Early Years Campus Weekly Update 2 Nov 2026

It was fantastic to see the spooky spirit across campus during our Halloween celebrations! Students and staff truly embraced the occasion, with Friday’s House Disco and games proving a great success, alongside some wonderfully creative window art displayed across the school.

This morning I had a great meeting with our Parent Teacher Association, the PTA, which is part of our cross-campus partnership between the school and our parent community. We had representatives from all campuses, and it is becoming a great space to co-construct our school culture.

The beginning of November marks the start of an especially busy season for our Sixth Form students. For Year 13, IB deadlines are arriving thick and fast, mock examinations are just around the corner, and university applications are beginning to be submitted. Meanwhile, Year 12 students have recently completed a range of summative assessments to consolidate their learning and have received their first Sixth Form report of the academic year.

A huge thank you to everyone who has contributed to the NAE Global Sports Challenge so far. Thanks to the incredible efforts of our students and staff, we have now reached an amazing 11,093.78 miles after just four weeks!

This week saw the exciting start of our Primary Inter-House Long Distance Swim, with students already making a fantastic splash for their Houses! Every length swum is helping Houses climb the leaderboard while demonstrating incredible determination, resilience, and teamwork.

As we approach the half-term break, there is plenty to look forward to in the weeks ahead. Our new Parent-Teacher Conference format will provide greater flexibility for families, our Young Musician of the Year competition continues to showcase the talent and dedication of our students, and preparations are well underway for what promises to be a memorable Halloween Spectacular.

It has been another wonderful week of learning, collaboration, and community spirit across our Sai Kung campus.

As we approach the half-term break, it is a fitting moment to reflect on the first two months in our new Sixth Form Centre. It has been a privilege to witness the enthusiasm, commitment and ambition of our students across the IBDP, A Level and BTEC pathways.

World Mental Health Day was on10th October 2026, and while we marked the day with an assembly to raise awareness for our children, our commitment to supporting our children is grounded in daily interactions.

This week, I would like to shine a light on Communication and Language and Literacy, two closely connected areas that provide important foundations for children's learning.
