In 2023, ICHK joined The Alliance of Sustainable Schools.

TASS is a network of schools within Hong Kong and globally, that seeks more sustainable solutions in how they operate.

Member schools recognise the seriousness of our ecological crises – including climate change, biodiversity loss, deforestation, pollution and water scarcity – and the challenges they pose for the health and wellbeing of our students and the global community.

ICHK has signed the TASS Charter, and in doing so, pledged to develop practices that enable students to develop the knowledge, skills and competencies required to become sustainability stewards.

TASS' founder, Anthony Dixon, has identified that 90% of the carbon emissions from schools come from food, transport, clothing and buildings.

We hope to benefit from the range of excellent PD events offered by TASS, as well as the HK data and science to drive major decisions on these four areas in the future.

Sustainability Coordinator Jon Rees, together with a team of Eco Warriors, is driving initiatives aimed at helping us to lead more balanced, sustainable lives. Our two TASS ambassadors are part of this team, and they connect with our School Representative Council and School Media Team to promote key sustainability issues within ICHK.
