by Matthew Wang, P4K Being the emcee for the National Day Whole School Assembly was a great learning experience. Preparation for the event was challenging, as we only had a week or so to prepare with the school Sport’s Day and holiday that was held just before the Whole School Assembly. On the day of the assembly, I had stage fright and I did not do as well as I usually did during rehearsals. Fortunately I took deep breaths […]
by Yumi Takafuku, P4D When Mr Kneale first asked me if I would like to be the emcee for the National Day Whole School Assembly, I was nervous. Though I have participated in several external speech competitions before, it was my first time speaking on stage in my friends and teachers’ presence. I quickly calmed myself down by telling myself I was lucky to be selected. I knew I could do it and make Mr Kneale proud. While practising […]
四年级D班 李思恩 在领袖生训练营中，我们参与了很多有意义的活动。 我明白了怎样的人是一个跋扈的人，怎样的人才能称得上是一个领导者，也学会了怎么区别一个跋扈的人和一个领导者。 在活动的过程中，我和其他领袖生们一起讨论真正的领导者应该具备怎样的品格。我们不只是讨论话题，还做了一些游戏。在第一个游戏中，我和组员们用一条很短的绳子把一些杯子叠在一起，其中最大的难度是不能用手碰杯子，这个环节是考验大家的合作能力。我们还玩了一组需要用身体来做成各种形状的游戏，特别有意思。老师们都说：“团结力量大！” 我觉得他们说得对。 这次的训练营，让我认识到怎么做才能成为一个更好的领袖生。
by Alex Yu (S4S) Bump…Set…Spike…and OVER! A resounding roar erupts from the stands. This is what we live for – what we wholeheartedly signed up for: the feeling of adrenaline coursing through our veins as we wipe away beads of sweat from our ruddy cheeks. For some, volleyball is merely a sport, but for the U16 Boys team, it is a commitment. Training from the very onset of the academic year, perfecting our digging and serving, before proceeding to […]
by Maeve Wong (S4L) and Aradhana Upadhyay (S4M) Many people think that joining a competitive sports team is daunting. The long, arduous hours of physically and mentally strenuous training sessions can sometimes be stressful and requires a lot of dedication. However, being part of the team does not just boil down to the training hours and the matches. It extends beyond those fields, teaching us not only about the sport but also about patience, consideration, and appreciation for each […]
by Kieran Chu (S1S) As the U14 Boys’ Volleyball Team’s Vice-Captain, joining the Volleyball CCA team has been one big learning journey for me. It came by some of the S2 students inviting me along to a practice session and I never looked back. During primary school, I learnt some of the very basics but I had never been involved in a competitive volleyball match. Therefore, this was a great opportunity for me to develop my skill set and […]
by Lau Yih Hsuan Athena (S2R) When we had our first match of the season, many of us didn’t even know each other’s names, and some of us didn’t know how to play volleyball; yet we had to play our first match of the season against HKIS. We ended up losing 25-3. Two months later, we got into playoffs and beat that same team in an intense tiebreaker 15-13. Although it was mainly the starting unit that played on […]
by Alex Chen (S2S) The U14 Football ISSFHK season has just ended, and it has been an astonishing season! Even though we didn’t do very well against teams such as KCCIS and HKIS, we persevered and learned a lot about teamwork, strategy and the importance of a having a positive mindset. All of these were especially important when playing defence, as when playing against skilled and fast attackers, we needed to outnumber them and not stick our foot out […]
