Child-Centered Education for Future Leaders

It also emphasizes foundational competencies and positive attitudes to prepare children for lifelong success.
Trilingual Excellence & Global Perspectives
CPSKG prioritizes early literacy and communication skills, with native-speaking Putonghua and English teachers delivering structured daily language sessions. Principal Ms. Ng Hing-Lin explains: 'Children are at the heart of our work. Our trilingual team designs immersive programmes rooted in children's literature to inspire a love for languages—key to earning parents' trust over 40 years.'
Outstanding Achievements in Arts & Academics
25+ students won awards at the 2025 Hong Kong Youth Painting Competition (8 Gold, 11 Silver, 5 Bronze, and 3 Champion/Podium titles). Recognized with the 'Excellence in Arts Education Award' by the Hong Kong Children's Cultural & Arts Association.
Early Childhood Literature & Innovative Learning
Early Childhood Literature' is a unique learning feature of CPSKG, aimed primarily at cultivating children's interest in words and reading, as well as enriching their language skills. Through two major language learning programmes at the school—Putonghua's 'Children's Poetry and Painting' and the English 'Early Literacy Programme'—children engage in enjoyable language learning experiences, feeling the rhythm and rhyme of children's poetry and understanding the meanings expressed in words. This enriches their imagination and broadens their thinking.
Effectively Using Mind Maps to Cultivate Independent Learning Abilities
Establishing a good learning attitude and skills from a young age is crucial for future learning. To foster children's ability and habit of independent learning, CPSKG teaches children to use mind maps for learning and summarizing information. This learning method allows children to use illustrations and words to organize their thoughts and express what they have learned. It not only boosts their confidence in exploring new knowledge but also helps teachers understand their learning progress.
Seamless K-12 Continuum
CPSKG's curriculum aligns with CPS and CSS under the 'Three Schools * One Philosophy * One Continuum' ethos, ensuring a smooth transition through primary, secondary, and beyond. CSS's IB programme and university pathways further solidify this future-ready education.

Pope Leo dialogues with children: "Build bridges from an early age"
Pope Leo has a dialogue with children participating in the Vatican's summer camp who gathered with him yesterday in the Paul VI Hall. With them also a group of around 300 young students from Ukraine, hosted in Italy by Caritas for the summer. Jul 05, 2025 Pope Leo XIV during his dialogue with children of the Vatican summer camp (@VATICAN MEDIA) By L'Osservatore Romano"Even as children, we can learn to be builders of bridges and seek opportunities to help others." This is the conviction of Pope Leo XIV, who, in response to questions from children he met yesterday in the Vatican, encouraged them to seek friendship with Jesus by attending Mass, welcoming those who are different, and committing themselves to building peace. The occasion was a midday visit to the Paul VI Hall, where more than 300 participants in the Vatican's annual summer camp program had gathered, joined shortly beforehand by an equal number of children from Ukraine hosted by Caritas Italiana. Responding to three questions posed by three children representing various age groups, the Pope engaged in an informal dialogue with those present. One of the event's leaders introduced the initiative, now in its sixth year. Coordinated by Salesian priest Father Franco Fontana and organized in a similar way to the youth centers of St. John Bosco. The theme for discussions at the summer camp looks at how to help children overcome prejudice in a time when it's increasingly difficult to talk, connect, and share words, thoughts, and even playtime with others. Attending Mass as a child The first question came from Giulia, who asked if the Pope went to Mass as a child. "Of course!" he answered enthusiastically. "Always, every Sunday, with Mom and Dad." He then shared memories from his childhood in Chicago: "Around age six, I was also an altar server in my parish. Before going to school — it was a parish school — we would attend 6:30 a.m. Mass. Mom always woke us up saying, 'Let's go to Mass.'" Serving at Mass was something he truly enjoyed. "From an early age, I was taught that Jesus is always near, that He is your best friend, and Mass was a way to find that friend, to be with Jesus — even before my First Communion." Pope Leo also recalled that back then Mass was in Latin: "We had to learn Latin for Mass, but then it changed to English for me since I was born and raised in the U.S." However, he emphasized, "What mattered wasn't the language of the celebration, but the experience of being with other kids serving Mass, the friendship, and that closeness to Jesus in the Church. It was always something beautiful." Building bridges Next came a question from Edoardo, who, referring to the summer camp's theme, asked how children can welcome those who are different. The Pope greeted the Ukrainian group in English, noting, "Experiences like this — meeting people from different countries, lands, languages, with so many differences between us — are very important." He encouraged the children to embrace "the experience of encounter, of meeting one another, of mutual respect, and learning to be friends with one another." Switching back to Italian for the rest of the group, he reminded them that Ukraine is 'a land that is suffering greatly because of the war.' Speaking to the challenges of communication due to language differences, he acknowledged, "Yes, it can be hard to understand each other." But he emphasized that when there is an opportunity to meet someone different, it is vital to learn mutual respect. "Don't focus on the differences," he said. "See how to live an encounter with respect — to build bridges, build friendship, recognize that we can all be friends, brothers, sisters. That way, we can walk together and move forward." The Pope admitted this isn't always easy: "Sometimes it takes special effort, because we think, 'He's not like me, she's different, doesn't speak like me… looks different…'" Still, he stressed the need to "learn to respect each other, to know that we can live together as friends." Working for peace Finally, Damiano returned to the topic of the conflict in Ukraine, asking what young people can do to build peace. The Pope responded that "even from a young age, we can all learn to be builders of peace and friendship." He offered practical advice: "Don't go to war, don't get into fights, never promote hatred. There are many small things even for you — like when you look at someone and think, 'I like those shoes, and I don't have them…' and then you feel envy or something unpleasant in your heart." Instead, he said, "Jesus calls us to learn to be friends, brothers and sisters to all. In that experience, whether we are Italian, American, Ukrainian — whatever our country — we are all sons and daughters of God." He urged them to learn from childhood "to have mutual respect," to "see the other as someone like me," and to understand that "they're not so different. 'They speak another language; I can't talk to them' — that's not true! There are also gestures. There are ways to approach the other. You can share a bit of bread, find a way to help." Pope Leo XIV concluded, "Even the smallest can start seeking opportunities to be promoters of peace, promoters of friendship and love among all."--Vatican News

