School Approach to Guidance" to provide better service to the students. b. Careers Department- it aims to prepare students to make sound decisions on further education and career opportunities. Through visits to organizations and exhibitions, talks, seminars and video shows, information on education, employment and training opportunities is disseminated to assist students in making the right choice. c. Discipline Department- it aims to ensure good manners and good order in each classroom and throughout the school, to foster a healthy school culture in which effective teaching and learning can take place. Students are encouraged to develop self-discipline, to respect the rights and property of others and to attain a high standard of behaviour. They shall be responsible for their own behaviour and breaches of school rules may incur some penalty. However punishment will be accompanied by efforts to teach students the appropriate behaviour so that they can learn to be self-disciplined.

As a preventive measure our school is adopting the Whole School Approach to Guidance and Discipline whereby all teachers participate actively in assisting students to resolve their problems. Students who suffer from discipline problems can approach any teachers for help. If necessary, they will be referred to discipline team members.

30 d. Health & Safety Department

We also have a team of teachers to provide guidance on health related problems. They give advice students on physical health, mental health and fitness issues. If the situation warrants it, students will be advised to visit doctors. e. School Social Worker

Our social worker Ms. Fan Lai Mei, Queenie gladly helps with personal and family problems. Students and parents may approach them through the school office. As social workers are not employed directly by the School, they are not required to report to the school authority. They will keep confidentiality in accordance to the professional code of conduct for social workers.

Besides emotional support, we also offer financial support to our students. Using government funds, donated funds or our own funds, we offer financial subsidy for needy students to support their extra-curricular activities organized by Sing Yin, including training courses, study tours and graduate dinners. In particular, in the 2017-18 school year, $196,200.00 from the School-based After-school Learning and Support Programme was used to subsidize 67 needy students. The $132,825.00 from the Jockey Club Life Wide Learning Fund helped subsidize another 164 students. Their personal and social development and community involvement improved moderately.

Student Performance a. Student Service

Students have the opportunity to take up voluntary social service through the Community Service Group, Community Youth Club, Sing Yin Pioneers, Catholic Club and Boy Scouts. Other organizations also contribute. Students’ social services were entered into a record sheet. And of course, they have abundant chances to serve their fellow schoolmates, but these are not counted as social service.

Through the five groups mentioned above and programs run by the Social Service Coordinating Committee, 305 students provided 7770 hours of outside-school social service in this school year, with an average of 25.47 hours per person. The service hour exceeded the standard of 2000 hours set by the Heart to Heart Programme organized by the Volunteer Movement, which we joined in 2006. Our students also helped raise a total of $15,265.40, including $10174.40 on the Dress Casual Day, for charity organizations through school collections. A total of 63 students and staff donated blood.

As a requirement of the Student Learning Profile, we collected statistics of service hours for inside school activities. The total hours of service were 61,876, with an average of 62 hours per person. These figures were quite impressive.

b. Student Discipline

This year, the discipline department held 6 talks, a meeting with new teacher and class teachers, 2 perfect or monitor training sessions and other activities to develop self-discipline and self-control of our students, and help maintain a harmonious and safe place.

Through these efforts and all our teachers’ efforts, our students behaved very well as in previous years. Their attendance rates and punctuality rates stood above 98% and 99.58% respectively. The number of suspension from lessons was 5 which was far lower than the last year’s recod of 16 and detention periods on Saturdays was 522 which was also lower than the last year’s record of 568. 41.02% of the offending students were detained because they failed to hand in their assignments habitually. The number of offences were found less than last year, reflecting the high effectiveness of our programmes to develop self-discipline and self-control of our studnets.

d. Public Examination Results

Interpreting the Diploma of Secondary Education Examinaion Result

The DSE examination was held for the first time in 2012. As a new examination, some people may find it difficult to interpret its results, so we offer our own interpretation here. It may not concur with other interpretations, but as there is no consensus yet, we will use it for internal purpose. The official position of the HKEAA is that this is a new examination and hence its result should not be linked to any old ideas. In that case, we could follow a point system as used by the University of Hong Kong. Level 1 attainment is 1 point, Level 2 is 2 points and so on up to Level 5. Level 5* is 6 and Level 5** is 7 points. Hence if the total points for the best 5 subjects is less than 20, the chance of admission to HKU is very small. On the other hand if the total is above 25, the chance of being admitted to most degree programs is good. Under this scheme there is no need to think in terms of credits and distinctions. If you find it unfamiliar, you can equate an attainment of Level 2 as a pass. Getting five Level 2 means a student is eligible to study in sub-degree programs such as Associate Degrees or Higher Diplomas. Level 4 is a credit. Herein lies much controversy. Our rationale rests on the UCAS tariff system as shown below. There the tariff point for Level 4 is the same as the point for the Credit C in the Advanced Level examination of the United Kingdom. Under this interpretation, our students should be able to get a subsidized degree program if he obtains 5 credits or better. If Level 4 is not considered as credit, then they would be able to get a subsidized degree program even if he has no credits, which is at odds with our past experience, in which students with no credits have virtually no chance of studying in universities. It is more reasonable to consider Level 4 as credit C. Then Level 5 is B and 5* is distinction A. That leaves Level 5**, which could be thought of as A* in the GCE AL examination. With the proposed interpretation, it is easy to remember the actual requirement for admission to subsidized degree programs in Hong Kong in 2012. If a student obtains 5 credits and 3322 in the four core subjects, he/she stands a very good chance. If not, the chance of admission is much smaller. But do bear in mind that this is a crude idea. Our teachers will give a more elaborate picture to our students.

Biology Department Annual Report 2017-2018

1. Review of Objective

2.1 To implement the NSS curriculum

F4-F6 NSS curriculum as well as F3 Biology school based curriculum are smoothly implemented last year. Minor modification was made after evaluation in the department meeting. To cater students’ diverse learning abilities is a main challenge in this few years. We hope that we can apply different strategies to let student achieve deep learning. This not just equip our students with knowledge, skills and attitude to make wise choices in accordance with their interests, abilities and orientations; and to guide them to integrate their career/academic aspirations with whole-person development and life-long learning at their schooling stages.

Even with tight teaching schedule, we try to arrange various outdoor activities to arouse students’ interest in the biological world. We have explored the utilization of virtual reality technology in our learning activities.

In addition, there are three students not attending DSE Biology examination as they fail to handle the subject.

2.2 To promote students’ interest in biological world by broadcasting videos

We had broadcast two videos about the biological world in the language theatre this year. As scheduled, all Form 4 and Form 5 Biology students had invited one to two Form 1 student(s) to participate the video broadcast in the theatre in September and May held by Biology Club. Students were amazed by the creatures in various habitats they seldom came across.

Language theatre provides a wonderful environment for video broadcasting. The covered playground is too noisy to launch this activities.

2.3 Biology Field trips for F4 and F5

All F.5 Biology students had participated the 2 days-1 night field trip in Caritas Chan Chun Ha Field Studies Centre in on 7/5-8/5/18. We have chosen 86 freshwater stream in Mui Wo as the habitat for field study. Students were well performed and handed in a high-quality field report at the end. Their learning attitude was appraised by the tutors. A one day Biotechnology workshop has also been launched on 5 Feb 2018. Students have extracted the DNA from various local plants and did the DNA fingerprint via gel electrophoresis by their own in the laboratory as they have sufficient equipment. At the end, they have to figure the phylogenetic relationship of these plant species.

We have also arranged a field study to Mai Po for all Form 4 Biology students on 17 Jan 2018. This not only helps to enhance their understandings about the work of WWF on this well-known protected wetland in Hong Kong, but also give respects to other creatures and enjoy the peaceful countryside. Such outdoor activities are highly praised by our students.

2.4 Blood stain workshop

We also arranged a workshop organized by The Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups in February. Twenty-five students (F3 to F5) who are interested in forensic science have participated. This may give them some insight on the jobs concerned this sector.

2.5 Nominate students to join various extracurricular activities. A. Summer Clinical Attachment programme

This year we have nominated three F5 students to attend the summer clinical attachment programme organized by the Chinese University of Hong Kong. However, only one has been admitted. Student found that it is a valuable opportunity to learn more about the study of Medicine and various training of health services in Hong Kong.

B. Summer course on Marine ecology and conservation

Two Form 4 students have been nominated to the above course held by HKUST. Only one was admitted as there were a lot of applicants.

C. Hong Kong Joint School Biology Olympiad

HKUST hosts Hong Kong Joint School Biology Olympiad to prepare for future

International Biology Olympiad. Four students had participated the round one test. They has won a gold, a silver and a bronze awards. Though they failed to proceed to the second round but they have learned a lot through the lecture series held in different tertiary institutions.

