A growth mindset with creative problem-solving skills is necessary

When the New Normal emerged and education is heavily affected by the pandemic, our faith in God
remains strong. “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and
as innocent as doves.” (Matthew 10:16). While we adjust our practice as the New Normal, we remain
true to our original aspiration in education – let each of our students shine! Look forward to the year
2021 with confidence and courage, giving wings to our students’ dreams. Have a beautiful year ahead!

To promote active living in our LA community, a
virtual sports event named “Virtual MacLehose Trail

December 2020. We aimed to virtually run/walk
1,000km together as a school within these two weeks.
A kick-off ceremony was held and live-streamed via
Zoom in the morning on 26 Nov. All students, parents,
teachers and alumni were invited to participate in
the Challenge. Throughout the event, we received
plenty of running/walking record entries and posts
on Padlet that captured the memorable moments
by teachers and students. If you would like to view
the posts, please visit the Padlet page via this link:
https://padlet.com/ksklaw/wdmsvn64srh6hsmn. We
are grateful that everyone participated with great
relish.
At the end of the two-week Challenge, the whole LA
community achieved a total distance of 8447.52 km
together. 10M2 Janice YU completed the Challenge
with 98.26km, being the top student record achiever;
and Mr. Lawrie MACPHERSON, completed the

House Event - 5 Days Of Christmas:
Scavenger Hunt!
From 7 to 11 Dec, an event called the “5 Days of Christmas: Scavenger
Hunt” was held and planned by the Chardonnay Team. The Team
initially thought of another idea for the December house competition
but due to the pandemic, they had to resort to other options that the
students could do virtually.
When thinking of other competitions to hold, the Team immediately
thought about the Christmas carol “The 12 Days of Christmas”.
Thinking about the Christmas theme and also home-learning, they
figured that they could do a scavenger hunt where the students and
teachers hunt for common Christmas items that could be in their
household. They spent a lot of time working on rules, drafting emails,
making posters, just so the students could have some fun during the
event because they knew that staying at home staring at a screen can
get a bit boring. Once the event started, the Team watched students
from both primary and secondary and even teachers participate in
the event where students seemed to have fun doing the activity and
taking a break from schoolwork. There were even some particular
students who tried really hard to edit their photos to get into the
Christmas spirit. The Team hopes that through this event, other students
and teachers will be able to appreciate the little things
Looking back at all the photos genuinely reminded the Chardonnay and those around them. They would like to thank

2nd Zoom Coffee Morning 3&4
DECEMBER
with Dr. Patrick LAM
As the Coffee Morning sessions organized by LAPT were
well received in October, Dr. Patrick LAM hosted the three
Coffee Morning sessions again to help us build a closer
rapport with our parents and create an interactive and self-
help parent community. Parents were invited to attend
the sessions corresponding to their language preference
and child’s year group via Zoom on 3 and 4 Dec.
During the 2nd Coffee Morning sessions, Dr. Patrick LAM
shared our views on the further development of LA, and
also responded to some questions or queries from parents
or students. Parents also had an opportunity to engage in
dialogue with Dr. LAM.
We thank our parents for their support to the Coffee
Morning sessions.Meet Our Alumni Be Inspired to Pursue Their Own Dreams Editor: Mr. Kelvin YAU As a DSS school offering dual pathways for senior secondary students, we are convinced that whether it is IBDP or DSE that our students have chosen, they are still able to find their ways to pursue their own dreams and shape the future that they have planned for themselves. The encouraging stories of our alumni have proven that to be very true. These alumni do have one thing in common - they all can find their inspiration and turn their passion into their future plan.

Christmas Assembly for Primary DECEMBER
Christmas celebrations looked very different for our classes
this year. On the last day of 1st semester, Mr. Terrence CHUN
and Mr. Obadiah HO from our Spiritual Growth Department
created a Christmas Video for our students. The video
featured a message of ‘peace’ from Dr. Patrick LAM. Dr. LAM
shared the British and German soldiers who exchanged
souvenirs and played football in World War I during the
Christmas ceasefire.
Mr. Neil JOHNSTONE also shared the message of ‘love’.
He focussed on the gifts of the 3 wise men, and how they
connected to today’s Christmas traditions. Mr. Terence and
Mr. Obadiah made the events more festive and had some
sharing about the Christmas messages. Our Christmas
celebration finished off nicely with a prayer from Ms Noel
HO.
In the classes, students had a variety of fun activities. We look
forward to times when we can celebrate in more traditional
ways. Teachers had an online Christmas Zoom, we had a
fancy dress competition, an electronic background contest
and also a quiz. See if you can spot anyone you recognise!
On behalf of the PYP leadership and staff team, we would
like to wish you all the best in these trying times. Christmas
is a time of family so whether they are near or far, enjoy and
stay healthy.Secondary Activities

Christmas Assembly for Secondary
Even though students and teachers could not
gather in the School Hall due to the pandemic, a
special online Christmas Assembly was held for
the very first time.
After the homeroom teachers led a prayer, the
celebration was kicked off by Dr. Patrick LAM’s
Christmas Greetings. He shared with students
that Christmas carries an important message -
Jesus Christ has brought peace to us.
The homeroom teachers then played a video
that was prepared by the teachers and students
for their classes. In the video, the thoughts on
Christmas by the teachers and students were
shared, which motivated students to think "What
does Christmas mean to me?". Youth With A
Mission (YWAM) also prepared a video to help
students reflect on the meaning of life.
At the end, students enjoyed a special Christmas
music video produced by both primary and
secondary teachers. Our teachers surely enjoyed
dancing for our LA students!STEM Corner

Christmas is in remembrance of Jesus' birth, who brings us real peace by sacrificing himself! Due to the pandemic,
our Christmas assemblies have turned online. On 15 Dec, the whole LA community joined the special Christmas

For primary students, a video focusing on "peace", "love" and "hope" was shown to them by their homeroom teachers.
The message of "peace" was illustrated by Dr. Patrick LAM who demonstrated the power of peace, that during World
War I, two hostile armies came to a truce on Christmas and even exchanged gifts. Jesus is the Prince of peace and
when we connect with Him, we can experience real peace.
Christmas is always associated with love and gifts. Mr. Neil has put on a costume and explained the real meaning of
exchanging gifts - to share love and care - in a middle east man image.
Mr. Terrence and Mr. Obadiah showed us a video “Christmas, the Light of World” which gave us hope, because Emmanuel

For secondary, the Christmas Assembly was broadcasted live via Zoom. Year 7 - 11 students joined at home while Year 12
students watched in their homeroom. The theme for this year's Christmas Assembly was "Real meaning of Christmas and Life".
While we also had the Christmas message on peace by Dr. Patrick LAM and the special teachers MV as a gift to our students,
two other videos and slides were presented to help our students reflect on "What does Christmas mean to you?" and "the
meaning of Life".
Youth With A Mission (YWAM) has prepared a video for us on "the meaning of life". The testimony and messages are so
powerful that they make all of us think about one important question "Life". Questions like "what is my self-worth? Values?
And the meaning of life?"; "what does a "meaningful life" mean to me?"; "do I feel empty or frustrated when I can't meet "the
worldly standards"? When people keep telling me that "I'm not good enough"? Or will I feel depressed when "I don't have
certain things"?", provoke meaningful and in-depth thoughts.
Life itself is a very precious gift that God has given to us, and He wants us to live it to the full. That's the reason why Jesus has
come! Only by connecting with Jesus that we'd have real peace and abundant life!
