At Harrow Hong Kong, we consider charitable and community service as a fundamental principle of our pupils\u2019 leadership education. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The School provides pupils with many opportunities to work selflessly for the betterment of others, to nurture compassionate leaders. There is an expectation that pupils demonstrate a willingness to give their time and effort to benefit another individual or group, without expectation of reward or return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Harrow Hong Kong, the pupils and Houses have great ownership on their charity fundraising. Each Prep School House is paired up with a Senior House, and pupils nominate and vote for their House charity for the following academic year.  Each House pairing has a fundraising focus which includes humanitarian, environmental and animal, local and international charities. Each House also donates a percentage of its fundraising to our permanent School charity, The Crossroads Foundation<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another of the events organised throughout the year\u00a0is a charitable tradition adopted from Harrow School in the UK, which also takes place at Harrow Hong Kong, the\u00a0Long Ducker<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
