Through community engagement initiatives and experiential learning opportunities, Chatsworth fosters a learning environment where every student feels valued, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential.
Central to this success are Chatsworth's exceptional teachers.

'Each morning, the kids are warmly welcomed and all the teachers take genuine interest in how the kids are going. These small things can have a huge impact on a child's sense of belonging and security in an institution. All the staff at this international school in Singapore have genuine care for how the children are performing, but more importantly, how they're developing as good, thoughtful people.' – Rachel Fergus, parent of two Chatsworth students.
Looking Ahead: A Continued Commitment to Excellence

Dreamer's Journey 2025" – Empowering Families with Disabilities to Venture Beyond Hong Kong. "Soaring High • Transforming Growth" Hong Kong Press Conference
HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 11 February 2025 - On January 23, 2025, 50 selected children and youth with disabilities from under-privileged families in Hong Kong will experience flying and embark on a three-day, two-night trip to Taiwan from February 21 to 23 in 2025. "Dreamer's Journey 2025" allows 40 disabled children who have never flown before and their families, along with 10 disabled youth who have previously received assistance from the organizing body and now volunteer, to join a group of compassionate volunteers. Together, they will create a touching and unforgettable flying dream journey, embracing the spirit of mutual support and resilience that characterizes the people of Hong Kong. The event is organized by the Hong Kong organisation "Dreamer Angel Charity Limited." The organization aims to empower children with disabilities from under-privileged families by helping them realize their dream of flying, encouraging them to face life's challenges with greater courage and determination and to pursue their dreams. This year's event ambassadors, artists Ms. Catherine Chau Ka Yee and Ms. Maggie Wong Mei Ki, will accompany the children on their exploration of the world beyond Hong Kong. The event will also include a team of medical staff and service volunteers, with nearly 200 participants in total. Mr. Sunny Fok, Chairman of the "Dreamer Angel Charity Ltd," stated, "Children with disabilities from under-privileged families rarely have the opportunity to travel abroad with their families. For them, enjoying the view from an airplane is an unimaginable experience. Through this journey, we also hope to appreciate and encourage the parents of these children. Volunteers only care for the children for three days and two nights, but these parents provide meticulous care for a lifetime. We truly need to appreciate these parents for their unconditional love." The event aims to raise public awareness of the importance of caregivers, as well as concern for children with disabilities. Ms. Fanny Ma, the General Secretary of the "Dreamer Angel Charity Ltd," firmly believes, "Everyone deserves the opportunity to dream. Even with physical disabilities, every child with a disability possesses unique talents. As long as we are willing to spend time understanding and inspiring them, and creating opportunities for them to perform in public, they can build their confidence. Even if there are difficulties in pursuing their dreams, they will persist until they are achieved." The organization's services cover low-income families with disabilities, including those with visual, hearing, physical, and autism spectrum disorders, as well as rare diseases. Main activities include parent-child workshops, carnivals, performances and sharing sessions, home visits through the "Legacy of Blessings" program, and the flagship event "Dreamer's Journey." By organizing various large-scale community services, they aim to bring more attention and care to socially disadvantaged groups. The event has received support from organizations across Hong Kong and Taiwan, including sponsorship of event expenses, airfare, hotels, transportation, and complimentary or discounted attraction tickets. Main supporting units include Be Positive, Source Radiance Culture Charity Foundation, CMR Limited, Kaishiu Group, Pak Kiu Engineering Limited, Gene Skin, Able Trillions, Cathay Pacific Airways, Wanpi World Zoo, Tsou Ma Lai Farm, and Ten Drum Cultural Village. The organizers hope the event will raise public awareness of children with disabilities from under-privileged families, attracting further support from organizations and kind-hearted individuals to support and help more children realise their dreams.

The "Lost and Found in Hong Kong: The Unsung Chinese Heroes at D-Day" Extends Exhibition at CUHK until Jan 24
The exhibition will then move to London to commence its international tour HONG KONG SAR - Media OutReach Newswire - 13 January 2025 - The "Lost and Found in Hong Kong: The Unsung Chinese Heroes at D-Day" exhibition, at the invitation of the Chinese University of Hong Kong Library, has been extended to January 24th. From September 2024 onwards, the exhibition has publicly exhibited the diaries and letters of Chinese naval officer Lam Ping-yu which reveal his participation in the Battle of Normandy (D-Day) on June 6th, 1944, aboard the British battleship HMS Ramillies during World War II. Lam's 80-page diary was discovered by chance in 2015 in a soon-to-be-demolished tenement building in Hong Kong. The diary recounts his training in the United Kingdom with 23 other Chinese naval officers and his subsequent participation in D-Day. Lam's written records are hitherto the only primary source of Chinese participation in D-Day. By December 2024, the exhibition has attracted up to 8,000 visitors. The team has also received interest from over 40 secondary schools, organising 23 school tour groups, with a total of over 820 students visiting the exhibition. Students visiting the exhibition ranged across government schools, aided schools, schools under the Direct Subsidy Scheme (DSS) and international schools. Moreover, the team has created an education program to foster initiatives for community-driven individuals. "The curatorial team hopes to encourage more like-minded individuals to enrich Hong Kong's diverse cultural landscape, playing to their own interests and expertise," said co-curator Angus Hui. "In striving to encourage young people to take action in cultural preservation, the team has launched the H-Infinity program to share our curatorial experience and resources, in order to nurture similar community engagement projects in Hong Kong". After the exhibition at the Chinese University of Hong Kong Library concludes, it will move to London in February as the first stop of the international tour. "With Lam's participation in D-Day, our exhibition is committed to highlighting the long-standing connections, friendships, and solidarity between East and West", opined co-curator John Mak. "Building on the momentum in Hong Kong over these past few months, we will continue to bring this fascinating Hong Kong story to Europe, offering a unique historical perspective to audiences worldwide." New Breakthroughs in Historical Research After the exhibition launch, the curatorial team successfully contacted the family members of Lam Ping-yu, the owner of the diary, in Hong Kong, the United States, and Brazil. This helped the team's research on Lam's life from the 1920s to 2000, and his connections to Hong Kong. In mid-December last year, the co-curators travelled to the East coast of the United States to meet with Lam's direct descendants, gathering more information to further historical research. Exhibition Details Date: September 23rd, 2024 to January 24th, 2025 Address: Digital Lab, G/F University Library, Chinese University of Hong Kong Opening Hours: 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Fee: Free Entry Hashtag: #D-Day The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement. About Lost and Found in Hong Kong: The Unsung Chinese Heroes at D-Day Aiming to highlight the enduring cooperation and connections between Chinese and Europeans, the exhibition showcases an overlooked piece of World War II history by uncovering the journey of a group of Chinese naval officers from Chongqing to the Normandy Landings (D-Day). The project received support from nine universities and five museums in Asia and Europe, the Hong Kong consulates of France, Belgium, the UK, and the EU, as well as numerous local historians and NGOs.
