Dear Parents

You may be aware that when there are certain types of elections in Hong Kong, the Education Bureau (EDB) requires that all schools are closed the day after the election has taken place. Doing this allows schools, where required, to be used as polling stations.

There will be District Council elections taking place on Sunday December 10. As a result, EDB has notified us that all schools in Hong Kong should be closed on the following day: Monday December 11. This impacts all of our schools, whether they have been selected as a polling station or not. We have therefore added this date as an additional holiday day to the ESF calendar. You can access the 2023/24 calendar here..

If you require any further information, please do make contact with your school.

As always, thanks for your support.
