The 21st Century Cup National English Speaking Competition, initiated by the China Daily Group in 1996, seeks to encourage primary to university-aged students to showcase their English speaking skills and creativity. This annual competition has moved from city to city across the Chinese mainland.

After considerably intense competition in Hong Kong, winners from each category were crowned. GT’s Katie Leung Sen Fung has achieved first runner-up in the primary category for two years in a row. A huge congratulations to Katie, and we hope others will gain inspiration from her achievements!

初小的語文資優班同學參加了由語常會及太陽樹教育中心主辦的「邊讀，邊煮，邊寫」全港徵文比賽，獲得優秀的成績。

是次比賽的主題為「我最愛吃的蛋料理」，同學們學習以借物抒情的手法來寫文章。3B班莫智晴同學以「外婆的蒜頭雞蛋炒飯」一文得到優異獎，獲得獎狀及繪本乙本。而2A邢維逸同學更是脫穎而出，成為比賽的冠軍，他的文章——「紅雞蛋」文筆細膩，寄託着他與外婆之間深厚的感情。維逸除了獲得獎狀及一千元的書券外，文章更獲刊登於2021年7月30日的經濟日報港聞版中。拿着印有自己文章的報章，維逸表現得十分興奮，拿着報紙愛不釋手。

藉着參加不同的校外寫作比賽，希望同學們能夠汲取經驗，挑戰自己，享受寫作。

本校20位來自「機械奧運小先鋒」資優班同學，於五月份參加由香港機械人學會主辦的「2021香港機械奧運會」獲得卓越成績，同學們在13個不同的比賽項目中，勇奪8個冠軍、10個亞軍、3個季軍及3個殿軍共24個獎項。

頒獎典禮在5月29日於香港科學館順利舉行，同學們興奮地從科學館館長手中接過獎盃，及後與家長和老師分享努力的成果。今年優才在機械奧運會中共奪得24個獎項，較上一次參賽多出接近一倍，實在可喜可賀。

These two years have been full of challenges, but we are proud that our second cohort of IB students have performed successfully in the IBDP examinations. In fact, three students got 45 points (full score) and two students got 44 points. The general performance has improved significantly, from an average score of 38.9 last year to 41.6 this year. Our second IBDP cohort has indeed performed far better than their peers around the world.

優才五位同學踏足KOL的領域，一嘗當YouTuber的滋味，他們還首次參加由賽馬會萬鈞毅智書院舉辦的2021全港小學「我是KOL!」比賽。

本校囊括6個大獎，還獲得合共價值一千八百元的書劵，表現相當不錯。

Many congratulations to all the fifty three students who participated in the contest. You worked hard under difficult circumstances.

Moreover, special thanks to all the English teachers who helped students prepare for the competition.

We are proud of you all!
