History of LCTMS

This school was founded in August, 1991. In September, the school officially launched its grand opening. Our School Supervisor, Mr. Li Chi Kwong, succeeded his father's will to educate children in Hong Kong . With the approval of the EMB, the school was named " Lee Chi Tat Memorial School ".

LCTMS was originally a half day school. Till February 2003, a new campus was allocated by the EMB. In the same year, the a.m. section was renamed as " Tsang Mui Millennium School " and the p.m. section remained as “ Lee Chi Tat Memorial School ". Both schools turned into whole-day primary schooling.

Mission

The mission of LCTMS is to provide “sunshine education” for children, so as to pave the way for whole-person development. We aim at building up children's creativity through pleasant and effective learning. On the foundation of liberal arts education, cordially with the lofty personal character (e.g. self-loved, self-disciplined and autonomy), children are able to develop their lifelong adaptiveness (e.g. the ability of communication, cooperation and self-study), thinking skills (e.g. analysis, problem solving and judgment) and creativity.

We expect that our children are able to innovate, to prepare themselves for changes and contribute to the community as well as being confident and cooperative.

Vision

“Sunshine Education” is the main education objective of LCTMS. As our school emphasizes on the “whole person development”, we never give up on any single child. Under the “Sunshine Education”, children obtain comprehensive and balanced learning and reach their full growth. We believe that “If everybody knows how to learn, everybody can achieve what they have learned.”

In the aspect of teaching and learning, our school devotes to develop the curriculum with student-centred approach, multiplex learning as well as creative thinking. With teachers' care, appreciation and support, children tend to highly participate in different areas of study and gain the sense of achievement. As a result, children's initiative and enthusiasm in learning are expedited and induced. These help them to carry on their pleasant and effective learning.

Our “Sunshine Education” sows the seeds for building up a beautiful life.

School Motto

Self-loved, self-disciplined, autonomy

Our school emphasizes on the development of children --- learning to live, grasping the right living attitude and the wisdom of living. These are the foundation of being self-loved, self-disciplined and autonomy. We expect to provide different learning experiences through the curriculum so that the children can be self-loved, self-disciplined and autonomy. Consequently our children treasure their life by learning to exert and strive hard without stop, to know how to manage themselves and to think independently.
