Tak Sun is founded on Catholic Christian values, incorporates the involvement of parents in the education of their children and encourages their own personal growth as parents.[3]

History

In March 2006 the school invited a comprehensive review of its activities by the Faculty of Education of the University of Hong Kong. The resulting report was generally positive, but identified deficiencies in academic rigour that required addressing.[2]

School facilities

The school has a multimedia learning center, student activity center, a comprehensive learning center, language rooms, auditorium, laboratories, computer rooms, a library, a fitness room, football court, handball court, basketball court, badminton courts, athletics track and a small church.[4]

gollark: Oh, it's one of those federated whatevers.
gollark: They can't enforce that decentralizedly.
gollark: It's bad on flash because you destroy it rapidly. Phones use flash storage. Thus, fear.