2.6 To prepare remedial work for low ability students

Students failed in the tests and exams had to join tutorials after school and did supplementary exercises. Some of them only got little improvement as they spare not much time on studying.

2.7 To use iPads and Apps in Biology lesson

Recent years, we have conducted experiments and learning activities using iPads with data-logging devices. However, due to the time-limit and tight teaching schedule, not much can be done. We hope to explore some STEM activities in future.

2.9 To learn the green feature in school campus

This year, all F3 students had done a mini project on one of the green features (aquafarm, coral ecology, plants in campus and butterfly garden) in our school. They can get information from the QR codes next to the plants on the ground and the first floor in the campus using their iPads or their electronic device.

2.10. Implementation of Form 3 Biology

This year we had two single lessons in a cycle instead of double periods. With some tailor-made changes, the experimental work has run smoothly. Continuous evaluation will be made throughout the year.

3. Review of Evaluation

3.1 Academic achievement

The public examination result for 2018 HKDSE was good. The percentage of students getting 4 or above was 71%. Two students were absent in the exam.

The academic result for F3, F4 and F5 were good. Even though remedial work were given, some F3 students failed in both test and exam. This year ten students come from F5B who have not studied any other science subject. Their academic result was a bit disappointed and we hope that more remedial work will be prepared for them. I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to Mr Wong Chi Keung and Mr Wong Ka Kit for their valuable advices and help.

3.2 Implementation Plan

In general, we are satisfied with the work done last year. We will try to work harder to get a better achievement in different areas in the coming year. At last I would like to thank for the cooperation of our department members and all the students concerned.

The departmental policies on homework, class work and informal tests have been evaluated. Generally, teachers allocated adequate homework and informal tests were given after each chapter or topic, and provided remedial work was provided to ensure that all students completed sufficient exercises.

More feedback on the students work was given in order to ensure that students could follow the lessons. Furthermore, an evaluation survey was given to students to gather insightful and valuable information to develop strategies to improve the quality of teaching.

Focused peer observation among Chemistry teachers has been impletmented. Post-observation discussions were also held. It is believed that it can enhance self-evaluation of lessons and provide more chances to learn effective teaching strategies from other colleagues.

Earlier intervention approach adopted to arrange more systematic remedial classes. A parents’ letter was issued to the student involved in order to raise awareness. Remedial classes included revision and assessment.

2.3 Enrichment science talks

A series of Modern Chemistry talks organized by CUHK for students to acquire the latest and advanced scientific knowledge was held in March, 2017. All F.4 and 5 students were also encouraged to join the “Chemsits Online” self-study award scheme which cover a wide range of Chemistry topics, including synthetic polymers, gastronomy, nanomaterials and food chemistry.

2.4 Enhancement programmes to facilitate students to achieve deep learning

A Science Project Competition Team was set-up. Tutors (alumni) funded by DLG were hired to give extra-tuition to students in basic research methods and project planning. Members from the team joined the Hong Kong Student Science Project Competition 2018 and won the “Honourable Mention Senior Division – Investigation” award by a Chemistry Project.

F.5 students were encouraged to join the Secondary School Mathematics & Science Competition organized by The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. A 3-day traning programme was held during the Easter holiday for the students. Four Sing Yin students were awarded the High Distinction in the Chemistry competition.

IJSO selection tests and training sessions jointly held by the Departments of Integrated Science, Biology and Physics continued this school year. Six F.2 students were selected to join the training programme of the IJSO in the summer holiday and they will sit for the screening test arranged by CUHK in October.

Over 40 students took part in “Chemist Online Self-study Award Scheme Program” which aims to nurture the scientific literacy of students by providing them with an exposure to more advanced chemistry online lectures.

A STS approach of learning Chemistry was used. Some interesting passages adapted from journals and newspapers were shared through Facebook for F.4 to F.6 students. Reading and enhancement programmes will continue in the coming school year.

2.5 School Major Concerns

To address the school’s major concern ‘To nurture caring and love’, ‘To promote students’ creativity, collaboration and communication’ and ‘To develop the school as a learning organization through collaboration and self-evaluation.’, different kinds of enhancement programmes & remedial classes were arranged and peer observation and post-observation meetings were held.

3. Overall evaluation

3.1 Focused peer observations were carried out and a sharing meeting on the interpretation of the curriculum has been held in the Chemistry Department. The lesson being observed focused on the teaching planning and common mistakes reported in HKDSE examination report. Feedback was given by the observers to the observed in the post-observation meeting.

Progress reports from the members were also discussed in the Department meetings, and suggestions were made by the Panel Head.

3.2 The percentage of students achieving level 2 or above was 96.7% and the percentage for level 5 or above was 42.4% in the 2016 HKDSE examination. The results are slightly lower than last year (100% and 45.9% respectively) but still much better than the overall performance in Hong Kong (88.0% and 26.4% respectively).

中國歷史科 2017-2018 年度報告

本年度目標共有四項:

1. 時代不斷進步，科技日新月移，教學模式已發展成多元化，為提高學生對本科的興趣及深層的學習，故加強在資訊科技方面的教學，善用多媒體影音教具，盡可能在課堂上利用電腦及互聯網資訊協助授課，加強本科的靈活性及趣味性。

2. 不以孤立的課室教學為滿足，多舉辦參觀考察活動，務使課室學習與遊歷並重，開拓學生的視野，提昇學生的興趣，以配合教育局推行的全方位學習方向。

3. 加強課外閱讀，推廣讀書風氣，培養學生分析資料及思辨的能力。

4. 活動教學──齊動手鼓勵學生積極參與分組製作活動，從積極參與中，訓練其團體合作精神,以配合公民教育的發展。從分組匯報、寫論述題及學會活動中訓練高班同學的組織及辦事能力；1-3 年級的繪畫中國地圖，目的在使學生在繪畫過程中 ,培養其對國家民族的認同感，並認識祖國的名山大川，歷史名城，令其對中國古代歷史及現代的行政區域有一定的認識；專題研習方面，以香港史及乙部課程為主，並配合學校每年的關注項目，從而培養其協作及自學能力。

各項目標評估如下:

1. 資訊科技教學普及，影視教材充裕，全體任教老師已有資訊科技訓練，均能利用多媒體影音備課及教學，例如電子簡報、影視光碟等，並能利用即時上網及其他網上資源，如圖片、視訊片段、文字資料下載及電台廣播節目等，確實能吸引學生對此科的興趣。展望未來，學生對此科的學習興趣及上課情緒均能有一定的提高。

2. 本年度進行了五次參觀活動。

2017 年 9 月至 10 月份，本科安排了中三級的同學參觀了「萬壽載德－清宮帝后誕辰慶典」展覽，是次展覽透過故宮博物院藏，介紹清宮萬壽盛典的禮儀制度，以及中國古代豐富的祝壽文化。同學都表示展覽內容有趣，回饋正面，參觀後的工作紙也用心完成。

中史學會於 2018 年 1 月 27 日舉辦了「赤柱軍人墳場」的參觀活動，是次活動邀請了歷史專家蔡耀倫老師作講解。同學們在王美甄老師及鄭思愛老師的帶領下，對過往香港保衛戰及有關人物的歷史有更深的認識。

2018 年 2 月份，本科亦安排了中一級同學參觀「綿亙萬里—世界遺產絲綢之路」展覽，展品包括玉器、絲織品、三彩胡人俑、金銀器、青銅器及大型壁畫等，亦加入了多媒體及互動元素，豐富參觀者的學習體驗。但由於展覽程度較深，中一同學較難掌握，而內容亦未能配合教學進度。

2018 年 5 月 4 日，王美甄老師帶領了中五 15 位選修中史的同學到「饒宗頤文化館」，參加了「學生歷史文化學習活動」，學生們對這棟滿有歷史的建築物都充滿興趣。除了參觀之外，同學們也有參與講座及話劇表演，增加他們對香港歷史的與趣。

最後是本科與中史科合作，為高中同學舉辦的「東北三省探索之旅」五天遊學圑。是次活動於 6 月 27 日至 7 月 1 日進行，由王美甄老師、羅美芳老師、魏簡汝婷老師與鄭思愛老師帶領，共40位同學參加，行程由青少年海外交流中心承辦。是次活動得到教育局——高中學生交流活動計劃及中華歷史文化獎勵基金的資助，每位同學只須繳付 3614 元團費。行程包括﹕遼寧省博物館、瀋陽故宮、侵華日軍七三一部隊遺址、偽滿皇宮博物館等等，參觀活動順利完成，事後參與的同學均表示對前人的工藝，科技發展，生活文化留下深刻印象。期間已要求參與同學寫下遊學感想，稍後與其他同學分享學習成果。是次探索之旅由於要遷就航班及學校事務，實際只有 3 天半的行程，時間十分緊迫，加上行程需要乘坐高鐵穿梭東北三省，候車需時，以致逗留景點時間不足，同學體會未足深入，故來年如再舉辦遊學團，將詳加考慮此項。

