CURRICULUM & COMMUNITY CONNECTION

MESSAGE FROM THE

HEAD OF SCHOOL As we reach the end of Term 3, I reflect on the many examples over the past nine weeks of the important relationship between school and home life. AISHK sees this as pivotal for our students’ success and their overall learning experience.

At the beginning of the term, AISHK provided a variety of welcome events to ensure a smooth transition for both new and existing families, ranging from informal welcome coffees to more detailed subject selection evenings for secondary students.

These are valuable opportunities for parents to connect with teachers and leadership staff.

In primary, we witnessed the tremendous success of our student-led conferences, where all classroom doors were open for visiting families to enjoy a showcase of their child’s accomplishments. The artwork displayed on the back cover of this magazine is a result of a collaborative activity offered during the conferences, by our primary art department.

I feel it perfectly symbolises the vibrant and supportive community we have created together.

In a captivating collaboration, starring staff and students, this term saw the long-awaited premiere of the film Avatrek. After many months of production, weaving together themes and members of the science, language and HSIE departments, Avatrek was created to promote Environment Week in August, roughly coinciding with Australia’s National Science Week. I encourage you to watch this entertaining film which whimsically showcases elements of astrophysics, geology and language learning.

In the last week of Term, our Year 12 Valedictory Dinner and Valedictory Assembly will see our most senior students’ school life journey celebrated in the presence of teachers, mentors, parents and dignitaries of the AISHK community. These events shine a light on the resilience, confidence and uniqueness of our inspiring students, and what it means to have an AISHK education.

I look forward to updating you on these events and to connecting with you on our return to school in Term 4.

Have a safe, relaxing and enjoyable term break.

Despite a postponement due to wild weather, our Year 11 and 12 students celebrated their highly anticipated and well-deserved Senior Formal. Filled with laughter, dazzling outfits and musical stylings of the Secondary Rock Band, it was an unforgettable evening for staff and students which will be cherished for years to come.

BOARD CHAIRMAN’S

MESSAGE On behalf of the AISFL Board, welcome to the Term 3 issue of The Lion Rock magazine.

More than 70 new students joined AISHK at the commencement of Term 3. It is a privilege to welcome our newest families, who add to the vibrancy of our diverse school community and contribute to the growth and development that AISHK continues to experience.

The AISHK Ball was held in August, bringing the community together to celebrate the school’s success. The fantastic turnout of parents, staff, sponsors, friends and representatives of AISHK’s founding associations made the Ball a great occasion. The event was generously supported by sponsors and was the culmination of months of hard work and dedication by the AISHK Parent Association. Congratulations to all involved.

Also in August, the school and AISFL Board hosted an appreciation dinner for Australian Consul-General Ms Elizabeth Ward, ahead of the completion of her term of service in Hong Kong. We appreciate the ConsulGeneral’s many contributions to AISHK. The strong relationship between the Consul-General’s office and AISHK is evidence of the important role that the school plays in Hong Kong’s Australian and wider communities.

The return of the AISHK Sports Awards, after a hiatus due to the restrictions of COVID-19, was also a cause for celebration this term. The Awards showcased the diverse range of sports that our school offers and highlighted the representative opportunities available to our students.

I extend my thanks to all our staff, parents, students and the wider community for your commitment throughout another energetic and successful school term.

Wishing you all a restful and enjoyable break.

Warm regards,

Welcome Back to Term 3 A

ISHK returned to Term 3 with over 70 new students joining our school! We extend a very warm “hello”

to our newest families who have joined us from around the world, many of whom enjoyed connecting with the

school community at the Parent Association Welcome Coffee event. Held at the start of each term, these informal gatherings are an opportunity for new parents to meet each other and hear from the Head of School and Executive team. On the field and in the hallways, the students’ bright smiles and embraces after the summer break were a sign of an exhilarating Term 3 ahead!

BUDDING LEADERS:

Year 2 Embrace the Role Model Journey!

L

essons in leadership start early at AISHK, as we feel it is important for students to understand that being a leader can mean different things in different contexts.

A leader is not always the most prominent person in the room, in fact, some leaders may be quieter achievers, focusing on leading by example and being of service to others. In Term 3, Year 2 students experienced their Leadership Day, learning how to be role models and leaders for all Prep - Year 2 students.

8|

LION ROCK | VOLUME 40

There is always much excitement amongst the Year 2 students as they reach the end of the early childhood year levels and they feel they are ready to take on some more responsibility. One key role as a result of the Leadership Day is playground duty, where Year 2 students help to support and encourage positive behaviour at recess. As you might see around school, they are now very proudly donning their high-vis jackets, which ensure their playtime peers know that there are true leaders in their midst!

A SHOWCASE OF SCHOOL LIFE

2023 Student-Led Conferences

10 | LION ROCK | VOLUME 40

T

he annual student-led conferences took place in September, with every primary classroom and specialist learning area opening its doors to parents and students.

The conferences were well-attended and serve as a collaborative showcase of our students’ academics and the nurturing learning environment at AISHK. Fostering strength in the important relationship between students, teachers and parents, this event adds to a successful school life and a unique, AISHK education.

