The visit of Shrewsbury School Music Director, Maria McKenzie, provided a triumphant end to another nourishing school week that also featured the launch of Co-Curricular activity, the gathering of our School Management Committee and the marking of Mid-Autumn Festival. In Hong Kong ahead of a concert soon to be hosted on campus here in Tseung Kwan O, Maria enthralled Orchestra members over the course of an hour-long workshop, designed to challenge their musicality and teamship.

Tomorrow, I’ll be joining a panel discussion at the South China Morning Post International Schools Fair on the subject of school transitions. Mindful of the many ways in which we support families in their journey into our community, I’ll also be available shortly thereafter for those keen to learn more about the unique benefits of a Shrewsbury education.

Next week, we’ll be participating in a mathematics competition hosted by the Federation of British International Schools in Asia (FOBISIA), gathering for the latest in a series of parent workshops and concluding a round of standardised assessments. An early sequence of formal lesson observations begins shortly thereafter and with it, the opportunity to dive deeper into the complex range of decisions that shape learning each day.
