English Wonderland

English Wonderland is on 2^nd Floor. It is a special room for English fun games. Before you enter the room, you must take off your shoes because it is carpeted. The walls are decorated with beautiful paintings of sea animals and creatures. When you are sitting inside the room, you feel like swimming with packs of fish. Kids love to come here because there are comfortable cushions and lots of cute little soft toys sitting on the floor, waiting for you to hug them. The English ambassadors meet the children every week. They play games and read stories to students from lower levels. You are welcome to come and join them.

NET teacher

My name is Zaheer Ahmed, and I proudly serve as the Native-speaking English Teacher (NET) at S.K.H. Chai Wan St. Michael’s Primary School. In my role, I specialize in instructing students in phonics, guiding them through storybooks, and imparting essential skills for secondary school interviews. In addition to my main teaching responsibilities, I oversee student participation in the Hong Kong Speech Festival, engage students in educational English games and big book reading during recess while also actively promoting various school-wide themes.

Beyond my professional commitments, I find joy in reading, traveling, and watching films. I have a particular liking for both fiction and non-fiction literature. One of my cherished reads is ‘Charlie and the Chocolate Factory’ by Roald Dahl, a truly enchanting tale that never fails to captivate my imagination. Have you had the pleasure of reading it?

I firmly adhere to the motto by Dr. Seuss : “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you will go.”

English Activities

Our students participated in the production of Oscar Wilde’s ‘The Happy Prince’ – a story about a kind statue and a swallow who give up their wealth to assist those in need. Adorned in vibrant costumes, our students delivered impressive performances with energetic body language, vividly bringing the narrative to life.

Our English Fun Day was held on 3rd July. The day included exciting activities aimed at enhancing students’ confidence and interest in the language.

A highlight of the day was a whole-class singing performance designed to improve language skills and build a sense of community. Each song reflected themes like friendship and perseverance, fostering creative expression.

On the day, students also enjoyed games, challenged themselves with tongue twisters, and watched movies that provided insights into the culture of English-speaking countries.

Overall, English Fun Day focused on learning and practicing English in real-life situations while promoting interaction in a lively atmosphere.

The annual primary one student fashion show was an electrifying event, full of creativity and energy. Held in the school hall, the venue was beautifully adorned with shimmering lights and colourful backdrops.

As the vibrant music played, students eagerly stepped onto the catwalk and showcased their astonishing outfits to teachers and students. The catwalk was a fun mix of different styles. Some students wore beautiful gowns that flowed gracefully, while others sported bold street-style outfits with eye-catching patterns and bright colours.

Students took part in an exciting role-play based on the reader‘What’s on the Menu?’ which features a bunch of animals visiting a restaurant.

Dressed in costumes as waiters and diners and donning headbands, the classroom was filled with laughter as students practiced taking orders and serving customers. This enjoyable activity not only deepened their understanding of the story but also encouraged teamwork and creativity among them.

A group of enthusiastic students visited Central and Tsim Sha Tsui for a field trip. They interviewed tourists about their jobs, discovering a variety of experiences and stories. This hands-on activity helped them connect what they have learned in class to the real world.

Students gained insights into different professions and developed a greater appreciation for the diverse work people do, all while enjoying the vibrant atmosphere of their city.
