The summer Visual Storytelling Workshop has come to an end and it has been a remarkable journey!
Our dedicated students have spent weeks learning about story elements and the production process of a picture book. They have worked together to create the incredible final picture book, On Sailing. Efan, our workshop host, would like to thank Garris, Nancy, Jocelyn, William and Even for their outstanding contributions to this project and for making it possible. 😀 🎉
Please take a moment to read what the FutureEd students have crafted this past summer!
A few weeks ago, the Math department hosted a math contest to test students from grades 3-5 their problem solving skills that they have learned over the year. There were a total of 21 questions that consisted of various math topics(such as geometry, fractions, prime numbers, etc) which required them to show their answers in a step by step manner. All students did a great job and the winners are…

On last Friday, Mar 31th , there was a math competition between teams G3/4 in our Math class. The two teams were competitive. In the “must-answer” round, both teams scored the same points, resulting in a tie. In the “fast-answer” round, the Cats team remained calm despite being slightly behind. Finally, they answered the last question correctly, completing a comeback and winning the game with a two-point advantage. The members of the Cats team are:
Anthea
Emma
Henry
Katherina
Miranda Lin
Ruiming
Winnie
Stephie
Congratulations! The Cats team’s perseverance and cooperation during the game were particularly commendable, especially when they encountered difficulties. Despite the challenges, they remained focused and determined to succeed. In the end, Katherina‘s exceptional skills and hard work paid off as she completed the winning question, securing their victory.
Although the Rabbits team narrowly lost the competition in the end, the children demonstrated great enthusiasm and skill throughout the game. They had a strong lead for most of the competition, thanks in part to the exceptional performance of Jerry, the youngest player in the second grade. During a dull moment in the first half, Jerry’s two-point contribution lifted the Rabbit team’s morale and kept them in the game. Even though they fell short in the end, the Rabbits team can be proud of their valiant effort and the positive attitude they displayed throughout the competition.
