About the Sahib Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji Educational Trust

2. Helping them attain a University Degree in the file of their choice.
3. Helping the Indian Children especially Sikh children to represent themselves in all walks of life.

5. Helping the Indian children especially the Sikh to be good and law abiding citizens of Hong Kong, brave enough to SAY NO to smoking , drinking and use of drugs.

We have now completed almost 5 years of its establishment in Hong Kong and high
lights of previous years as under :-

PERMISSION OF THE EDUCATION & MANPOWER DEPT. OF HONG KONG
In response of our request, the Education and Manpower Department of Hong Kong
SAR granted us permission to hold tutorial classes in the Secondary School in West Kowloon w. e. f Sept.. 2001. We are pleased to state here that tutorial classes for the Secondary School are being run successfully here since Sept. 2001. While for primary classes of SEKPS, the coaching is being imparted at the Gurdwara Sahib,
for secondary classes it is at the school premises after school hours.

EXTENSION OF TUTORIAL CLASSES FOR STUDENTS OF OTHER COMMUNITIES.
In the beginning we had in our mind to help the Indian children only, but we were approached by the School Management to extend these facilities to children of other communities. Keeping in view that there were not enough children of Indian communities and we could accommodate some students of other communities, we opened our doors to students of all communities irrespective of caste, creed, color of nationality. This is strictly in line with the message of our Guru i.e. No Ko Bairi Nahin Begana meaning “there is non of my enemies and non is stranger.”As such, now besides Indian students, there are students from Pakistan, Nepal, Phillipine, Korea Venzulenese etc. who are taking advantage of most subsidized tutorial
classes.

IMPROVEMENT IN THE RESULTS
Significant improvement has been noticed in the results of the students who are attending these tutorial classes. All our tutorial teachers are Post Graduate and dedicated. They are always willing to help them even by devoting extra time.

STUDENTS OF THE TRUST HAVE JOINED COLLEGES.
As stated above, one of the objective of the trust is to encourage them to go for college and university education. We are glad to state here that about 12 of our students have joined Form 6 in Rosery Hill College,in year 2003. It will always be our endeavor to encourage future high school graduates to go for higher education either in Hong Kong or abroad. We have been offering scholarship and or loans to the deserving candidates.

SIR ELLIS KADORIE PRIMARY SCHOOL, SUKUNPOO.
We have observed that some of the students in the secondary school, are not able to cope up with the main subjects like Math and Science. The reason being their weakness in Primary level. We have observed that in case we can catch them young i.e. if we could help them at Primary level, they would be better of , in their secondary schooling. So we requested the management of Sir Ellis Kadoorie Primary School, sukunpoo, to allow them start classes there. After some clarifications, the have allowed us to hold such classes since Dec. 2003. For the time being they have allowed only once in week i.e. on Saturday from 9.00AM to 10.30 AM. Significant improvement has been noticed in the students since then. HERE TOO WE HAVE ALLOWED STUDENTS FROM ALL COMMUNITIES. Very nominal amount of HKD 12 per hour is being charged from the students. Since this school is a feeder school for the SEK secondary school, we are confident, these students would perform better at secondary level.

LI CHENG UK GOVT. PRIMARY P.M. SCHOOL, SHAMSHUIPO, KOWLOON.
During the last few years, most of our Indians especially Sikh families have been allocated subsidized houses by the H. K. Govt. Most of these houses are in New
Territories, far away from the earlier school nick named as Indian School i.e.
Sir Ellis Kadoorie School, Sukupoo, Causeway Hong Kong. As such parents have decided to send their school to the above school which is much nearer and currently at this school, there quite good number of Indian and Pakistani students. Since this school is also a feeder school for the Sir Ellis Kadoorie Sec.School, West Kowloon, we thought of starting tutorial classes at this school also, so that the students could be well prepared when they join secondary school. After negotiations spreading over 2 years, we could convince the management and classes have now started w.e.f Feb.2004. Currently over 55 students are taking advantage of these classes, where a very nominal fee of HKD 12 per hour is charged from the students. HERE ALSO WE HAVE ALLOWED STUDENTS FROM ALL COMMUNITIES TO TAKE ADVANTAGE. The classes are from Primary 1 to Primary 6.
