F.1 Induction Day Camp 2019-2020

On 26th August 2019, we held our F.1 Induction Day Camp for the new batch of F.1 students. Early in the morning, they gathered in the classrooms with their classmates, future form teachers and Big Brothers (current senior students) to get acquaintance with each others.

Following a warm up session, they engaged in challenging team building activities in the school hall. They had lunch together in school.

In the afternoon, the new boys were excited to explore the school campus in a Treasure Hunt. During the meaningful sharing by F.2 students and Big Brothers, the F.1 students found it useful and interesting for them to adapt the new learning environment. After a day of adventuring and overcoming challenges together, the Big Brothers established a relationship of trust with their younger brothers. All the participants left the school with endearing memories of the first day they spent in school together.

A Day Shadowing a Pharmacist

As a part of our career planning program collaborated with the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce, one of our students, Chung Ching Nam of F. 5D, was chosen to shadow a professional in his routine work as a pharmacist on 28th July 2019. Together with another student, Ching Nam had an eye-opening experience spending an afternoon in a pharmacy observing how it was operated. The school will continue to offer similar kind of professional exposure to our students to prepare them to enter the work force in the future.

F.1 Summer Bridging Course 2019

The Form 1 Summer Bridging Course 2019 began on 17th July 2019. The 8-day course, taught by Native English Teachers and our Form 6 graduates, was tailor-made with an aim to accustom the newly admitted Form 1 boys to the English learning environment and school life in St. Francis Xavier’s College.

During the course, the boys not only learned different academic subjects using English as the medium of instruction, but also experienced our school life first hand, including saying the Prayer together at the Morning Assembly.
