KEY PROGRAMMES
Chinese Reading Programme
The Chinese Reading Programme aims to cultivate pupils’ interest in reading and expose them to books of different genres. Pupils will buy a Chinese story book at the beginning of the year (order by the school, pay with Edusave). Pupils will exchange story books with classmates weekly or fortnightly. They have to record the titles of the books read on the reading card issued. In order to motivate them to read more books, prizes will be given to pupils who meet the reading targets at the end of Term 1, Term 2 & Term 3.
Parents can help to ensure that your child take good care of the books & encourage them by reading with them.
Immersion Programme
As part of the school’s internationalisation programme, the CL Dept will be organising an overseas Immersion Trip for selected Primary 5 pupils.
The aim of the programme is to stimulate and enhance the pupils’ interest in the learning of Chinese Language and culture as well as provide an opportunity for the pupils to learn to be independent. The programme includes the immersion programme at local schools, cultural enrichment activities and visits to Chinese Heritage site.
