English Learning Environment

English Immersion Environment

English is our medium of instruction except for Chinese Language, Chinese History, Putonghua, Chinese Literature, Buddhist Studies, Visual Arts, Liberal Studies and Physical Education.
Our English immersion environment enables students to extend their English learning experience beyond the classroom.
We encourage students to speak English out of class. They can chat with the NET, other teachers as well as the English Ambassadors any time.
We host two exchange students every year. This year, the two students come from Germany and Austria respectively. They attend English lessons in S.6 and other lessons in S.4. Daily contacts with our two exchange students either during lessons or in extra-curricular activities are enjoyable and stimulating. Our overseas friends help a lot to motivate our students to speak English in authentic situations.
Students also use English intensively in numerous activities such as drama courses and performances, English Focus Activities, local and overseas English Immersion Camp, Speech Festival events, M.C. jobs, cultural programmes, English Language Ambassadors Programme, joint school oral practices and competitions.
Students listen to English on many occasions such as morning assemblies, hall assemblies, Sports Days, Student Union elections, Graduation Days and other official activities.
Students also benefit from out-of-school activities such as the Cultural Activity Day organized by the AFS Hong Kong and Australia Summer English Immersion Camp.

英語浸沉環境

英語為本校授課語言 (中國語文、中國歷史、普通話、中國文學、佛學、視覺藝術、通識教育和體育除外)。
我們為學生提供完善的英語浸沉環境，積極鼓勵同學在課堂以外使用及練習英語。
學生於課堂以外有極多機會說英語，如與外籍教師、學校其他老師或英語大使交談。
我們每年接待兩位交換生。2007/2008年兩位交換生分別來自德國及奧地利。他們獲安排於中六上英語課，但其他科目會和中四同學一同上課。通過與兩位交換生在課堂上及課外活動的接觸，同學於日常生活上用英語交談的興趣與動機得以大大提昇。
此外，透過參與眾多的英語活動，如英語話劇課程、英語話劇演出、本港及外地英語營、校際朗誦節、文化交流活動、擔任英語大使及司儀、聯校英語小組討論及比賽等等，學生之聽說能力得以提升，說英語之自信亦逐漸建立。
學生在眾多場合均需鍛鍊聆聽英語的能力，例如早會、禮堂集會、運動會、畢業禮、學生會選舉及學校宣佈等。
此外，學生亦可通過參加暑期澳洲英語營及國際文化交流主辦的文化日等活動，提升英語能力。