另一方面，中史學會亦有舉辦其他活動如：講座(香港戰後與日佔時期)、午間問答比賽、電影欣賞(金陵十三釵)等。

3. 中史學會亦有舉辦其他活動如：講座(香港戰後與日佔時期)、午間問答比賽、電影欣賞(金陵十三釵)等。

4. 活動教學──齊動手：為配合本年度的關注項目「關愛」及「創意」，各專題研習報告盡可能以此為方向。

中一級

上學期專題研習題目：試根據舊石器時代和新石器時代的有關史實，展現遠古時期的文化- 呈交形式：創作漫畫，並完成工作紙。呈交日期：11 月

下學期專題研習題目：文字的發展呈交形式：同學可分組(3-5 人)製作簡報或模型，形式不拘。呈交日期：４月

以遠古時期的文化，創作四格漫畫，學生表現一般，有心有力，悉力以赴，務求盡善盡美者罕有；至於下學期報告「文字的發展」學生表現略遜上學期。交來的功課用心製作者不多，馬虎者卻見不少。

中二級上學期專題研習題目：中國是世界上文明發達最早的國家之一，在科技發明方面有可觀的成就；並以造紙術、指南針、火藥和印刷術為古代四大發明。這些發明的應用及傳播，不但對世界文明的推進，起了重要的作用，且對人類持續發展有甚大意義。試從中國古代四大發明中，選出其中一項，製作模型一款。（模型的製作，可包括非火藥的武器的發明）呈交形式：模型製作此部分學生以實物繳交，交來作品比去年認真，所呈功課頗見精美。

下學期專題研習：配合全年關注事項：關愛題目：中國歷史上出現過不少重要建設，例如長城、運河、古都等，為後世的發展及防衛作出了重要的貢獻。試從上述建設中，選取其中一項，探討它的歷代沿革，說明它對後世所產生的作用，並提出具體的規劃建議，提升它對國家未來發展的意義和價值。呈交形式：簡報、文字報告或視訊檔案（三選一）呈交日期：活假後

此部分學生表現與往年相若，大多以簡報繳交，當中亦有用心創作者，唯馬虎者多。

中三級上學期：題目：誰家(先秦諸子)學說最「關愛」? 要求：學生分組研習，內容盡可能配合本年度關注項目「關愛」。內容為乙部課程之第一章。呈交形式：可以簡報、廣播劇或錄像等形式表達。

此部分學生表現不俗，單一以簡報模式繳交，內容多以介紹其中一家學說為主，唯大多以網上資料為主，對「關愛」卻鮮有提及。

下學期題目：香港的宗教場所介紹(同學可選取香港任何一所宗教場所作介紹) 要求：研習內容盡可能配合本年度關注項目「關愛」。內容為乙部課程之第二章。呈交形式：同上。

此部分學生表現表現頗為敷衍，作品亦大多未能緊扣關注項目「關愛」與宗教教義的關係，為杜絕學生只用抄襲網上資料，根本未有認真探究本土宗教情況，有老師要求同學製作報告時，附上到此一遊自拍照乙張，好確切保證同學基本有到目的地遊歷參觀。

總評：初中學生對本科興趣甚濃，這在測驗考試成績及上課時的態度可見一斑，唯在繳交分組專題時未見用心，來年可在此方面多加鼓勵，如增設比賽獎項等。本年度文憑試共 17 人報考，15 人應考，達２級以上者 14 人，即 93.3%，獲 4 級以上者 10 人，即 66.7%，其中有一位同學取得 5*級，整體成績理想。由以上初中學生的上課態度及公開試成績可見，本科仍有很大的發展空間，期以數年，在各同工努力下，中四選修人數將會持續上升。

中國語文科 2017-2018 年度工作報告

中國語文科 2017 至 2018 年度的教學目標共有兩大範疇，以下各項工作皆配合全校關注事項來進行(每年的恆常工作從略)。現根據兩個關注事項，即關愛、發展創意潛能，中國語文科就學年初工作計劃學科方面報告如下︰

甲、學科方面

 加強為高中同學保底與扶中 (中六)  為中六同學開辦的語文鞏固班及語文進階班順利完成，學生出席率尚可。惟因中六同學課後已因校方統一安排各科補課，故同學未必一定能出席中文科所辦的特別加強班。其次中六老師亦反映由於老師未必認識同學，未能探究個別同學的問題，所以課堂只能教授一般答卷技巧及重溫常識，成效未必太大。

 加強口語訓練(中五及中六)  班級由自行訓練改為全級分組，每組由不同班同學組成，同學反應不俗，老師同樣認為可幫助同學見識不同的對手。  去年共進行了六次聯校口語練習，其中中六佔五次；而中五一次。學生反應極佳，報名者眾，然而由於聯校練習多於課後或星期六進行，而所需師生比例一多為 1 比 15，每次均需多位老師出勤，工作量大，建議設立明確方法，分擔工作。  本年度為首屆文憑試，卷一以十二篇文言指定篇章設題，為此本科老師合力印製文言精篇導讀小書。精篇取名《文言十二菁華》已於十一月印行並分送中六同學，同學當感老師的苦心與期盼。

 校本評核(中四至中六)  根據去年(2017)校本評核報告，本校的整體評分較考評局標準分高，令同學的校本評核分數略有變動，為更貼近公開的考評要求，本年度改變了部份校本評核的評分準則。改動效果甚佳，根據學生所買試卷顯示，本屆學生校本評核所調分數尚可接受。  所有校本評核評測為達公平，採取先討論後評卷方式。即各級必先討論標準，抽取若干樣本評改，任教老師達成一致標準，才開始全面評改。老師認為此法可行，而且較易掌握評分，將成恆常方法。

 重訂實用文寫作格式及評估要點(中一至中三)  為更貼近中三 TSA 的考評要求，本科重新修訂中三級實用文教學筆記，並嚴格要求同學在實用文格式上下功夫，期望教、考、評幾方面互相配合，務令同學去掉大意粗心，在寫作實用文的成績上有所進益。  除中三級外，中一及中二兩級亦依上述方向修訂實用文寫作教學內容，至於評估，亦鼓勵以 TSA 之要求為設計藍本。  經過一年實踐，初中級老師均認同此方向正確可行，對同學學習實用文有更清晰明確之理路。  日後會根據每年 TSA 最新的考評資料再予修訂。

乙、推動閱讀風氣，培養閱讀習慣  為培養同學到圖書館借閱圖書的習慣，本年度開始各級所有廣泛閱讀書本，已統一存藏到圖書館，鼓勵同學多到圖書館借書。

 廣泛閱讀社際比賽(中一至中五)  同學每讀一書，須完成廣泛閱讀工作紙乙份，每份工作紙以十分為滿分。全校共 276 人獲良好獎，57 人獲優異獎。初中組最高得分為 111 分(三甲班陳勇芬同學及岑樂庭同學)；高中組最高得分為 75 分(五丁班林曉明同學)。以上三位同學獲得廣泛閱讀比賽之良書益友獎以茲鼓勵。  除個人獎項外，初中級亦與課外活動組合作推行廣泛閱讀社際比賽。全年廣泛閱讀工作紙所得分將算入年度社際比賽中，好鼓勵同學在享受個人的閱讀興味之餘，也為所屬團體增光。初中三級全年工作紙共得 27743 分，表現滿意。

 閱讀講座(中一至中三)  在 2018 年 2 月 12 日第七、八節於禮堂進行了初中級閱讀講座。是次活動邀得資深教育工作者范建梅老師擔任講者。范老師在一個多小時的時間內向接近五百名初中同學介紹了超過四十本課外閱讀書籍，令同學眼界大開，獲益為多。同學表現投入，亦有不少同學由於對范老師的推介大感興趣而自費訂閱圖書，共計 208 本。可惜有 9 人次訂購之書籍出現缺貨情況，是為美中不足之處。

 校外閱讀活動  第十二屆香港文學節之圍讀工作坊在本科老師的鼓勵之下，數位中三級同學於六月時成功參加由知名作家主持之圍讀工作坊。參加人數雖不多，但對於愛好閱讀的同學來說，能親灸作家，圍讀共話，實在是一件樂事。

丙、建立寫作習慣，提升創意思維  我的創作 (中一至中三)  同學每一至三星期寫作一篇「我的創作」。同學從每學期的作品中自選其中一篇作品輸入成電腦文檔，分別呈交中文科及電腦科老師批核。每班同學的自選作品結集成一冊《我的創作》，於學期結束時分發予同學，讓所有同學都感受到成為作者的樂趣。

