The 150th School Anniversary of True Light – Knowledge Fair on “Values Education”
To enhance teachers’ understanding of the concept and strategy of whole-school curriculum planning for values education, we invited the Education Bureau and the University of Hong Kong to co-organise a Knowledge Fair on “Values Education” on 7 May. The theme was “Positive Values, Character Building” and we were honoured to have Mrs. Hong Chan Tsui Wah, Permanent Deputy Secretary for Education, as the officiating guest and Professor Yip Siu Fai, Chair Professor of the Department of Social Work and Social Administration of HKU, as the guest speaker. Teachers from the four True Light Schools gave 12 talks on various topics, and Mr. Lau Hei Pang Kasper and Ms. Wong Wing Yan, School Development Officers of the HKJC Center for Suicide Research and Prevention and QEF’s “Promoting Wellness in School” campaign, also shared positive values for the primary schools and kindergartens respectively. In addition to the teachers from the True Light secondary schools, primary schools and kindergartens, 350 teachers from the education sector also participated in the seminar online and it was a great success.
