The 14th annual Jie Jie Day drew media attention and brought a team from the South China Morning Post to campus to cover this long-standing RCHK tradition, led by students!

The afternoon was filled with carefully crafted games, tailor-made goodie bags, live entertainment, and refreshments—just a few of the attractions awaiting our "aunties" during their special celebration at RCHK.

The organising committee worked for months to make the afternoon memorable and fun for the Jie Jies—such vital members of our community.

Embracing cultures is something we do really well at RCHK.

The Spring Festival, known in Hindu tradition as Holi, brought vibrant colours and flavours to our campus! The festivities kicked off during break time with a delicious spread of classic Indian cuisine bites, along with beautiful henna artistry, culminating in Colour Fiesta. HAPPY HOLI!

✨ Meet Megan Tan, our IBCP Alumni of the Month!

As one of just four pioneers in our second CP cohort, Megan took a leap of faith on a then little-known pathway because she saw its potential to bring her closer to a career in art and design—and it’s been paying off ever since.

She graduated from SCAD a year early thanks to the advanced standing she earned through the CP, gaining both a head start and confidence to pursue the arts. Today, she works as an interior designer at a studio in Hong Kong, specialising in high-end residential projects. 👉 Swipe to discover her full story!

From all of us at RCHK, we wish you a prosperous Year of the Horse. Kung Hei Fat Choy! 🏮

Lunar New Year traditions are among the most vibrant and colourful celebrations in Chinese culture! 🧧✨

Our Primary students had a wonderful time diving into festive activities organised by our Chinese Department, learning firsthand about the customs that make this season so special. From all of us here, we wish you a prosperous year ahead. 🏮

Hundreds of beautiful designs, but only one winner!

Grace P**n, a Year 9 student at RCHK, won the competition for the best interpretation of the Lunar New Year-themed design with her take on the Chinese Year of the Horse.

RCHK CEO Belinda Greer, who selected the design after long deliberation, said: “I was particularly impressed by how Grace conveys movement, energy, and strength, and by her use of bold colour and texture to capture the spirit of celebration that defines this special time of year”.

27 January marked International Holocaust Remembrance Day, officially proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in 2005 to coincide with the 60th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp.

Yesterday, ESF South Island School hosted a profoundly moving session organised by the Hong Kong Holocaust and Tolerance Centre. Our students were honoured to hear from Madame Larissa Cain, a survivor of the Warsaw Ghetto, who shared her firsthand testimony.

Choosing a future path is a critical journey, yet the right direction isn't always clear. This is where our RCHK Career Counsellors come in! Committed to providing secondary students with continuous guidance and the resources they need to make well-informed decisions, the Further Education (FE) team recently hosted a Mini University Fair for Years 10–13 students.

While smaller in scale than our large annual RCHK Fair, this event provided a focused environment featuring a select group of UK universities and Hong Kong-based representatives. Students had an opportunity to engage in one-on-one conversations and ask detailed questions about their prospective academic careers.