 「聖言中文」對句比賽(中三)  每位中三同學為上句「聖言中文」對一下句。五班中各有精彩作品。本科邀得前科主任盧學賢老師作評判，順利選出冠亞季軍及優異獎八名。冠軍作品為「聖言中文，智始於勤」(三戊班王樂燊同學)印於中文科文件夾上。

 中文科文件夾設計比賽(中一及中二)  此設計比賽與藝術發展組合作，同學利用對下句比賽的冠軍得獎對句作為文件夾的一個設計元素。此比賽由所有中文科老師投票選出冠亞季軍及優異獎共八名。冠軍作品(中一丁班姚國尹同學)已於暑假期間製作成文件夾，於新學年頭分發予全校每一位師生和工作人員。

 到校寫作工作坊(中三)  活動於一八年三月進行，由浸會大學派出兩位導師到校，教授十六名中三同學共四次，每次一小時三十分鐘的議論文寫作。是項寫作訓練師生比例高，內容集中，參加同學均專心用功。兩位導師講授認真，教者與學者俱同受益。

 校外寫作比賽  本科一向積極鼓勵同學參加校外寫作比賽，以收切磋砥礪之效。是年共兩位同學分別獲得「第 4 屆 2018 年香港中學生文藝散文即席揮毫大賽」初中組季軍(中三甲班岑樂庭同學)及優異獎(中一甲班連灝同學)，實在可喜可賀。5 月 18 日下午 3:00-4:00 香港中學生文藝月刊記者到校訪問該兩位同學和任教老師。頒獎典禮於 6 月 2 日下午 2:30 至 4:00 假九龍真光中學舉行。訪問報導及同學之得獎作品將刊於雜誌 7,8 月號月刊。

丁、走出課堂，認識中華文化本年度中文周以「認識中樂」為主題。分別舉辦了走馬大觀園——「中樂歷史知識」展覽，希望增進同學對中樂的歷史源流與及基本知識，同時亦舉行「中樂文化常識知多少」問答比賽以鞏固所學；此外活動亦邀請了「新聲樂團」來校表演，

100

並向同學介紹中樂「吹彈拉打」四類樂器的特點。同學反應不俗，特別是表演部份，十分投入。

 初中校外參觀《綿亙萬里——世界遺產絲路》香港歷史博中一一八年二月展覽物館中二鑽石山南蓮園池參觀志蓮靜苑一七年十一月《萬壽載德——清宮帝后誕辰香港歷史博中三一七年九月慶典》展覽物館  任教老師須自行調課，配合活動進行。  中一級同學參觀「綿亙萬里—世界遺產絲綢之路」展覽乃本科與中史科之合作項目。展品包括玉器、絲織品、三彩胡人俑、金銀器、青銅器及大型壁畫等，亦加入了多媒體及互動元素，豐富參觀者的學習體驗。但由於展覽程度較深，中一同學較難掌握，而內容亦未能配合教學進度。  至於中二、中三兩級活動，大部分同學表現投入，留心聆聽導賞介紹。  走出課堂學習對同學來說的確能收擴闊視野之效。不過由於教學時間緊拙，而進行校外參觀來回校園亦耗時，致令參觀時間受限制；加上活動之成功與否端視展覽本身之內容安排是否適切，故在利害取捨之下，來年將決定減少部分校外參觀。

 最後是本科與中史科合作，為高中同學舉辦的「東北三省探索之旅」五天遊學圑。是次活動於 6 月 27 日至 7 月 1 日進行，由王美甄老師、羅美芳老師、魏簡汝婷老師與鄭思愛老師帶領，共 40 位同學參加，行程由青少年海外交流中心承辦。是次活動得到教育局——高中學生交流活動計劃及中華歷史文化獎勵基金的資助，每位同學只須繳付 3614 元團費。行程包括﹕遼寧省博物館、瀋陽故宮、侵華日軍七三一部隊遺址、偽滿皇宮博物館等等，參觀活動順利完成，事後參與的同學均表示對前人的工藝，科技發展，生活文化留下深刻印象。期間已要求參與同學寫下遊學感想，稍後與其他同學分享學習成果。是次探索之旅由於要遷就航班及學校事務，實際只有 3 天半的行程，時間十分緊迫，加上行程需要乘坐高鐵穿梭東北三省，候車需時，以致逗留景點時間不足，同學體會未足深入，故來年如再舉辦遊學團，將詳加考慮此項。

總結本年度本科工作大致順利進行。無可否認的是某些活動進行過程未盡順暢，甚或在活動計劃有未盡妥善，就此本科已作檢討，並設定改善方法，以求在 2018-2019 年度推行計劃時，減少流弊，能更好地達成目標。

9. Implementation Plan Item 4.9

Improving students’ learning approaches

Teachers employed various teaching strategies to facilitate deep learning. For upper forms, one strategy was to show the students some peer models, sharing their strategies and success stories. Language awareness was raised and students were able to understand the language learning processes and how to make improvements. Activities such as short story writing and debating competitions were arranged to enhance deep and achieving learning approaches in the senior forms. English Central, provided by Hong Kong Education City, proved to be a very good platform for students to improve their listening and speaking skills.

Literature was implemented for F.1-3 to encourage critical appreciation of texts, multiple perspectives and cross-curricular links, all of which are essential to deep learning.

Integrated Science Department Annual Report 2017-2018

Review of Implementation Plan

1. Investigation Project and 2. STEM Education F1 students completed 4 worksheets on investigation, 1 investigation project on evapouration of water, and 1 DIY projects of rollback can. There were not much room for additional activities for F2 students this year.

Two STEM lessons were organized by the collaboration of IS department, ICT department and the Chinese University of Hong Kong to promote STEM education. In the lesson, 2B and 2D students learnt to connect sensors to Arduino board to custom-make CO2 sensors to study the respiration of mealworms. In the second lessons, students used conducting ink to draw and test various electric circuits.

The STEM week has been successfully held from 30 April to 5 May 2018. It was jointly organized by the STEM Education committee, Integrated Science department, Physics department, Chemistry department, Biology department, Mathematics department and Computer department. The activities included "Rotational Dynamics" talk, “STEM Lab Open House”, “Paper Plan and Aerobatics” workshop, “Flight Simulator and Pilot Career” seminar, “Robot Competition”, “Crytocurrency” talk, “Genetic Code” book sharing, “Chemical Cell and micro:bit” workshop, “Stephen Hawking and Black Hole” talk and “Book exhibition”. Quite a lot of students joined the activities during lunch time and after school.

It is suggested to allocate more teaching time on STEM activities, or collaborate with other subjects to promote STEM education in the coming academic year.

2. School Tour and Visit The Visit to the Science Museum for all Form 2 students has been held on 26 Jan, 2018. Students formed groups and completed group worksheets, which required them to choose their favourite displays and explain the science principles behind. The group worksheet collected showed that by giving students the tasks, students were motivated to learn and discover more science knowledge.

The F1 school tour has been carried out in March 2018 to let F1 students learn the environmental features in our school, especially the renewable energy sources such as the solar panel and wind turbine. The school tour and follow-up discussion promoted caring of others and the environment, and encouraged self-directed learning among F1 students.

普通話科 2017-2018 年度報告

1. 本年度目標

1.1 同學能有更多聽、說普通話的機會。 1.2 同學能運用合適的普通話詞彙及語氣來表情達意。 1.3 運用資訊科技教學，以提高同學的學習動機。 1.4 鼓勵同學學好漢語拼音，扎實根基，裝備自學能力，為展望未來、挑戰自我、迎接香港與祖國的長足發展作好準備。 1.5 透過各校內及校外的普通話活動，除提升同學的普通話能力外，更可增進同學間的友誼及對學校的歸屬感。 1.6 提升普通話朗誦的訓練與學習效能。 1.7 本年度之關注事項為: a.「關顧愛護」、「提升同學的創意、合作與溝通」: 本科課程一向著重同學們品德情意之培養。對於「尊重」這個課題，各級的課題中亦有照顧到。本年度之電影欣賞為〈背著爸爸上學去〉和〈我來自紐約〉。兩套電影均滿溢對成長的關懷與祝福，讓同學對祖國、紐約及馬來西亞不同的文化、思維、生活有所涉獵，並從中學習以關顧愛護、溝通合作的能度去對待身邊的人和事。欣賞活動會配合口語討論與學期考試進行。 b.「同儕間溝通合作」: 繼續鼓勵同工對課程構思、教學安排、學生問題處理等多作交流。去年本科同工曾參加平板電腦教學之課程講座，為來年之工作做準備。由於平板電腦教學乃本年之教學新嘗試，將須更多有閞方面的專業進修及同儕分享，以提升教學效能。

