The school is committed to creating different contexts to provide students with opportunities for self-determination, such as student representative meetings, happy days of choices, "I have the SAY" and refreshments of their choice so that students can feel "respected". The school also strives to create a positive environment by displaying positive messages about IE at different locations in the school and posting "the shining aspects of students" outside classrooms. We also organise various activities such as the "Happy Jukebox" to promote a caring culture. Environmental EducationOur healing garden stimulates students' five senses with its rich variety and diversity of plants, which change with the seasons to give students a different experience every time they visit the garden. Through the different forms of gardening activities, students are able to explore herbs, flowers, fruits and other plants, as well as planting, fertilising and maintaining the garden, thus enhancing their knowledge of planting and caring for the plants and feeling the joy and sense of achievement brought by gardening activities.The whole school participates in the project, and the concept of waste reduction, recycling and reuse is implemented in a more comprehensive manner. The collected recyclables are regularly delivered to the "Green@Cheung Sha Wan" recycling store.Food waste is actively reduced through composting, and the mature compost will be used as fertiliser in the school garden to achieve sustainable development.
