Counselling Service
To help students develop a fruitful life, SDO provides counselling services (including personal counselling, small-group counselling, development workshops, etc.) for them to understand themselves and explore their potentials.
Whole Person Development Activities
Students are encouraged to develop their potentials and boost their self-confidence through various activities like growth groups, workshops, adventure-based training, self-exploration programmes, peer counselling training and leadership training.
Career Advisory Service
Everyone needs a career. To set a career goal, students should recognise their own values, interest and abilities and understand the market development. Besides organising career activities for students, SDO puts up latest recruitment advertisements and updates online vacancy information regularly.
General Education
We emphasize moral, intellectual, physical, social and aesthetic qualities of each student. The aim of our General Education Programme is to broaden their horizons so as to better understand society, develop independent thinking and sense of responsibility. All full-time first-year students are required to take at least six sessions of General Education. Upon completion, they will be given the Record of Non-Academic Achievements.

Besides, scholarships and awards have been set up to commend the leadership and service of students.

Besides holding athletic competitions, PE Instructors are responsible for training and selecting students to join various competitions.

The modules help them develop positive values and attitudes so as to become responsible citizens to society, our country and the world. Topics include personal development and interpersonal relationship, modern China, Hong Kong Today, PE classes, etc.
