F.6 Parents' Gathering (2022-2023)

On 8th October, the F.6 Parents’ Gathering was held. We are pleased to have about 65 parents participating in the event on that day. For the first half of the day, a seminar took place in the school hall. The seminar introduced the JUPAS scheme, selection of programme choices and other learning experiences to parents. At the seminar, our school social worker, Ms. Lam, was also invited to share the skills with parents that how they might accompany their sons during the stressful journey of preparing for DSE. After the seminar session, parents met our form teachers to express and exchange ideas with teachers. Our school is glad that most parents found this event informative and helpful.