Heart And Soul: Three brothers rise to success thanks to parents' support
Do you have any real-life, heart-warming stories to share with readers? We'd love to hear from you. Please keep your story within 900 words. Photos are optional and should be in JPEG format (file size about 1MB, with caption and photo credit). There is no payment for stories, and we reserve the right to edit all submissions. Email your story to: heartandsoul@ with the subject "Heart and Soul". When I was born, I was the only son in the family. For the first five years of my life, I received all the love and attention from my parents – my mother, Radhiah Muhammad, and my father, Rafie Ismail. That changed when my mother gave birth to my younger brother – suddenly, I had a playmate and companion to share my days with. A few years later, our third brother arrived. Just like that, there were three of us boys – no sisters in sight. As we grew up, our parents constantly emphasised the importance of education. At the time, I didn't fully understand why it mattered so much – and, to be honest, I wasn't very interested. Everything changed when I entered primary school. Once a year, after the mid-year exams, we had Report Card Day, when parents met with teachers to discuss our progress. I still remember the look of disappointment on my father's face when he saw my poor results. It hit me hard. That moment became a turning point. I began to see the bigger picture – and realised that, as the eldest, I needed to set a good example for my brothers. I knew I had to make a change, though I wasn't sure how. I explored various paths. I enrolled in a secondary school programme focused on mechanical engineering, but it didn't go well – numbers weren't my strength. After my SPM, my mother suggested I try law. It felt like a total reset – but one I needed. Studying law required strong English, critical thinking, and discipline. It wasn't easy, but I told myself there was no turning back. Eventually, I earned my Bachelor of Laws (Hons) and was admitted as an advocate and solicitor. From then on, I made it my mission to guide my younger brothers – just as others had guided me. Second brother Ahmad Hazman Rafie, wearing a pink ceremonial sash after receiving the Vice Chancellor's Award, together with our parents, Rafie (1st from left) and Radhiah, on his graduation day. My second brother, Ahmad Hazman Rafie, pursued a degree in surveying – and excelled. He did so well, in fact, that he was awarded the Vice Chancellor's Award. I was involved when he was choosing his course, helping him weigh the options. At one point, I worried – what if he wasn't genuinely interested? What if my influence became a burden? Thankfully, everything worked out. I'm incredibly proud of him. He has a bright future ahead in his field. My youngest brother, Luth Mikhail Rafie, recently received his SPM results – a perfect score: 9As, including 6A+. That's something I could never have imagined achieving myself. When he was applying to boarding schools, I helped him prepare by providing reading materials and exercises. But the real credit belongs to him. He worked tirelessly, constantly pushing himself to succeed. Youngest brother Luth Mikhail Rafie celebrating joyfully after achieving straight As in his SPM results. I deeply admire his determination and spirit. I pray he continues to thrive in whichever path he chooses – and he knows I'll always support him. Looking at the three of us, one thing is clear – the true heroes of our story are our parents. They instilled in us the value of education. While all parents want the best for their children, each has a different approach. Ours worked beautifully. Some of their lessons remain etched in my mind: 'Even if parents leave their children with a mountain of gold, it can vanish in the blink of an eye without the knowledge to use it.' 'We have cleared the forest for you to reach the mountain of success – now it is up to you to climb it.' 'We are only sending you to school to read books – not to fight a war.' I am deeply grateful for the love of my family – a love that continues to grow and ripple outward to my son, my relatives, my in-laws, and my friends. I hope our story spreads some of that love and positivity to others.
