We aim to run a healthy school. Teachers and students are encouraged to take care of their physical and mental health. Through a series and workshops and school-wide activities, this information is passed from students to families, the community, the society and the entire world, thus establishing a positive attitude towards life.
Promotion of Healthy Lunch – Lunch Policy
- Two canteens are located on the Ground Floor for teachers and students to enjoy nutritious lunches.
- In these canteens, students of S1 – S4 enjoy hot lunch prepared by the Tuck Shop provider or lunch brought from home. Students of S5 and S6 are allowed to eat outside of school.
- The “LOVE” platform in the Tuck Shop provides a venue for students to perform during lunch time to build up their self-confidence.
- Parents are also welcome to send lunch for their children before 12:00 noon.
