As part of the preparation for the School-Based Assessment (SBA) component in the English curriculum, which is one of the scoring compenents of HKDSE, the English department has organized this English movie appreciation activity. By watching the film “Arthur the King”, students will gain an understanding of, and reflect on, the important values portrayed in the movie, such as justice, courage, and loyalty. This activity also aims to cultivate students’ English listening skills and critical thinking abilities. Through watching and discussing this thought-provoking film, students will deepen their comprehension of these core values and contemplate how to apply them in their own lives. We are confident that this activity will not only inspire students in their SBA preparation, but also impart positive influences on their future personal growth.

Interestingly, students have expressed that after watching this film, they have received great inspiration and ideas that have benefited their SBA preparation. The values exemplified in the movie not only prompted their reflections, but also provided a valuable wellspring of creativity for their writing.
