1. A parent-teacher association is established.
2. Home-school activities are held regularly to help children grow up healthily and happily.
3. We organise "Parents Academy" Programmes (16 sessions per year), providing parents the techniques of nurturing children.

Our school provides additional support for NCS students to facilitate their learning of Chinese: appointing additional teacher(s)/teaching assistant(s) to support NCS students' learning of Chinese; arranging intensive Chinese learning and teaching mode(s), e.g. pull-out learning if necessary, split-class/group learning, etc; developing school-based Chinese Language curriculum and/or adapting learning and teaching materials; organising activities to create an inclusive learning environment in the school; and hiring additional manpower and/or translation/interpretation services to facilitate the communication with parents of NCS students. By creating a richer language context and providing different learning opportunities, non-Chinese speaking students can learn with confidence and develop their strengths.
