Message from the Head Principal

Nurturing a Culture of Excellence and Kindness


It brings me immense joy to extend a warm welcome to each of you as we embark on another exciting journey at Po Leung Kuk Choi Kai Yau (CKY) School. With tremendous pride and enthusiasm, I invite you to take part in our vibrant community as we commence a new school year filled with promise, growth and opportunity.

At CKY School, we stand as a beacon of excellence in through-train education. As the first private independent school to provide a 12-year bilingual education, we are dedicated to fostering holistic development and nurturing lifelong learners. Our student body boasts a diverse Hong Kong background with fluency in English, Cantonese and Putonghua. CKY School is well-established as an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School, embracing the IB learner profile and its empowering attributes. We aim to equip our students with the essential skills, knowledge and deep-rooted values to navigate the challenges of a rapidly changing world.

In our pursuit of meaningful education, we emphasise deeper learning with a curriculum that fosters critical thinking, problem-solving and creativity. Students are encouraged to understand how ideas have been formed and to apply them innovatively across various disciplines.

Central to our vision is the belief that “Every Child is Good at Something.” This principle underscores our commitment to recognising and cultivating individual talents. Through a wide array of opportunities, we encourage students to explore their passions and develop a sense of self-discovery which builds character. Interpersonal skills and moral values cannot be acquired solely within the classroom. A CKY education thoughtfully weaves a range of enriching in-school programmes, community service initiatives and overseas study tours, where our students develop the key skills that shape them into responsible, compassionate global citizens.

As proud members of the esteemed Po Leung Kuk, CKY School embeds the core values of Love, Respect, Diligence and Integrity in everything we do. This academic year, our overarching theme is “Let Kindness Blossom.” It is my aspiration that every student will embrace this theme by caring for themselves, others and the environment. By sowing the seeds of kindness, we reap the harvest of a supportive community that thrives on empathy, compassion and friendship.

With boundless energy and optimism, we look forward to a year of growth and memorable learning experiences. Together, as a united CKY family, we are building a distinctive culture where excellence and kindness flourish hand in hand.

Warm regards,

Jenny Chong

Head Principal