2. 本年度施行計劃及活動

2.1 主要計劃： 2.1.1 創造普通話語言環境，要求學生在課堂上以普通話作為溝通媒介。 2.1.2 強化漢語拼音的拼讀及拼寫環節，利用練習鞏固，小測評估，讓同學掌握該項基本自學能力。 2.1.3 在中一級課堂進行普通話電影欣賞，以配合本年度關注事項「關顧愛護」、「提升同學的創意、合作與溝通」的教學與情意分享。 2.1.4 為鼓勵同學努力向上，上下學期各以書劵頒發予每班成績最好之同學。 2.1.5 由於本科一向以來教學時間嚴重不足，嘗試以平板電腦輔助教學，藉現代科技幫助精簡教學時間，提升教學節奏與效能。

2.2 普通話科課內活動： 2.2.1 中一至中三級各班配合普通話學會進行班內漢語拼音比賽、廣普對譯比賽等，效果理想。

148

2.2.2 中一全級進行普通話電影欣賞活動，結合課堂討論及口語考試。此活動對推展語言應用能力與高階思維訓練的確有所俾益。 2.2.3 中一至中三級共十五班同學於一七年十一月九日第八節時間於禮堂欣賞到校普通話話劇《歇後嶼山》的演出。此乃語常會及語文基金撥款，由遊劇場主辦之中學巡迴教育劇場，費用全免。是日安排俱見合適，同學與老師都投入其中，反應不俗。劇團於演出完畢後更有與話劇知識內容相關之資料單張分發予同學，望可延展同學們對歇後語的認識與興趣。 ── 對於以上三項主要課內活動，均見正面效益。 ── 若日後再有合適之話劇演出，可再安排參加。

2.3 普通話科課外活動： 2.3.1 校際朗誦節（一七年十至十二月間舉行） ── 本年全校共 12 名同學獲推薦參加校際普通話朗誦比賽。本年度繼續進行校內先拔尖篩選後推荐的參與方式。 ── 成績：亞軍一名(8.3%) 季軍兩名(16.7%) 優良獎狀十二名(100%) 所有參賽同學繼續全數獲得 75 分以上優良獎狀，而且取得名次者有所增加，成續相當滿意。 ── 透過觀摩和練習增長了同學的普通話水平，同時亦有助提升同學的自信。

2.4 普通話學會活動： 2.4.1 週年會員大會日期：二零一七年十月十一日對象：所有會員活動概況：會員互相認識並簡介全年活動。會員數目：總數共 41 名。普通會員 35 名、幹事 6 名。 2.4.2 粵普對譯及拼音比賽日期：二零一八年四月一日至五月一日對象：中一至中三同學活動概況：本次活動得到各普通話科任老師協助，將工作紙在課堂上分發給予每一位同學，因此本次的活動參與人數為全部中一至中三同學，超過 500 人。通過是次活動，了解到同學們對於基本的粵語、普通話之間的詞匯轉換均表現良好。本次活動原定於下學期開學階段舉行，因為工作紙需要經過反覆設計、多次修改、校閱，故學會將舉行時間推遲到四月。 ── 建議往後的活動盡量提前準備，以免一延再延。 ── 是次活動的成功，實有賴普通話科任老師的協助。由於工作紙經老師於課堂時間派發，大大提升活動的參與率，即提升了同學們對普通話的接觸。故建議將來亦沿用此做法。

149

2.4.3 普通話歌唱比賽（初賽）日期：五月十日對象：參與初賽同學活動概況：活動參加人數熱烈。獨唱組別有 26 人；合唱組別則有 9 隊參加初賽。最後獨唱組選出 12 人；小組合唱則選出 6 隊進入複賽。 2.4.4 普通話歌唱比賽（複賽）日期：五月十六日對象：參與複賽同學活動概況：最後獨唱組選出 6 人；小組合唱則選出 4 隊進入決賽。 2.4.5 普通話歌唱比賽(決賽) 日期：六月二十九日(綵排)七月三日(試後活動比賽) 對象：中三至中五同學活動概況：活動於禮堂舉行。是次邀得麥穎怡老師、余卓勳老師、許瑧怡老師擔任評判，順利選出獨唱及合唱組別的冠亞季軍。一如以往，活動獲得音樂學會、舞台管理學會、攝影學會、聖言電台鼎力協助，讓各位參與同學在緊張的學期考試之後可以好好享受一年一度的普通話歌唱比賽。此外，為了有效與各位參賽者以及工作人員聯繫，普通話學會開了一個 WhatsApp 群組。此群組的設立確能大大提升辦事效率，建議往後的幹事也可以參照這個方法。又為了確保普通話歌唱比賽的進行，本年度普通話學會在選歌的環節上設定了時間限制，防止有參賽者在最後時刻更改演唱的歌曲，此舉也能確保普通話歌唱比賽的順利進行。

3. 評估： 3.1 對於本年度之評估方式，各老師均感滿意；至於課堂小測，明顯有助提升同學對本科學習的重視，來年當予繼續。 3.2 成績方面，各級表現理想。態度散慢的同學比去年有所減少。

4. 財政報告: 教具(視聽器材及平板電腦)及教師參考書 $16608.00 校際朗誦節報名費(12 人 x 120 元) $1440.00 網上教材 $252.00 活動、比賽獎品 $1090.00 雜項及損耗物資 $363.40 影印及油印 $221.06

Language Across Curriculum Committee Annual Report 2017-2018

Evaluation of the Implementation Plan:

Item 4.1 Creating a language rich environment through cross-curricular activities

1. The English Room was opened to all students every school day at lunch time. Students met with Ms Bulley, on Mondays and Wednesdays, and Mr Yeung, on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Members of the English Club organized activities on Fridays. Students watched DVDs, played language games and chatted with the teachers. Many students became regular visitors and enjoyed learning English in a relaxed way.

2. A lunch concert was held on 14th March in the School Hall. Teachers of different subjects, Mr Wong, Mr Yung, Ms Ho and Mr Yu, performed for the students. Lyrics were shown on power point slides and some literary devices were highlighted. The activity was very well-received, attracting more than 500 students and teachers.

3. The technical problems of the radio broadcast system were finally resolved and five programmes were produced. It was hoped that the programmes could reach a larger audience in the next academic year.

4. A book exhibition displaying books across the curriculum was held on 13th and 14th March in the School Hall. All the students were arranged to visit the exhibition during lesson time with their teachers and many visited the exhibition again at recess and after school.

5. Instead of the vocabulary quiz, an inter-class singing competition was organized for all F.3 students after school during the Aesthetic Week. The competition was a success as all the students, both contestants and audience, were fully engaged even though it was held after school.

6. Selected DVDs were shown to the students when their subject teachers were absent. This measure provided the students with extra English language input of different subjects, creating a language rich environment. To avoid viewing the same materials, a new format was suggested in the academic meeting. Materials from the Internet would be adopted in the next academic year, with consideration not only of the content but also duration and level of interest and difficulty.

158

7. English names were added to the master seating plan for class teachers’ reference, enhancing an English environment in school.

Item 4.2 Strengthening students’ language skills through different subject areas

1. The Bridging programme for Form One students was conducted at the beginning of September by the English teachers. The handbook for the Bridging Programme in 2017-2018 included topics such as getting to know the school, classroom language, language outside the classroom, giving presentations, discussion language, vocabulary building,etc. The programme was well-received and feedback from the teachers showed the contents included were practical and useful in helping new F1 students adapt to the English environment.

2. Each department had different language concerns for their own subject. Teaching plans focusing on language aspects such as correct spelling and essay writing skills were implemented by the subject departments. Through teaching the vocabulary and genres specific to their own subjects, the teachers ensured that the students learnt to present their ideas effectively.

3. On-line reading programmes offered by Wiseman Education were arranged for F.1 to F.4 students in the past year. They provided regular reading input and vocabulary was learned in context. The majority of the students agreed that the programme could help them improve their English and the topics and exercises were useful. The completion rate for most of the classes in the lower forms was satisfactory. For senior forms, there were more diversities in completing the work on a regular basis. Five students captured the High Distinction Award and eight students won the Distinction Award.

4. An optional online cross-curricular learning platform run by iLearner was open to F2 to F6 students in the past year. 113 students subscribed to it. The students found the materials useful and relevant to their needs but they needed to be reminded to complete the work from time to time.

5. A Marine Biology and Science Study Tour to Perth was organised by our NET with Eventus Study Tours Ltd. during the Chinese New Year Holiday. The twenty participants from F3 to F5 all benefited a lot from this new experience.

159

Item 4.3 Providing language support for teachers using EMI

1. It was a common practice of the subject teachers to seek language support on grammar, usage and pronunciation from our NET and the English team when they came across problems in English.

2. Materials for professional development regarding language skills and subject-based books and DVDs were placed in the English Resource Bank in the Annex Staffroom for teachers’ easy access.

