On 1 November 2025, the Parent-Teacher Association, in collaboration with the Career and Life Planning Committee, hosted the inaugural session of the Parent Academy. This engaging event focused on the theme of “Learning Stress and Motivation”.

We would like to express our gratitude to our guest speaker, Dr. Charles Yu Tak Shun, for his inspiring sharing. Dr. Yu is an esteemed lecturer in applied psychology and counselling, with a specialisation in Emotional Intelligence (EQ). He serves as the Director of Charles Yu Training Company Limited and is the Chairman of the Centre of Marriage & Child Guidance.

During his talk, Dr. Yu shared valuable insights on several key topics:
1. How to distinguish between “positive stress” and “harmful anxiety”
2. Understanding the key elements of your child’s intrinsic motivation
3. Practical parent-child communication skills: Helping children overcome frustration and build confidence
4. Building a family support system that makes you your child’s emotional recharging station
The seminar equipped parents with strategies to transform their children’s stress into a powerful motivator, reigniting their passion for learning. We look forward to future sessions that continue to support parents in fostering the healthy development of our students.
