PTSA The Parents Teachers Students Association is a school community organisation which acts as a supportive arm of KGV school. Our aim is to bring together parents, students, teachers and friends of KGV and thereby help to provide the best possible environment and learning experience for all students. Our focus has been to engage the community and act as a bridge between the school and the community. The past year has been a unique one, faced with challenges and unpredicted changes throughout the year. Year 2019 had a promising start, after which we faced the Hong Kong protests followed by the global COVID–19 pandemic, resulting in long school closure between February till mid May 2020. These circumstances led to a very quick move over to online learning. Despite these disruptions, we were still able to serve our parents and students by supporting them through these turbulent times. We worked hand in hand with the school to communicate prompt and accurate information on changes and reported feedback from parents to the school to support continuity of learning. Membership PTSA annual fees continued to be kept at $400 per family. We have succeeded to maintain this fee over the past five years without compromising our services to the community. We offer a wide variety of services, including an onsite uniform and stationery shop, management of lost property, wide variety of events, educational workshops and an exclusive student Identity card with a privilege scheme. PTSA Committee We are grateful to our dynamic parent committee members who voluntarily commit their time and effort towards the betterment of the school and our students. Their valuable input, feedback and advice with the partnership of the school management has helped enhance the learning experience of our students. We bid farewell to three committee members who will be stepping down from the PTSA at the close of year 2019-2020. A huge thank you to Shilpa Dhanuka, Rowena Chow and Stephan Hon for all the time and energy they have put into shaping our committee and adding value to the learning experience of the students. Our new committee will be elected at the coming Annual General Meeting to be scheduled between October and November 2020. Sponsorship We stood firm to our commitment of donating funds to various school projects which provide enrichment opportunities for our students. The total contribution for the year towards sponsorships was HK$153,500.00. o o o