Item 4.4 Facilitating collaboration between the English Department and other departments.

1. The subject departments bought some DVDs and books relevant to their subjects and teachers made use of these resources for teaching and professional development.

2. Subject heads developed teaching materials and lesson plans with emphasis on using English as a medium of instruction.

Library Annual Report 2017-2018

1. Evaluation 1.1 The Library has established a computerised system and students can renew, reserve and search for information of the library titles at home. The total number of book checkouts was 12,618 this school year and the daily average issue rate was 82, the same as that of the last school year.

1.2 The books of English Extensive Reading Scheme and Chinese Extensive Reading Scheme have been shelved and catalogued in the Library. There were altogether 2,896 books and 265 sets of DVD’s. The loan rate of these kinds of materials was 1,632 in this year. Some language teachers would bring students to the Library to borrow books of these two schemes during their lessons. This has allowed students more time to choose books and could increase the number of book checkouts.

1.3 PTA Corner The materials purchased by the PTA were placed under the subject name counseling. The borrowing procedure was the same as that for the other books and the issue rate was 19 this year. Materials for PTA are as follows:  Books: 218 titles  CD’s: 6 sets  Tapes: 9 sets  VCD’s: 10 sets

1.4 VCD and DVD There are 368 sets of VCD’s and 378 sets of DVD’s of popular motion pictures, science, arts, PE, Chinese culture and so on in the library stock. Apart from helping encourage and attract students to make use of the Library, it also helped students practise their listening of the English language as most of the VCD’s and DVD’s are of the English version. When compared with books, English-version VCD’s and DVD’s are easier to attract students to learn English.

1.5 Reading Award Scheme To encourage more students to join this scheme, the Library has organised the Library Reading Award Scheme with the English Department and the Chinese Department. The scheme was divided into two parts. The first part was from 1st November, 2017 to 8th December, 2017 whereas the second part was from 1st March, 2018 to 18th April, 2018. The participants who had taken part in the reading award scheme could enter the record into the challenge programme. The number of participants and entries in the first term this school year were more or less the same as in the last year. There were fewer participants in the second term when compared with the figure of the last year, mainly because some entries of the last year were assigned by several language teachers.

Form 2 Project Work (GAP) Annual report 2017-2018

1. New F2 GAP Curriculum To facilitate STEM education, the new F2 GAP curriculum was introduced. In one term of the school year, students learnt how to use and program micro-controller, design 3D model, use 3D printer and laser cutter. They applied these skills in a design and make project. In the other term of the school year, students learnt how to conduct a project. Students showed great interests in learning and using these advanced technology to design and made their own products. Some students applied these skills in competitions, such as 3D print the casing of their robots. Students learnt the skills in preparing a project such as setting a theme, designing a questionnaire, conducting a presentation and so on. These skills were found to be very useful in their self learning. This could give them a better foundation in preparing for their senior secondary curriculum.

2. Cross-discipline STEM Activities in GAP Lessons Two STEM lessons were organized by the collaboration of IS department, ICT department and the Chinese University of Hong Kong to promote STEM education. In the first lesson, F2 students learnt to connect sensors to Arduino board and make a carbon dioxide sensor to study the respiration of mealworms. In the second lesson, students used conducting ink to draw and test various electric circuits. The students found the curriculum interesting and some of them performed well and achieved awards in the competitions outside school.

3. Project Learning In order to promote students’ creativity, collaboration and communication (3C), the students had to create and design their own projects. Through collaboration and communication with others, they prepared a project and gave oral presentation in class. All projects were found to be good. Social skills and collaboration skills were greatly improved.

Environmental Education Committee Annual Report 2017-2018

1. Review of implementation plan

1.1 Environmental Prefects, Monitors and Ambassadors There were 52 environmental prefects (F.3-F.5) and 30 environmental monitors (F.1-F.6) serving our school in the school year. They were responsible for the cleanliness in the school campus and the monitoring of the energy use in the classrooms. The cleanliness condition in the campus was improved. Some environmental prefects also helped in introducing the environmental facilities to their fellow schoolmates, parents, alumni and guests on many occasions such as the F.1 Info Day and the F.1 Orientation Day, etc. In addition, they helped in the food waste collection and composting. Their performance was found to be excellent.

There was one environmental monitor in each class. A new set of passwords was given to the monitors. They checked the heat index from Sing Yin Weather Station every two periods. When the heat index was 25.5oC or above, or the relative humidity was over 95%, they might switch on the air-conditioners. The environmental monitors had to take an oath in front of their classes. This action could improve their sense of responsibility.

Under the Environmental Ambassador Scheme, At least 3 students of each class (F.1-F.3) were recruited as environmental ambassadors. There was a total of 87 ambassadors this year. Different activities were organized for them to participate throughout the year in order to raise their environmental awareness e.g. green workshops and ecotours. Environmental ambassadors were asked to keep records of the green activities that they have joined. Badges were given to those who had participated in at least two green activities in a school year and would continue to join the Scheme. Awards will be given to those whose participation rate is high in the New School-Year Prize Presentation in September 2018.

1.2 Students’ participation in keeping the cleanliness and tidiness of the classroom Students-on-duty stayed in the classrooms to sweep the floor and tidy up the desks and chairs after school. The environmental monitors supervised their works. The policy of recording the cleanliness of the classrooms by the janitors was carried on and a new form was designed for them to take records more clearly. From the reports of the janitors, few classes were untidy and dirty. This year, one ‘classroom cleanliness campaign’ was held in each term (in November 2017 and May 2018) and the records were made known to the class teachers and remedial actions were taken. None of the classrooms were found to be dirty

186

(below standard) in the first term but three of them were dirty in the second term. Prizes were given to the cleanest classes and class teachers of the three dirty classes were asked to remind their students about the importance of classroom cleanliness and tidiness.

1.3 Ambassador Scheme Students were nominated to receive awards in the Student Environmental Protection Ambassador Scheme organized by the Environmental Campaign Committee (Gold Award: 5E Lam Ka Ho; Silver Award: 4C Wong Tsz Ho; Bronze Award: 5B Chan Hiu Lok) and 20 other environmental prefects, monitors, and committee members of the Environmental Protection Club were nominated for merit prizes.

1.4 Reducing food waste The tuckshop was cooperative in helping us to reduce food waste by providing food to students according to how much they choose to eat during lunch time. Students and teachers were encouraged to cherish food and reduce food waste. All the food waste collected was decomposed in the food waste treatment machine to make compost and used as fertilizers in our campus to grow plants.

1.5 Recycling competition and activities An inter-class competition on the recycling of waste plastic bottles, metal cans and some other products was held in May 2018. The Environmental Protection Club officials and environmental prefects organized the competition and a prize was awarded to the winner (5E class) of the competition.

1.6 Environmental Projects Our school participated in ‘No Air Con Night 2017’ on 29th to 30th September. Over 50% of the teachers, staff and students joined the activity and a certificate of appreciation was given to us by the Green Sense. Besides, we also joined the activity ‘Earth Hour 2018’ organized by WWF on 24th March to promote energy saving and participated in ‘No Plastic Bottle Day 2018’ on 1st June. No plastic bottle water was sold at our school.

Our students helped in a research under an environmental vulnerability project of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University which was led by one of our old boys at the Department of Land Surveying and Geo-Informatics. Our students completed a questionnaire about air pollution awareness and the data was analysed.

Our principal organized a field trip for environmental prefects to Quarry Bay Tree Walk in November 2017 to enhance their knowledge on trees and the natural ecosystem.

187

Our school signed the ‘Energy Saving Charter 2017’ and pledged to maintain average indoor air temperature between 24 – 26℃ during the summer months of June to September in 2017, to switch off electrical appliances when not in use from June 2017 to May 2018 and to procure energy efficient appliances from June 2017 to May 2018. Some environmental prefects also joined the ambassador scheme organized by the World Green Organization which carried out a survey about the consumption of electricity at the school campus.

Instead of the Environmental Protection Week, four days in May 2018 were set as Green Thursdays. Various activities were organized to raise the environmental awareness of the students: In the teacher-student low-carbon cooking competition held in the Home Management Room, 7 groups of teachers and students cooked with great fun and the message of low-carbon cooking was well delivered. The inter-class quiz competition was held 3rd , 10th, 17th , 24th May 2018 Core activities: i. Bartering activity (before morning assembly, during lunch & after school) ii. Waste (plastic bottles, metal cans, etc.) recycling competition iii. Board display about waste recycling 3rd May: i. Green games (during lunch) ii. Visit to Kwun Tong Community Green Station (after school) 10th May: i. Green workshop (during lunch) ii.Visit to Green Hub (after lunch) 17th May: i.

