Hong Kong Inter-School City Nature Challenge (HKISCNC)

When I first heard about the Hong Kong Inter-School City Nature Challenge, I felt very eager to learn about the biodiversity around us. I thought that this was an enriching experience to allow us to look at biology from a different perspective, instead of learning in an enclosed environment. As someone who enjoys photography, my first thought was that not only was this was going to be fun, it was also going to help enhance my creativity. On the 6th […]

S3 Camp: Our Experience

The S3’s started their morning at 8am, meeting at central ferry pier. We traveled to and from camp by ferry with a great landscape of Central. The boat was very breezy but a calming journey with the anticipation of arrival upon us all. The camp location: Cheung Chau, a small island with beaches, temples and impressive scenery. The peaceful island is where we can connect with nature, away from city life. Through urbanization, parts of Cheung Chau are modernized (food […]

Netball U20 Girls Team

This year I had the privilege of being the Captain of the U20 Girls Netball team again. Some might say we ended the season empty handed, but I digress, as our team has been through thick and thin. We have stepped away from this season not just with a greater aptitude for the technical skill and physical standards that netball demands, but also a greater understanding of each other, and ourselves. As a passionate netball player, I have grown to […]

Head of Raffles House Brian Wong

It was only when asked to write about my leadership journey at SISHK that I stopped to consider – at what point did I become a leader? Was it when my form teacher nominated me in Primary 3 as a school monitor, a position I treasured because it meant a reward from my parents? Was it when I made the last-minute decision to make an election speech for the Community Council as a clueless S1? Or was it when I […]

Head of Raffles House Joyce Zhu

I started my leadership journey early on in my time at SISHK. I was a school prefect since Primary 3 and kept the position until I graduated from primary school. However, I took a step back from all that when I moved up to the secondary section, intimidated by the older brothers and sisters who seemed so much more wise and mature. Gradually, though, as I grew accustomed to the new environment, I truly felt like I was a part […]

Head of Lee Kuan Yew (LKY) House Lorraine Jiang

I became a member of the LKY house when I joined SISHK in Secondary 2. I still vividly remember the very first house meeting; I sat with my classmates and listened to our house leaders share about the inter-house events and activities. Every house meeting in the past 4 years was filled with a lot of laughter and enjoyments. My journey in SISHK changed me as it made me a better person. When I first came to SISHK, I was […]

President of Student Council Justine Chan

Justine Chan (President of Student Council)

I started my leadership journey here at SISHK in S1, as a wide-eyed student councillor. I vividly remember my first Student Council meeting: it was a Wednesday lunchtime, with the cool air of autumn permeating every classroom, and I recall feeling nervous and unsure of myself as I walked into the 405 meeting room. We were asked to introduce ourselves, and why we’d run; shakily I stood up and mumbled something along the lines of “helping to make the school […]

Head of Marshall House Yoges Yew

My leadership journey in Singapore International School (Hong Kong) started back in Secondary One, when I joined the Athletic Council, without knowing what an adventure this experience will turn out to be! I stayed in that council for three years, allowing myself to meet and mingle with people in the different grades as I began to learn more about myself and what kind of leader I aspired to be. In Secondary Three, I entered the Audio Visual Committee for two […]

Head of Zubir Said House Zoe Schlossmacher

I started my leadership journey as the Vice President for the Leadership Action Committee (LAC) back in March 2017 as a very small and humble Secondary 3 student. This feels like a long time ago but is only just over a year and a half back. Through my time in that position, I felt more connected to the school and had a drive and a want to do more for the school, which resulted in me running to be the […]
