Bridging Activities
1. To help new Primary One students adapt to campus life and consolidate their learning foundations, our school holds multiple bridging activities to systematically support students in the transition to Primary One. The activities include English and STEM classes, bridging classes for Primary One, a ceremony to mark the start of Primary One, a parent day for Primary One, homework coaching from Primary One to Primary Six, after-school care services, and mentorship programs from older students.
2. To assist students who enroll in English-medium instruction classes to adapt to learning Mathematics, Science, Technology, and Engineering subjects in English, our school holds English bridging classes during the summer vacation to enhance students' ability to learn in English.
Goals
1. Assist kindergarten students in adapting to Primary One curriculum and campus life.
2. Establish classroom routines.
