A witty and profoundly moving talk that will change the way you look at education. Sir Ken Robinson makes a case for creating an education system that nurtures creativity, rather than undermining it. With ample anecdotes and witty asides, Robinson points out the many ways our schools fail to recognize -- much less cultivate -- the talents of many brilliant people. "We are educating people out of their creativity," Robinson says. The universality of his message is evidenced by its rampant popularity online. A typical review: "If you have not yet seen Sir Ken Robinson's TED talk, please stop whatever you're doing and watch it now."

Kieran's first day at school!
Kieran started his first day at the Lingnan Nursery (Cantonese class) on Monday 6th August. All went surprisingly smoothly - probably because his parents were there! Mummy found crafty ways to get him into his school uniform and feel proud of it.

Now he is the little boy who brings us daily joy, opens our hearts and challenges our imaginations!
