The Summer Discovery Program 2022 will be at the Repulse Bay Campus on the following dates:

Session 1: 6 June 2022 - 24 June 2022 (15 Days)

Session 2: 27 June 2022 - 15 July 2022 (14 Days)

Students will need to be fully vaccinated  to attend the Summer Discovery Program. In line with EDB guidelines a please see below how a student can be classified as being fully vaccinated with 2 doses:

1. Received 2 doses + 14 days have passed since day of 2nd dose = classed as fully vaccinated with 2 doses.
2. Received 1st dose at least 14 days before Covid infection + full recovery from Covid = classed as fully vaccinated with 2 doses. 
3. Received 1st dose 30 days after full recovery from Covid = classed as fully vaccinated with 2 doses.

Yes, as the Sinovac vaccine is available to children from 3 years old.

Yes, but please check HERE for the Recognized Overseas Vaccine list.

Unfortunately not. The EDB Rules are very clear in that positive tests are only counted as a vaccination if they are over 14 days after the 1st Vaccination.

Yes, at LCSD Venues there are no Vaccine Requirements for Children 11 years and below and for those 12 to 18 years, while double vaccination is required, there is no 14 day rule and medical exemption is taken into account.

The rules relating to School Activities are decided by the EDB (Education Bureau) while the rules for the LSCD Venues are decided by the HAB (Home Affairs Bureau). None of the rules are decided by HKIS; we are just obliged to follow them.

Please view our Courses & Registration page to explore the different courses being offered during our program, and to begin your registration.

Please be aware that HKIS IS NUT FREE CAMPUS DURING SUMMER PROGRAM.  Information regarding how to order lunch will be updated closer to the program commencement.
