Early Years Campus Weekly Update

Dear Parents,

The past month at NAISHK Sai Kung was bustling with engaging events and enriching experiences for our students. As we look back on March and April, I am thrilled to share some highlights and extend a warm invitation to the upcoming events in our school over the Summer Term.

Enrichment Week

Enrichment Week marked the perfect conclusion to our Spring term, offering our students a diverse range of activities. From Drama workshops with Ms Vevers and theatre productions, to close encounters with fascinating animals during Animal Adventures, our students embraced new learning opportunities with enthusiasm. Additionally, they explored the realms of Music, movement, and expression alongside Ms. Martin and embarked on special trips to Kidztopia (Nursery and Reception) and Kadoorie Farm (Year 1), creating lasting memories with their classmates.

The week culminated in our Picnic in the Playground - Sai Kung Showcase 2025. Our school community came together for a morning filled with singing, musical performances, captivating displays of Kung Fu and Jujitsu by our talented students, and shared enjoyment, culminating in a delightful picnic. Congratulations to all our students who showcased their talents individually and collectively with their classmates.



World Earth Day

Returning from the Easter break, our focus shifted to World Earth Day, prompting reflections on environmental stewardship. Through engaging activities, discussions on sustainability, and a visit from Kenny ‘The recycling man’, to educate our students on recycling, reinforcing the importance of caring for our planet.
