DSC International School hosted successful Open Day attended by 400 families

Over 400 families attended the Open Day hosted by DSC International School (DSC) on Saturday, 4 March 2023. The event welcomed all families and friends from across Hong Kong to join the DSC community for a morning of fun-filled activities, games and art exhibition. It was also an excellent opportunity for prospective families to immerse themselves in DSC’s multicultural friendly environment.

As a proud member of CTF Education Group (CTFEG), DSC offers a through-train programme for students aged 4 to 18 years. DSC is a registered school with the Ontario Ministry of Education in Canada to award the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD), which is widely recognised by universities around the world.

New Creative and Innovation Hub enhances STEAM learning experiences

The new Creative and Innovation Hub, a purpose-built space equipped with the latest technology enhances the STEAM and innovation education experiences of all DSC students; The newly renovated Outdoor Sports Ground provides DSC students with access to basketball, ball hockey, track and field, and tennis. DSC sports teams regularly win trophies and championships in basketball and ball hockey.

DSC Graduates Attend World’s Top Universities

In 2022, many of DSC’s graduates went on to attend some of the Top 100 Universities in the world, including: University of British Columbia and University of Toronto in Canada; Imperial College London, University of Edinburgh, University of Leeds and University of Manchester in the U.K.; University of New South Wales and University of Queensland in Australia; University of Aukland in New Zealand; The University of Hong Kong, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, The Chinese University of Hong Kong and City University of Hong Kong.

Enriched Experiential Learning Beyond the Classroom

During the Experiential Learning Week every year, DSC students are taken outside of their classroom to experience the world around them. In 2022, all students were committed to spreading the important message of ocean conservation and environmental protection. Hundreds of DSC secondary students visited six beaches in Hong Kong to clean them up, and some even went into deep water and they successfully removed 20 kg of debris such as old fishing line, plastic trash and glass bottles.

DSC students have been very hands-on in fundraising for many different charities throughout the year too. They collected and sold used clothing at the Call To Earth Day 2022 and donated all sales to Redress, an environmental charity organisation. DSC students also had high involvement in planning and execution of the Operational Santa Claus 2022 programme which was very successful and brought impactful learning experience for them to collaborate across all grades and achieve the fundraising goals.
