Turning Stress into Success
October 5, 2016, 9:30amThree Mackerels Cafeteria, GSIS
We all can attest to how stress affects us both mentally and physically, particularly when we already feel overwhelmed. We also know how stress can affect our kids when met with academic and social pressures.

Fancy from Balance Health, a natural health clinic in Hong Kong, will lead us through an exploratory session around the various mindsets which consume our energy, while offering simple techniques for self-management to help us switch from emotional reactions to empowered responses. Key topics will include: • What is stress and how can we realistically and effectively manage it? • Neuro-responses to stress • How to destress and improve brain function • Energy and self-management techniques for more constructive relationships and parenting When: Wednesday, October 5th from 9:30am to 11:30am Where: The Cafeteria on the 6th floor of the Middle Building Peak Campus Fee: The fee for this talk is 300 HKD per person If you would like to join the talk please send an email to connectgsis@gmail.com by October 1st on the latest .

GSIS Basketball Teams onto a good start in this basketball season
Winning their first basketball game, our Grade A Team opened the season with a 47:24 victory against Sha Tin College in the ESF Basketball Games. Grade B Team came close but lost to the Sha Tin College team. Nonetheless we are confident that our boys will improve throughout the season and we can’t wait to see the growth in skills as they continue to practice and play against different schools!
Congratulations on the win and keep on hustling!

Edith ChowExcuse me, I don't mean to sound rude, but were you informed that the GSIS Girls B Grade basketball team also participates in the same league and won their first match (58-15)? GSIS always says that equality is important, and in this society, it is hard to believe that this kind of overlooking of girls' achievements in favour of boys' still exists.

Frank Dikötter, Humanities Professor at HKU brought modern Chinese history back to life at GSIS
Detailing the policies under Mao Zedong, the founding father of the People’s Republic of China, Professor Dikötter spoke about the motives, strategic scheming and tragic consequences of the Great Leap Forward and Cultural Revolution. Our Y12 and Y13 students thoroughly enjoyed the lecture, asking sound questions such as the verification of historical documents in China at the end.
After such a brilliant lesson by Professor Dikötter, our students have gained yet another perspective of the world’s history. Thank you Professor Dikötter for joining us!

Famed explorer John Pilkington tells exciting stories of geographical adventures to GSIS students
Following Marco Polo’s footsteps on a less-travelled branch of the Silk Road, John Pilkington explored Tajikistan and Afghanistan in search of the source of the River Oxus, the longest river of Central Asia. With the company of two horsemen and local guide, John experienced the generous hospitality of the Afghan nomads, trekked across rocky roads and freezing rivers, and finally arrived at the source of the River Oxus, an ice cave where the great river originated.
John painted a colourful and enthralling picture of his journey with photos, completely captivating our students attention by his wonderful tales.
