Preparing Students for a Fast-Changing Future: Creative Schools Continuum Explores the Future of Learning at “Transforming Education 20/40” Symposium
The event, held as part of the 20th anniversary celebration of Creative Secondary School and the 40th anniversaries of Creative Primary School (CPS) and Creative Primary School’s Kindergarten (CPSKG), focused on a central question: How can schools equip students to navigate an unpredictable future while also cultivating their character, compassion, sense of purpose, and resilience?
Putting Humanity at the Centre of Learning
Mr. Victor Fong, School Supervisor of the Creative Schools Continuum, opened the symposium by stressing the importance of keeping humanity at the core of education in the AI era. He called for schools to prepare students for a more complex world where values, attitudes, and ethical thinking remain essential.
CSS Principal Stephen Hindes extended this vision, noting that schools should move beyond traditional teaching methods to create environments where young people are motivated to explore, question, and grow.
After a performance by students who took part in the 2025 Kuliang Friendship U.S.-China Youth Choir Week, Dr. Spencer Fowler, Head of Li Po Chun United World College, delivered the keynote address. He discussed the importance of finding purpose in an era of technological acceleration, arguing that while algorithms have their place, a clear sense of purpose remains the most vital element in student development.
From Theory to Practice: Educators and Students Respond
The symposium also featured keynote sessions by Dr. Cecilia Tam, Manager of Ph.D. Research Degree Programmes at City University of Hong Kong, and Mr. Maurice Chong, CSS alumnus and Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia honoree, who founded the sports technology company KNO.
Dr. Tam focused on mindfulness and the importance of staying focused in an information-saturated age, while Mr. Chong explored how students can adapt and grow alongside AI, drawing on his experience as an athlete, AI researcher, and entrepreneur.
Participants also joined two rounds of concurrent workshops led by AI and Ed-tech professionals, exploring topics such as digital mindfulness, character development, innovative classroom integration, and so on.
The student panel, moderated by Ms. Ruth Benny of Top Schools, provided symposium participants with the opportunity to hear from students about their experiences studying at CSS. The students describe CSS as a place where they can learn from mistakes with the support of their teachers, while developing leadership, discipline, and a strong sense of responsibility. They also shared their concerns about staying competitive as AI advances, the anxiety brought on by social media, and the challenge of making ethical choices when using AI tools. Their reflections offered authentic perspectives on how young people are actually experiencing the changes that adults are planning for.
Teachers as Guides, Not Just Instructors
The second panel, moderated by Ms. Ruth Benny, brought together Dr. Cecilia Tam, Principal Stephen Hindes, and Mr. Maurice Chong. Their conversation explored a range of forward-looking issues: the reimagined assessments, AI-accelerated learning, and why human values matter more as automation spreads. The panel concluded that the role of educators must shift from delivering information to guiding students towards self-directed learning.
The “Transforming Education 20/40” Symposium underscored the Creative Schools Continuum’s commitment to preparing students not just for academic success, but for meaningful lives in a rapidly evolving world. As technology reshapes learning, educators are redefining their roles as mentors who prepare young people to understand AI, use it wisely, and contribute meaningfully to society.

The Taiwan-born pet mobility brand opens its first SoHo pop-up inside Flying Solo, bringing its Nordic-designed pet stroller collection to the heart of New York City.
NEW YORK, USA – Media OutReach Newswire – 02 April 2026 – FikaGO, the design-led pet mobility brand recognized across Asia and Europe, has opened its first New York City pop-up store inside Flying Solo in SoHo. The opening marks a deliberate move for a pet brand into one of the world’s most competitive retail districts.
Since entering the online American market in 2025, FikaGO has built a growing community of pet parents who see their animals as a central part of everyday life. Positioned as lifestyle essentials rather than conventional pet gear, FikaGO’s range of products is designed for people who want the best for their fur babies.
“We’ve always believed that pet products should not only be functional, but also beautifully integrated into everyday life.” — Eric Guu, Co-founder, FikaGO
SoHo was a considered choice: Flying Solo, with locations in New York and Paris, is known for championing independent design with a distinctly global sensibility.
The pop-up showcases FikaGO’s auto-folding Free To Go 2 in Sandy Beige, the brand’s bestselling product. All FikaGO’s products are manufactured using eco-friendly fabrics made from recycled materials, reflecting a commitment to sustainability. This includes their large-capacity Agile 2 pet strollers to their airline-approved Truffle carriers and the heavy-duty Kross pet wagon.
“Launching in SoHo is a meaningful milestone for us; it allows customers to truly experience the quality, design, and intention behind every FikaGO product.” — Eric Guu, Co-founder, FikaGO
As pet ownership rises globally, particularly among urban millennials and Gen Zs, demand for products that combine functionality, design, and lifestyle integration continues to grow. FikaGO was built for precisely this moment, and SoHo is precisely where that moment lives.
