Principal’s Message

Welcome to Sha Tin Government Secondary School’s Webpage.  With the dawn of a new academic year, it is my privilege to outline our school’s core priorities and collective vision for our community’s future. 

We are implementing the new 3-year school development plan with the focus on cultivating autonomous, lifelong learners who possess a global perspective.  This will be achieved through collaborative projects that highlight our country’s progress and achievements, integrate STEAM skills with AI tools and by organizing theme-based forums. Additionally, we are enhancing students’ biliterate and trilingual communication skills by promoting language activities and by optimizing the school-based reading curriculum to develop their multimodal literacy and digital reading capabilities.

Another key focus is to enhance students’ positive values and strengthen their well-being by promoting a healthy lifestyle.  This involves improving both their mental and physical health while instilling positive values.  We provide opportunities for students to engage in physical activities and raise awareness of the 4Rs (Rest, Relaxation, Resilience and Relationships) through diverse self-care initiatives.  Additionally, we integrate service-learning and leadership opportunities with career exploration, enriching experiential learning beyond the classroom.

One more valuable piece of advice I would like to share with our young learners: Adequate rest is fundamental to maintaining good mental health. It is not only about getting sufficient sleep but also about taking regular breaks during study sessions, practising mindful relaxation techniques, and establishing a consistent sleep routine.  Quality rest rejuvenates both the mind and body, enhancing cognitive function, emotional regulation, and overall productivity.

Let’s work hand in hand to cultivate a nurturing school community where each individual feels appreciated and motivated.  I am eager to witness the remarkable achievements that will emerge from our united endeavors and dedication to excellence.

Thank you.
