Innovation at Kellett
Innovation lessons centre around exciting but challenging project-based learning, allowing students to self-motivate, be reflective and resilient to challenge. We aim to provide students with less structure than other subjects and allow them the opportunity to fail without consequences, so that they can learn to overcome challenges. Innovation at Kellett is about the journey and not the outcome.
Oceanography and Innovation (Y10-11)
Our sustainability approach is solution-focused. We teach the issues, in a way that helps students feel empowered to be part of the solution. Unable to find a Sustainability GCSE appropriate to our context we created our own. Our two-year course, launched in 2023 is part Oceanography (Hong Kong has 263 islands) and part Innovation.
Oceanography delves into the wider challenges facing our oceans and explores coral, once a major feature of Hong Kong. Pairs of students take responsibility for creating an eco-system in tanks, replicating our shorelines to determine how coral thrives, with the aim of returning coral to our shores (students undertake a PADI course as part of their qualification).