Teacher-student low-carbon cooking competition (after school) successfully at the playground. Most students enjoyed the activity. The visit to the Green Hub did not meet our expectations and the cost was too high. However, the visit and the ecotour organized by the CUHK Museum of Climate Change was quite good and the students found it fruitful.

A new organic farm was set up in the school campus. F.1 Environmental monitors and some other F.1 students were responsible to grow plants and take care of them on a class-basis. The activity has aroused the interest of the students in planting and most importantly, through the activity, they learnt to appreciate life and the nature and to take action to protect the environment. Besides, a tortoise house was also built to accommodate a leopard tortoise adopted from the Hong Kong Society of Herpetology Foundation and some students were trained to feed and take care of it. 188

An entire house of the Festival Grand Cinema at Kowloon Tong was reserved for F.5 and F.6 Geography students, some Environmental Prefects and committee members of the Environmental Protection Club to watch the documentary called ‘An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth To Power’ on 13th October 2017. Students learnt more about global climate change and how to combat it.

A green promotional game stall was set up by our environmental prefects at the HK Flower Show 2018 in Victoria Park on 18th March. The stall was designed to promote environmental awareness and it attracted many citizens.

A trial project on the ‘Recycling and Reuse of Barbecue Forks at school campus’ was carried out. Class teachers and environmental monitors were taught how to clean the forks properly after use and to place them inside large buckets under the main staircase. The project will be continued and the ways to store the BBQ forks will be improved.

A new set of Automatic Weather Station measuring instruments was installed on the school roof to replace the old damaged one by Cheung Hing Electronic & Electrical Eng. Co., Ltd. in December 2017 and the weather data of our school has been uploaded to the co-win server of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University.

1.7 Introducing our environmental measures and facilities This year, we welcomed a lot of guests including parents, alumni, teachers, students of other schools and the general public to visit our campus. All the guests were amazed by our wonderful and comprehensive environmental features. They also appreciated the performance of our student helpers. The environmental awareness was greatly promoted.  We arranged campus tours for the visitors and the parents of F.1 students on the F.1 Info Day (2nd December 2017) and F.1 Orientation Day (28th August 2018) respectively.  We conducted F.1 school tours in IS lessons to teach students about renewable energy.  On 22nd March 2018, 10 teachers and students from ECF Saint Too Canaan College visited our school to learn more about our environmental features. Besides, our principal, Mr. Wong also welcomed visitors from different sectors and introduced our environmental features to them in the school year. They included:  2 staff members from the Greenpeace  2 post-graduates from the University of Hong Kong  10 officers from the Vocational Training Council

189

 15 principals and teachers from Tak Oi Secondary School  30 principals from high schools of Mainland China  20 principals from primary schools of Hong Kong  50 teachers and students from other secondary schools of Hong Kong

 On 21st July 2018, a school visit was jointly organized with the Fanling Environmental Resource Centre. This visit was open to the residents in New Territories North and the number of participants was 15 (age range: 1 to 50 years old). Our environmental prefects not only organized a guided school tour to the visitors, but also set up some interesting game stalls in the Geography Room to promote the importance of environmental conservation. The visitors were given some organic fertilizers from our food waste treatment machine and seeds as souvenirs. The event was very successful.

1.8 Addressing the School’s major concerns Different green activities were organized for students throughout the year to cultivate their caring and love for others and the natural environment. Environmental prefects, monitors and ambassadors were encouraged to participate in various ambassador schemes and competitions related to environmental conservation to promote their creativity, collaboration and communication. They also had the opportunities to organize different green activities for their schoolmates. Besides, our Committee collaborated with other departments and interest clubs (e.g. Geography / Biology / Integrated Science Department / Gardening Club, etc.) in organizing some green activities and regular meetings were held for self-evaluation.

1.9 Promotion of environmental education through joining competitions, partnership schemes and various programmes Our school received a Certificate of Merit under the 2017 Hong Kong Awards for Environmental Excellence – Schools (Secondary) from the Environmental Campaign Committee in recognition of the great efforts our school has exerted in promoting environmental practices and management. Besides, our school has also been recognised as a Hong Kong Green Organisation (2018-2020). We have joined the ‘Happy Green Schools’ Label Programme organized by the HK Electric since 2015 and we are given the 3-star Happy Green School Label. A field trip to Aberdeen Country Park was organized under this programme and about 25 students participated in the activity to learn more about ecology. Besides, we have also joined the CUHK Jockey Club Carbon Reduction Partnership Scheme under which an ecotour in CUHK was organized for some F.3 students.

190

Our school joined the Environmental Education Programme organized by the Kwun Tong Community Green Station. Under this programme, our environmental prefects and ambassadors participated in a great variety of activities related to waste reduction and recycling throughout the year. These activities included talks, games and waste upcycling workshops held in November and December 2017, March and May 2018. Our students learnt more about environmental conservation and green life style in all these activities.

A F.5C student, So Chi Fai, won the Second runner-up award in the secondary school category of the ‘Dump Less, Save More’ short video competition organized by the Environmental Campaign Committee.

Our school joined the programme ‘My Pledge to Act 2017 – to Live a Healthy and Green Life’ promoted by the Education Bureau and has implemented various green subject activities, co-curricular activities and cross-curricular learning experiences in the school year.

Extra-curricular Activities Department Annual Report 2017-2018

1. Review of Implementation Plan

1.1 A leadership training session was run on 21 August 2017 to prepare the F5 students to take up leadership roles in ECA clubs. F5 students were given guidance on how to prepare running a club. Students who wanted to run a club wrote and submitted a proposal plan to the club advisers. The students were active and the questions they raised reflected their concern and sense of responsibilities in running the ECA activities.

With the support from school, it was observed that many students were happy to stay behind to participate in variety of after-school activities.

There were 62 ECA clubs catering for different interest of students, allowing a good proportion of F5 students to develop their leadership potentials. No new clubs had been added this year. Club officials cooperated well with each other and organized meaningful activities for club members from September to May. Most of the reports by club chairmen were submitted in June.

1.2 The ECA Policy was implemented and reviewed.

A Club Advisers’ Meeting was conducted on 11 September 2017 to review the activities carried out in the previous school year and to discuss the issues to be addressed in the current school year.

An evaluation meeting was conducted on 25 May 2018. Club Chairmen reviewed and evaluated their performance. Data was collected and Club Advisers would use the data as one of the reference points to decide whether they would nominate their club chairman for an outstanding service award in the coming Prize Giving Day.

1.3 Club Expo and Recruitment Days took place at lunch time (1:25 –1:50 p.m.) on 26-27 September. It was successfully run.

192

Advisory Committee of Students’ Association Annual Report 2017-2018

1. SA election 17-18  There were 3 proposed cabinets in the year 2017-18. (1) Liu Tsz Fung (Ignitor) (2) Tsang Wai Lok (Avalon) (3) Chan Tai Ming (Delta)

 831 out of 1000 students voted. The voter turnout rate was 83%. The voter turnout rates in the past three years were 85% (16-17), 88%(15-16) and 83%(14-15). The number of valid votes this year was 813.

 The turnout rates in each form are listed below. Numbers in brackets are last year’s rates. Form F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 F6 % 77 78 81 83 93 86 (78) (77) (81) (88) (97) (91)

 The distribution of votes is as follows: 1st round 2nd round Total (1) Liu Tsz Fung (Ignitor) 387 64 451 (2) Tsang Wai Lok (Avalon) 163 - - (3) Chan Tai Ming (Delta) 228 56 284 Abstain / Exhausted votes 35 43 Invalid votes 18 Liu Tsz Fung and his cabinet (Ignitor) won the election with 451 votes.

2. In the Teacher Commendation Scheme, 4 teachers were nominated by students. About 150 students casted their votes on 15/12/2017. Mr. Tsang Yin Chi (67 votes) was elected by the students as “the most Creative teacher”.

207

3. Major functions held by the students‘ association in the school year:  Conspiracy (joint school activity with St. Catharine’s School for Girls)  Christmas variety show  Joint-school Christmas Ball (with Tak Oi Secondary School and Po Leung Kuk Ngan Po Ling College)  City Tracing (with Tak Nga Secondary School)  Second-hand books selling  Teacher-and-students week (also invited SVD Fathers)  Pen-friend Programme (with St. Catharine’s School for Girls)  Graduation Class Run

4. On the Dress Casual Day on 11/10/2017, the SA had raised a total amount of $10,174.40. (last year: $9,358.40)

5. On the Blood Donation Day on 13/11/2017, a total of 63 students and staff donated blood. (last year:44) The Blood Donation Day was held earlier than before so that F6 students could also join. This explained the significant increase in the number of donors this year.

6. A steward was found to have stolen some money from the cash box of SA for several times. The case has been reported to the Principal on 19/12/2017. After this incidence, we had revised the guidelines of handling cash in the SA office.

