HKIEd Joy of Learning No.1, 2004
Granting of Self-Accrediting Status : a milestone for HKIEd
   
  The Chief Executive and Jockey Club  Chairman

Mr Tung Chee-hwa, the Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and Mr Ronald Arculli, GBS, JP, Chairman of the Hong Kong Jockey Club joined a cheerful group of students of the Hong Kong Institute of Education Jockey Club Primary School at its Opening Ceremony held on 18 February, sharing their joy of learning over books and games.

Laughter filled the English Language Room of the School as the two dignitaries joined 26 students in story telling and games during a tour of the School. The activities are typical of the many interactive and innovative teaching approaches practised at the School everyday.

Mr Tung and Mr Arculli met the students before officiating at the opening ceremony which was conducted by four students in Cantonese, English and Putonghua, languages commonly used in daily teaching and activities at the School.

In support of the innovative concept of a "school for the future" that HKIEd proposed in 1997, the Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust donated $92.74 million for the establishment of the School inside the HKIEd campus.

 

Addressing some 500 guests and parents at the ceremony, Mr Ronald Arculli, Chairman of the Hong Kong Jockey Club said: "The School has endeavoured to promote student-oriented and holistic education. Through parent-school partnership and with flexible and varied teaching spaces, the School has provided a training ground for trainee teachers and successfully promoted some innovative teaching modes to other educationists in Hong Kong."
