Joshua M - Y6 Student, Class of 2021
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.

As a parent of 3 children in Quarry Bay School, I believe QBS offers the best of both worlds, an international yet local community. With a down-to-earth feel, QBS is a school where academics go hand in hand with happiness, lots of love and enthusiasm and a passion for learning in a variety of ways. QBS is a school that brings out the best in my children no matter their differences and personalities.

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.

Andrew Y. - QBS parent
As a former Quarry Bay School student from 2012-2015, I was thrilled to work at the school for a year. I'm deeply passionate about QBS's core values and the caring, supportive community that empowers the student body. QBS is a highly creative school that encourages self-expression across all subjects. I love being a part of this positive environment surrounded by a friendly, social community. QBS provides students with diverse opportunities that enhance their overall school experience. During my time as a student, I was heavily involved in sports, representing the school in various internal and external events. I believe student participation in school activities is crucial for building confidence, developing social skills, and forming strong relationships.

Quarry Bay School manages to combine high expectations and academic rigour with some of the softer skills that will be so necessary for our children's future. Children here are happy, curious and kind. Most important of all, they love learning and enjoy coming to school. Parents, children and teachers all play a part in the supportive school community which creates a great sense of belonging.

What's New at QBS?
Only 1 day to go before the QBS Centennial Tram will be running along the historic tracks of the HK Tramway!
Did you know Hong Kong is home to roughly 10% of the world’s remaining Yellow-crested Cockatoos? 🦜
Right now, these critically endangered birds are facing a major "housing crisis," with typhoons and tree pruning wiping out over 60% of their natural tree hollows.
To help, researchers from the HKU School of Biological Sciences have teamed up with QBS to build and install a custom artificial nest box in Victoria Park. It’s a brilliant collaborative effort giving these iconic urban birds a vital lifeline while teaching the next generation about hands-on conservation!

Celebrating 100 years of excellence is a milestone a century in the making, and it wouldn't be complete without the ALUMNI who shaped our legacy.

Battle of the Books Semi-Finals at QBS!
Yesterday, QBS was buzzing with literary excitement as we hosted the semi-finals of the Battle of the Books Hong Kong competition! It was a pleasure to welcome teams, coaches, and parents from five different schools to our campus for an intense morning of high-energy competition!
Across 15 exciting rounds of gruelling questions, every school displayed fantastic teamwork, detailed book knowledge and a wonderful school spirit!
We are incredibly proud to announce that the QBS team won our group's semi-finals! Our students' hard work and dedication to their reading lists have truly paid off, and we are officially moving on to the Finals in two weeks!
Beyond the competition, it was a wonderful celebration of a shared love for reading, communication skills, and our vibrant school community. Huge thanks to everyone who cheered our readers on.
Get those books back out—we’ve got one more battle to go! 🛡️📖

This week, our community was treated to two spectacular nights of music, and we couldn’t be prouder. From the soaring voices of our Primary Choirs to the incredible precision of the Orchestra, it was a masterclass in musicality.
A huge shoutout to the 116 QBS students who took the stage! Your performances were a true testament to your dedication, talent, and months of hard work. You represented QBS and ESF with such grace and heart.
Thank you to all the staff and parents who supported our young artists on this journey. We’re already looking forward to the next one!

Our Year 4 students were buzzing with excitement this morning as they set off for their very first camp adventure!
They’ve headed off to Sai Kung for three days of "classroom without walls." From team-building challenges to outdoor exploration, we can’t wait to see all the fun, learning and growth they experience.

Our Year 3 students have been getting creative today! By linking their Sharing the Planet Unit of Inquiry with the 5Rs—Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Repurpose, and Recycle—they’ve mastered the art of upcycling, proving that a little imagination can give old materials a beautiful second life.
Happy World Art Day!

This week, our Year 6 students are embarking on an unforgettable journey of discovery, exploring Beijing's iconic landmarks or rediscovering Hong Kong's rich cultural tapestry.
By immersing themselves in local traditions and practising their Mandarin in authentic settings, they are developing the empathy, language skills, and independence that define a global learner.
Growth happens when we explore together!

Our Year 1 students took to the stage this morning, treating us all to a truly enchanting production of Jack and the Beanstalk. From brave Jacks to very persuasive cows, the performance was nothing short of magical!
It was a joy to see every child shining with such happiness and confidence under the spotlight. This performance wasn't just about the applause; it was a wonderful culmination of their hard work during the current Unit of Inquiry "How We Express Ourselves."
Congratulations to our Y1 superstars—you’ve shown us that even the smallest seeds of effort can grow into something truly giant!

Today, our hall came alive for QBS~My Language Day! Led by 40+ dedicated Student Cultural Ambassadors and our international staff, this colourful event was a resounding success.
Beyond the vibrant displays and languages, today was a celebration of our identity as a racially friendly campus. By exploring one another's heritages, our students didn't just learn about traditions—they strengthened the bonds of respect and inclusion that define our school.
It was a wonderful day of mutual discovery and a true reflection of the global citizenship we live every day.
