Cultivating students' reading habit is one of the school's major concerns. With the sponsorship of an educational organization, the "Reading makes miracle" project was completed successfully. The book collection of the school library is rich. The students enjoy the launching of the "Morning Reading Scheme" and "Extensive Reading Award Scheme". They learn and excel in the process of reading and develop a life-long reading habit. Project learning skills are systematically structured in Junior Integrated Humanities curriculum.
