SH Gold Apple's online courses ran the duration of lockdown. How did students and teachers fare at home? Armed with stationery and books, students sat in front of screens, focused on courseware and did homework as usual. Teachers asked questions and waited for students to respond positively. Assignments were handed in on time as usual. In the spring afternoons, students did fitness activities such as badminton, running and golf. They also made delicious lunches for their families. SH Gold Apple stayed firm in the belief that all the good things would come back and everyone could pick themselves up and start again! The school guards the safety and health of the campus, and embraces a more brilliant and beautiful year.
