English learning came to life on the streets of Wan Chai! On 23 October 2026, our new Native-speaking English Teacher (NET), Mr. Oscar, led 11 F.4 and F.5 students, most of whom were English Ambassadors, on the “Wan Chai Haunted Tour” organised by St. James’ Settlement at the Blue House.

Led by a professional docent, the boys explored the district from Southern Playground to Nam Koo Terrace, passing East Town Building, St. Francis Street and the Sun Street, Moon Street and Star Street area along the way.

Through the docent’s lively storytelling in English, students discovered local beliefs, folk tales and urban legends while learning about the history and character of Wan Chai.

The tour gave our boys a valuable opportunity to experience English beyond the classroom, build their confidence in using the language in real-life settings, and develop a deeper appreciation of Hong Kong’s local history, culture and heritage.

Our school recently arranged for 10 of our boys to take part in a joint-school study tour as part of a Guangdong–Hong Kong exchange programme organized by the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce (香港中華總商會) from 17-19, September. Through site visits and guided learning activities, students broadened their horizons and deepened their understanding of national development and opportunities in the Greater Bay Area (GBA).

During the tour, students visited a range of venues including planning and exhibition centres, cultural facilities, universities and innovative enterprises. The experience helped them appreciate the integration of tradition and industrial innovation, while learning about the latest developments in green technology and artificial intelligence (AI), as well as the role of digitalisation in modern cities. Students also engaged in meaningful exchange with peers from other schools through group activities and visits, strengthening communication skills and building new friendships.

The exchange programme was drawn to a successful close with a sharing and reflection session on 9 Oct 2026 (Friday) during when participants from all schools took turns to present their key takeaways from the tour and highlight memorable moments.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank the organizer and other participating schools for their thoughtful arrangements, kind assistance and warm hospitality to our boys.

On 5 October 2026 (Monday), all our boys took turns in the afternoon to pay an educational visit to the National Security Exhibition Gallery at the Hong Kong Museum of History.

Through the 30-minute guided tours led by museum docents, our boys explored the exhibition displays and gained a clearer understanding of the meaning and importance of national security, as well as its close connection with society and daily life. They also reflected on the responsibilities of citizens in safeguarding national security, and the importance of being law-abiding, thoughtful and responsible in their words and actions. The visit provided a valuable opportunity for students to connect classroom learning with authentic real-life contexts.

We hope that this experience will encourage our boys to continue broadening their horizons, deepen their civic awareness, and put what they have learnt into practice as responsible members of the community.
