Campus & Facilities
Immersive Learning Experiences in CAVE
The school actively optimizes the learning environment to enhance students’ learning effectiveness. One of its proudest facilities is InnoCAVE, located within the Solomon Science and Technology Education Centre. This classroom-sized immersive learning space, developed in collaboration with the University of Hong Kong, was previously only available in tertiary institutions.
Through InnoCAVE, teachers across subjects can design immersive lessons that bring abstract concepts to life and inspire students to think, create and collaborate in new ways.

Immersive Learning Experiences with VR Headsets
To extend innovative approaches that enrich classroom learning through VR technology, we introduce VR headsets in classrooms as an alternative solution for teachers. In contrast to a group experience in a CAVE, a VR headset provides an individual experience but offers a deeper level of immersion.
A wide range of ready-made content is available on the market. We have subscribed to resources for several subjects, including IS: Earth Science, Micro World, Dinosaur World, Human Body, Aerospace Technology; and LA: Idiom stories, AI-aided historical figures for higher-order thinking training.

Students contribute to the VR content
We actively engage students in the creation of VR content. All students in Grades 5 and 6 learn to produce interactive VR/AR experiences using Delightex, allowing them to explore virtual worlds with educational purposes on iPads and VR headsets.
Several project-based learning (PBL) groups have developed 3DVR games to enhance their presentations, and three Grade 6 students developed a VR training system aimed at supporting students with special educational needs (SEN).
