sCAMPering Around Hong Kong

Three days of adventures and activities, a lifetime of friendships and memories… From 24-26 October 2018, the Secondary 4 cohort participated in a camp planned and organised entirely by a committee of S4 students – led by Tyrus Yeo (S4S), Chloe Long (S4R), and our Year Head, Ms Louisa Or. Although the three days and two nights was a brief escape from the grim reality of our looming IGCSEs, the time we spent scampering around Hong Kong, cooking and washing […]

My Prefect Camp Experience

The day started with a dull and lengthy bus ride to school. My friend and I scampered down to the gym at half past eight on the dot. We lined up excitedly into our grade levels wondering what the day would bring. The teachers started the day with the question, ”Can anyone think what’s going to happen today?’’ The question swirled around in my head as I pondered the question. The teachers passed the microphone around the gym and many […]

Volleyball U16 Girls Reflection

Throughout the season, we have had the privilege of watching and supporting the growth of the U16G Volleyball Team. We started off as a hodgepodge of talents and experience: a jumble of patchwork hastily pasted together. During training, we fumbled as we tried to dodge one another’s footsteps, crashing and colliding onto the floor. It was the basics that were the most important, and the basics that were the hardest to learn. “Be confident in yourself, then you can perform […]

Co-President of Community Council Maeve Wong

Growing up, I’ve always been taught to be compassionate and kind, and to give back to society because it has given me so much. It’s because of this strong sense of duty to our society that I decided to start small when I first entered the secondary section of SISHK by joining the Community Council. Having been part of the Community Council since Secondary 1, my experience has been one that is filled with its highs and lows. There were […]

Police Touch

On the 22 of September, 5 students from the secondary school went to the Police College for their annual Police Touch Open Day Program, where we got a good look inside the campus where cadets train to become Hong Kong’s police officers. Our first stop was at the marching grounds that the cadets would routinely march on, so much so that there were marks left on the ground by their footsteps. The cadets called them “泪痕”, in translation, tear marks, […]
