We believe that learning happens outside classrooms as well as inside. In line with Ignatian Pedagogical Paradigm (IPP), we emphasise experiential learning. Most student activities at Wah Yan are planned and run by students themselves, while teacher advisors guide students towards the Planning, Implementing, Evaluating (PIE). We believe that the skills to make things happen can only be acquired through getting one’s hands dirty. As a result, we have more than 30 School Organisations, Clubs and Societies, all operated by Wahyanites. School Organisations report to different functional groups while Clubs and Societies are affiliated to the Student Association.
