English Week
English proficiency has been an essential qualification for secondary students. Our school has been dedicated to creating comprehensive opportunities for English learning.
The theme for this year’s English Week is ‘Better Together; Better Days Ahead!’ in the hope that all teachers and students will work hand in hand for a brighter future. English teachers will turn our campus into a carnival, where students can experience all sorts of fun activities while learning the language.
