With a donation pledged by the Trust, the University launched the ve-
year project, whose aim is to foster
a culturally responsive and effective teaching environment to facilitate
the learning of Chinese by the EM kindergarten students. With the University’s multidisciplinary expertise in child development, curriculum and pedagogy, educational psychology, multicultural education, school leadership and language education, its investigators have contributed to the project through research-based evidence for advancing professional practices and building the capacity
of local kindergartens, as well as supporting parents.

Rugby Education
The University fostered a long-term partnership with the Hong Kong Rugby Union in October 2016 to promote rugby education in local primary and secondary schools. A comprehensive teaching pack was developed to provide both pre-service and in-service PE teachers with the essential skills to teach the sport, in addition to several summer workshops and professional development programmes for more than 250 teachers. Commencing in
the 2017/18 academic year, touch rugby will be incorporated as part of the Bachelor of Education (Honours) (Physical Education) programme.
