How is St. Matthew's Lutheran School (Sau Mau Ping)?
School Wind:
Our school promotes life education to cultivate students' positive outlook on life and to create a positive and healthy campus. Through the "Secrets of Happiness", teachers shared the definition of happiness and the ways to achieve happiness, encouraging students to lead a happy life. Teachers write prayer cards for students to express their love and care for them and to let them feel the care of their teachers. In addition, we have established a caring and inclusive culture among students, for example, we have implemented the "Junior Teacher Scheme" whereby senior students are assigned to mentor students in need. Various service students are recruited to serve as Care Angels, Environmental Pioneers, Sports Ambassadors and Campus Guards to build up a caring campus culture.
