I absolutely loved being a part of Quarry Bay School. The vast array of learning opportunities available here was truly remarkable, and I always felt supported when I needed extra help. My fondest memory is the joy of talking and playing with my friends during recess in the vibrant school playground.

I've had the privilege of being part of the Quarry Bay School (QBS) community twice - first as a student and now as a parent for over 7 years. The excellent leadership team, the teachers and staff are friendly, enthusiastic, and caring towards every student. Both of my children have been very happy at QBS, learning in a positive environment and developing meaningful friendships. I highly recommend QBS to other parents.

What a week of Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations at QBS!

A massive thank you to our incredible PTA and Chinese Department for their wonderful efforts in bringing the festive spirit to life!

This week, our students enjoyed the pleasure of making and tasting delicious mooncakes 🥮. Yesterday, the QBS community came together for the traditional Lantern Walk, which was beautifully lit up by the amazing self-made lanterns from our competition! 🏮 And to top it all off, today our students ran a fantastic and engaging Mid-Autumn Festival Assembly.

Truly a memorable way to celebrate this tradition!

QBS Year 3 students began their new transdisciplinary unit, "How the World Works"!

This week, they had their first trip to the Science Museum, where they explored interactive exhibits and observed how different natural systems function. Back at school, they ran some exciting experiments, diving deeper into their understanding of the natural world.

With the recent typhoons reaching Hong Kong, our students may even get a chance to analyse some natural phenomena firsthand!