7. The stock taking and sales records of SA made by the students were not quite complete. Therefore, while producing the yearly financial report, the treasurer found it difficult to chase back some of the financial items. We would reiterate the importance of making a complete record to the students in the coming years. A barcode scanner was installed in SA office to facilitate the process.

8. In order to ease the workload of SA and to be more environmentally friendly, we stopped selling bottled water in SA. We also suggested the school to examine the quality of water from all drinking fountains in schools. After fixing some water pipes, all the water samples were proven to be safe to drink according to the Quality Water Supply Scheme for Buildings – Fresh Water (Plus) by the Water Supplies Department.

健康及安全組 2017- 2018 年度報告

I. 本年度舉行的活動及其評估方法

1. 培養學生良好衛生習慣環保風紀員積極巡視校園，經常提示同學保持校園衛生，午飯時段在飲水機附近學生遺留垃圾問題，已經有所改善。

2. 加強學生健康及衛生常識。在全年的體育課節中，紀錄全校學生心跳率、血壓、脂肪率及體質指數 (BMI)，使學生更能認識自己身體狀況，同時指出高血壓的成因、壞處以及預防方法。另外為全校學生量度腰臀比例，以一種簡單指標，認識自己身體狀況。學生可利用各項身體體質指數，與往年數值比較，暸解體質有否改善。而衛生署給予本校學生超重比率統計為 18.9%，與全港平均數 19.9%相若。在二Ｏ一八年二月初，香港路德會社會服務處路德會青怡中心到校為學生舉辦預防濫用藥物教育活動，加強學生對濫藥禍害的認知。在六月二十八日邀請專業營養師到校，為中一及中二學生舉辦良好生活習慣及健康飲食講座，增加學生健康知識，培養良好健康習慣。

3. 培養學生養成經常運動的習慣繼續參加由教育統籌局舉辦之學校體適能獎勵計劃活動，測試及記錄學生體適能狀況，包括九分鐘跑、掌上壓、仰臥起坐、坐姿體前彎及脂肪率。體育科老師在課堂中教導及鼓勵學生多使用健身室器材，以改善體質及體能。另在下學期測試及記錄學生一千五米跑成績，以協助體育科老師瞭解學生心肺體能情況。上年開始舉辦的花式跳繩訓練班，今年有十六位中一至中五同學參加，他們在今年的頒獎典禮中作表演，而表演得到多方面讚賞。在七月舉行的花式跳繩公開賽中，獲得多個獎項。何世炳老師及健康及體適能學會幹事帶領，繼續每個星期五放學後進行健身跑，培養恆常運動習慣。武術訓練班招收了十四名會員，人數較往年多，而出席率亦較佳。下學期亦增加了第二期訓練班。

209

4. 增強學生運動靈巧性及反應於九月中，參加由啟勵扶青會舉辦之「恐懼不再，成功在望」計劃，招收到二十名中一至中五學生，參加為期十三課共二十小時之雜技訓練。內容包括花式拋球、轉碟及扯鈴。七個雜技訓練班學員在三月中，參加了 2018 啟勵雜耍大賽，獲得創意大獎，成績良好。

II. 總評全部工作計劃都能順利完成，同學在各項活動中感到興趣，表現亦理想，花式跳繩隊學員表現良好，勤奮練習，獲多個獎項，值得嘉許。新學期將會繼續推廣。而各項活動的成功及能順利完或，有賴各位教師的努力及認真態度。

Social Service Coordinating Committee Annual Report 2017-2018

Last year, our students helped raise a total of $15,265.4 through taking part in various fund-raising activities. For example, they joined Dress Casual Day 2017 to enhance the social welfare services supported by The Community Chest of Hong Kong. The students also helped sell raffle tickets for Caritas Hong Kong for The Community Chest.

Our School’s service clubs, namely the Community Service Group and Community Youth Club and Sing Yin Pioneers have been organizing service for people in need and in the district. For instance, the students helped out at Hong Chi Morninghill School, Tsui Lam, organizing activities for and taking care of some mentally and physically challenged children. They also joined hands with Hong Kong Down Syndrome Association, organizing activities for their members. At the same time, they helped provide tutoring service to the students in Buddhist Chi King Primary School on weekdays. Boxes of gifts from staff and students were collected and donated to the Hong Kong Church Network for the Poor. They were then distributed to the underprivileged families in Hong Kong. Some students showed their concern to the elderly by paying visits to old people’s homes like China Coast Community and the elderly who are living alone in the district. The school’s Catholic Society also helped in running stalls in Caritas Bazaar 2017 and providing services for the elderly in the community.

To promote volunteering, we joined ‘Heart to Heart Programme’ organized by the Hong Kong Federation of Youth Groups, promising to offer at least 2000 hours of service a year in 2006. It was our 12th year of participation.

In view of the requirements of Student Learning Profile, we counted the service hours for inside school services. It was decided that each student should have six hours of service as a duty boy. The total hours of service were 61,876, with an average of 62 hours per person.

In regard to students’ participation in voluntary service outside school, last year, 305 students from Form One to Form Six were involved and the total number of service hours, which included the time spent in planning, direct service and evaluation was 7,770, with an average of 25.5 hours per person. Students who committed themselves in volunteering to serve the society would be nominated for Wong Chun Wah Social Service Scholarship. For school year 2016-2017, Lau Hok Hin (4A), Tang Wing Cheung (4E), Yuen Wai Kit (4D) and Chan Ho Fung (5E) received the scholarship.

Stem Education Committee Annual Report 2017-2018

1. Setup Maker Space The maker space has been setup in IS Laboratory 2 (508). A laser cutter, three 3D printers and various tools were purchased. 2 desktop and 6 laptop computers were setup. A resource corner with books, magazines and reference materials were setup. Some student works were displayed in the showcase.

The maker space was used frequently for teaching activities, preparation of robotics, science projects and STEM competitions. Some students started their own projects and made their products using the equipment in the maker space.

2. New F2 GAP Curriculum To facilitate STEM education, the new F2 GAP curriculum was introduced. Students learnt to use and program micro-controller, design 3D model, use 3D printer and laser cutter. They applied these skills in a design to make products.

Students showed great interests in learning and using these advanced technology to design and make their own products. Some students applied these skills in competitions, such as 3D print the casing of their robots.

3. Update Junior CL Curriculum The junior computer literacy curriculum has been updated to support F2 GAP curriculum and prepare for STEM activities. F2 students learnt to use and program micro:bit to complete simple tasks. They were allowed to borrow micro:bit home for learning.

Students were interested to play and program with micro:bit. This was also a good way to learn programming.

4. Student Training Training courses and workshops were organized by the computer club and design and technology club, including programming training, mobile app development, robotics (mBot), micro-controller (micro:bit), 3D modelling and printing and laser cutting.

These courses and workshops introduced STEM skills and advanced technology to all students, including those who did not have the chance to learn them in F2 GAP lessons.

221

5. Teacher Training The students training courses were also open for teachers to join. Some teachers joined the laser cutting course and used the laser cutter in their own club activities.

More efforts would be made to promote the use of new equipment among teachers.

6. STEM Week The STEM Week was held from 30 April to 5 May 2018. It was jointly organized by the STEM Education committee, Integrated Science department, Physics department, Chemistry department, Biology department, Mathematics department and Computer Studies department. The activities included "Rotational Dynamics" talk, “STEM Lab Open House”, “Paper Plan and Aerobatics” workshop, “Flight Simulator and Pilot Career” seminar, “Robot Competition”, “Crytocurrency” talk, “Genetic Code” book sharing, “Chemical Cell and micro:bit” workshop, “Stephen Hawking and Black Hole” talk and “Book exhibition”.

The STEM Week was a great success this year. A lot of students joined the activities during lunch time and after school. Many students visited the STEM Lab during the “STEM Lab Open House” and realized that the room and the new equipment were available for students to book and use. The talk “Stephen Hawking and Black Hole” given by Dr. Tong Shiu Sing attracted more than one hundred teachers and students from both our school and other schools to attend.

7. STEM Activities Two STEM lessons were organized by the collaboration of IS department, ICT department and the Chinese University of Hong Kong to promote STEM education. In the first lesson, F2 students learnt to connect sensors to Arduino board and make a carbon dioxide sensor to study the respiration of mealworms. In the second lesson, students used conducting ink to draw and test various electric circuits.

In March, an exhibition of students’ works was organized by the Visual Arts department, Photography Club, Sing Yin TV and Design and Technology Club. In the STEM corners, a lot of students’ works were displayed, including 3D printed models, laser-cut models, bridge models, inventions and robots.

In July, 20 students were selected to participated in the “Creative Thinking and Arduino Course” provided by Edvenue and learnt about creative thinking skills, intelligent house,
