CREATING A 21^st-CENTURY SCHOOL:
EMBRACE OPPORTUNITIES AND CONFRONT CHALLENGES

Greetings everyone, I am Principal Wu Kwok Chu. FLPY is the sole high-quality primary school in Tuen Mun District of School Net 71 that is affiliated with the Po Leung Kuk organisation. We are proud to have received the Po Leung Kuk Outstanding School Award twice. Our school consistently achieves outstanding results in promoting our P.6 students to prestigious secondary schools. This success is due both to our students’ high academic achievements and our affiliation with two renowned secondary schools—Po Leung Kuk Centenary Li Shiu Chung Memorial College and Po Leung Kuk Tang Yuk Tien College.

We are dedicated to nurturing students’ 21^st-century core 6C abilities, encompassing communication, collaboration, creativity and problem-solving, critical thinking, character, and citizenship, equipping students to embrace future opportunities and challenges. Leveraging the campus’s unique strengths and our students’ needs, we offer a school-based curriculum in STEAM and Astronomy, incorporating artificial intelligence content to ensure students grasp the applications, impacts, and ethical considerations of AI. Additionally, the curriculum also integrates the cutting-edge facilities of the ‘Innovation and Technology Application Centre’ and ‘Astronomy Park’. This approach enables students to explore, discover, and create through hands-on experiences, fueling their curiosity and extending their learning. To support the development of Science and Humanities subjects, our school continues to enhance campus facilities, with the ‘Herbal Garden’ and ‘Aerospace Tech Hub’ expected to be completed in the 25/26 academic year, providing a richer learning experience for students.

We place utmost importance on instilling positive values in our students while also prioritizing their physical and mental well-being through comprehensive positive education and a healthy school policy. This includes optimizing assignment quality, scrapping examinations for Primary One students, and offering daily afternoon study periods. Additionally, we have revamped our ‘Four Houses’ programmes and optimised inter-house activities, also established dedicated spaces for eSports cycling, all designed to foster a habit of regular exercise in an engaging learning environment. With over 50 extracurricular activities catered to students’ diverse interests and potential, we strive to provide each student with a platform to showcase their talents through our three-tiered gifted education framework. The remarkable achievements of our students in disciplines such as fencing, Latin dance, innovation and technology competitions exemplify the success of our approach.

Our aspiration is for every FLPY student to enjoy a fulfilling and joyful school experience. By fostering collaboration between the school and parents, we are committed to cultivating future generations that will thrive and flourish in life.
