Chinese YMCA Secondary School
The school opened its innovative English Corner (E-Corner) on February 20. An ordinary classroom was converted into a 'groovy home' for students to create a relaxed and fun environment.
The learning resources include board games, movies, storybooks and comics, and all students are welcome to use them. This creates an interest in English, while having fun.
The junior students all enjoy studying there.
During lunchtime and after school, English Ambassadors from Form Three and Form Four help students use the facilities and maintain the rule of 'speak only English'.
Interesting games are held regularly, and continuous participation earns points in the Challenge Log Book, which can be exchanged for sounevirs. The E-Corner lives up to the belief that 'English should not be bound to classrooms'.
