Primary School (Junior Grade 1-Grade 8)
A message from the Principal, Thabo Metcalfe

At The Harbour School, we believe every child deserves an education as unique as they are.
Since 2007, we’ve been reimagining education in Hong Kong, creating a learning environment where students feel valued, inspired, and empowered to explore their deepest curiosities.
Education at THS transcends traditional classrooms. Students might be engineering solutions in our state-of-the-art Foundry makerspace one moment, then navigating Hong Kong’s waters aboard The Black Dolphin (our 50-foot sailboat) the next. They conduct field research in local mangrove ecosystems, collaborate across age groups on interdisciplinary projects, and tackle challenges that mirror the interconnected world they’ll inherit. This hands-on approach to learning cultivates not just academic excellence, but creativity, resilience, and genuine independence.


From Grades 1 through 8, every student benefits from our commitment to holistic development. Our expert educators craft personalized learning experiences that nurture both intellectual growth and social-emotional well-being. Whether in our marine science lab, art studios, or outdoor classrooms, we’ve designed every space to spark discovery and foster belonging.


Welcome to The Harbour School – where exceptional primary and middle school education comes alive through innovation, exploration, and endless possibilities.
