Year 8 students are developing resilience during rock climbing excursions.

The students are all taking part in rock climbing and coastal exploration days at Shek O.

Through a Human Technologies lens, they are exploring the technologies involved with rock climbing.

The learning days are also helping them to build up their confidence, support peers and experience Hong Kong's beautiful coastline. Activities like rock climbing help to build resilience in our students, enabling them to develop the ability to face down their fears, and dig deep into reserves of spirit and energy.

This is a mindset they can then transfer to the rest of their lives, whether it is dealing with exams or any of the daily challenges that they will encounter in the world.

Excursions for each year 8 class have been arranged by the outdoor education team.
