Welcome to Year 4 2025-26

Dear Parents and Guardians,

A very warm welcome to all of our students and families in Year 4.

The year ahead promises to be full of new learning and experiences as your child enters the next phase of their Primary education. This is characterised by increasing independence and fluency in many social and academic skills. 

In addition to the core curriculum, your child can look forward to exciting experiences with Forest School, trips out to the Hong Kong Museum of Art and developing their artistic skills with in-school workshops. They can also look forward to a sports day at Tsing Yi Stadium, and of course, an action-packed two-night camp in Term 2.