Students proudly took the lead in guiding parents through various subject stations, demonstrating their learning in interactive ways. Each session concluded with a family discussion with the class teacher, where students reflected on areas of strength and achievement, and areas where they would like to improve.

We express our gratitude to all the parents who attended the student-led conferences in primary. Your presence and participation means a lot to the students and staff who work hard to provide this opportunity.

REPRESENTING AISHK WITH WOMEN IN LEADERSHIP

12 | LION ROCK | VOLUME 40

I

n August, two of AISHK’s founding associations, the Consulate-General in Hong Kong and the Australian Chamber of Commerce, provided an insightful event for friends of the Hong Kong-Australia business community.

The AustCham Women in Business Network (WiBN) hosted the event at the Official Residence of the Australian Consul General, in celebration of women in business. The event brought together a diverse range of talented professionals and visionary leaders from across the community, including many AISHK parents.

AISHK was represented by Head of School, Ms Mina Dunstan, as a panel speaker, alongside the Co-Chair of WiBN Natasha Norton. Experiences and views were shared as female leaders in diverse industries, with discussion on topics including what leadership looks like for the next generation of young women, and what expectations they have of their leaders. It was an opportunity to convey the outstanding examples of leadership we witness in AISHK staff, students and parents, and to reflect on what style of leadership inspires us.

ACKNOWLEDGING THE AUSTRALIAN CONSUL-GENERAL TO HONG KONG AND MACAU:

Thank You FOR YOUR SUPPORT

The school and AISFL Board hosted an appreciation dinner for Australian Consul-General to Hong Kong and Macau, Ms Elizabeth Ward, ahead of the completion of her term of service in Hong Kong. Ms Ward has been present at many AISHK events since the beginning of her tenure as Consul-General.

We thank Ms Ward for her exemplary contributions and unwavering support to AISHK, which speak volumes of the strong bond we share and the pivotal role we play in Hong Kong’s local international community.

Ms Ward’s Hong Kong posting followed a distinguished career as a diplomat and more recently, she played a key role in leading negotiations on the Australia – Hong Kong Free Trade Agreement.

Please join us to extend our warm thanks to the Consul-General for her contributions to global Hong Kong and Australian communities, and we wish her the very best for the next chapter of her journey.

PARENT INFORMATION SESSIONS Each term, primary and secondary executive staff provide a range of parent engagement events. The New Parent Welcome sessions, by primary and secondary, aim to inform and connect AISHK newcomers in an informal setting, complete with breakfast refreshments - including lamingtons! Additionally, engaging information evenings that provide invaluable insights into the curriculum highlights and teaching methodologies are conducted, along with the secondary subject selection seminars. These are all key opportunities to support parents in making informed decisions about their child’s academic journey. AISHK is pleased to welcome parents on campus to these events, strengthening the bond between home and school as we work together to empower our students.

n August, AISHK hosted parent and student guests from other schools around Hong Kong, who are considering our school as the choice for their

family. Back by popular demand, the events, named “Experience a Day

at AISHK” were provided in two separate sessions, one for primary aged students on 23 August and one for Secondary students on 30 August.

Parents enjoyed a school tour while student visitors immersed themselves in AISHK school life, joining homeroom, academic classes and assembly.

The Learning Enhancement Team hosted a game and our Pathways Team hosted a session for older students about future directions. The secondary event saw 15 of our students volunteer as Ambassadors for AISHK, plus a secondary SRC contingent who were hosts of lunchtime chats and a fierce game of dodgeball. Of course, to top it all off, we provided some classic AISHK hospitality with lamingtons and a sausage sizzle!

We are pleased to share some highlights of the event and feedback from our guests. It was a great day for all involved. Thank you to the Admissions Team who help bring potential students to the classrooms of AISHK!

“The school has a lot of facilities, like the therapy room, library etc. We went to history class and art class and the teachers are a lot of fun. The cafeteria looks nice and the top floor’s view looks great. The school ambassador showed me around the school and we did a treasure hunt, which helped me learn the facilities here.” - SHELDON

“We started our class by having PE first. We then met Mr Cunningham who was really friendly. After the PE lesson, we went to the Arts room on 7/F with Mr Allante. He was helpful and we drew animals together.

Then, we went down and got some fruits and cakes as snacks for recess. It was time for the treasure hunt around the school campus which let me know how the campus works.” - IAN

O

ver the last several months, my Performing Arts Technician colleague, Mr San Juan and I filmed the Avatar/Star Trek parody “Avatrek:

Way Down Under.” It was a big project, but we paced ourselves, with some filming most weeks this year. We are indebted to the acting and production talents of many of our colleagues and a handful of students who performed admirably in the face of an alien invasion.

We showed the trailer early in Term 3, put up posters, and showed

Avatrek itself to primary and secondary assemblies in week 5. I think the students got a kick out of seeing some of their teachers on a big screen!

Avatrek was created to promote our Environment Week in August, roughly coinciding with Australia’s National Science Week.

This year the science department teamed up with the Language and HSIE departments and the film featured the 3 department heads prominently.

The film was written to showcase elements of our subjects, especially astrophysics, geology, and language learning. Most importantly, it had an environmental message, which fitted in with an assembly and other activities to raise awareness about the environment.

We hope you enjoy watching it as much as we enjoyed making it.
