結語

華美外國語學校（香港部）希望學生在學習之餘，也應銘記中華傳統文化。中華傳統文化博大精深，我們希望學生在增長自身的學識的同時，可以潛移默化地吸收中華傳統文化，能夠向「修身、齊家、治國、平天下」的目標邁進。

ConclusionHuamei Foreign Language School (Hong Kong Department) hopes that students should alsokeep traditional Chinese culture in mind while studying.The traditional Chinese culture is extensive and profound, and we hope that students can unconsciously absorb it while increasing their own knowledge, and move towards the goal of "cultivating one"smorality, regulating the family, governing the country and leveling the world".
