Principal Message

Park View Primary School aims to be a vibrant institution that provides a holistic education for its pupils. Our five strategic thrusts are Academic Excellence, Physical, Aesthetic and Character Development, Strategic Partnership, Innovation and Enterprise and Quality Staff. We aim to nurture our pupils into resilient, innovative and enterprising individuals with a sense of responsibility, integrity, loyalty, compassion and respect to face the challenges in life. We believe that our inspiring teachers, together with our strong partnership with the community, will lead us towards achieving our mission.

Over the five years, the school has focused its effort on providing a holistic education for our pupils. In the area of academic, we aim to nurture our pupils with critical and independent thinking skills, as well as, to ensure that they obtain a rigorous foundation in basic knowledge. Our teachers adopt different teaching strategies to engage pupils in their learning. Pupils are provided with more opportunities for experiential learning as well as space and time for exploration and reflection. Intervention programmes such as peer coaching, buddy reading and writing are organised to help the academically weaker pupils. The school harnesses technologies in its teaching and learning processes. All students go through a structured IT programme. We have also collaborated with St Francis Assisi Primary School of Hong Kong on Project Work using Knowledge Community tools. Since 2003, the Edu-Pal has been set up to provide a platform for teachers to post lessons and prepare worksheets. The school has in the last 5 years, performed well in the PSLE attaining overall percentage passes above the national average.

Our sports programmes, CCAs and Character Development programmes aim to imbue in our pupils the school’s core values of compassion, loyalty, integrity, respect and resilience. The school has developed a niche in Sports. With the aim of imparting important life skills and inspire our pupils to participate in physical activities, the school has embarked on the Sports Excellence Programme and Sports for All Programme. The former identifies pupils who are kinesthetically inclined and channels them for further development in sports. The latter is an organized sports programme that caters to all pupils from primary 1 to 6. This sports programme ranges from inline skating, swimming, and canoeing to abseiling. Our school is one of the 16 primary schools awarded the PSE (Programme for School-Based Excellence) Award in 2005. We have a total of 26 CCAs ranging from Cultural Dance, Guzeng, Wushu and Art Club to Robotics and Entrepreneur Club to cater to the different interests of our pupils.

Our school’s Character Development Programme comprises ‘The Character First Programme’ and the Student Leadership Programme. The ‘Character First Programme’ inculcates in pupils values such as obedience, attentiveness, virtue, generosity and gratefulness. This programme is tied in with the pastoral care programme which aims to equip our pupils with life skills and strengths of character. The Student Leadership Programme provides structured leadership training for prefects and CCA leaders.

The school has a culture that encourages sharing. This sharing culture extends beyond the school. Many of our staff have conducted sharing sessions for parents, fellow teachers, as well as presenting papers at Teachers’ Network, MOE and International Conferences.

Moving forward, we will continue to strive towards building a spirit of innovation and enterprise culture in the school and providing quality school experiences for our pupils.
