Form 2 “National Security and Me” Guangzhou and Shenzhen 2-day Study Trip

All Form 2 students recently embarked on a meaningful two-day study tour on 18 and 19 Oct, which was organized by Social Seed (社企苗) and Dynamic Youth of Greater Bay Area (大灣區青年新動力). This exchange tour aimed to engage students in experiential activities related to national security and broaden their perspectives.

During the trip, students had the privilege of visiting various locations in Guangzhou and Shenzhen, including Jinan University, the Sinopec South China Safety Training Base, the Shenzhen Red Cube Science and Technology Museum, the Shenzhen Aerospace Agriculture Science and Technology Demonstration Park, and a production facility specializing in microchips.

Through these enriching experiences, it is hoped that students gain a deeper understanding of national security, science, and technology, fostering a stronger sense of responsibility toward their country.

Prize Presentation of the Dreamcatchers Program

We are delighted to announce the successful prize presentation for the Dreamcatchers Program, which is a school-based Career Guidance and Life Planning program, established to encourage our boys to broaden their exposure in different career fields, fostering self-understanding and the actualisation of personal goals.

This year, our students demonstrated exceptional involvement and dedication, leading to remarkable accomplishments. We are proud to award 2 Diamond Awards, 3 Gold Awards, and 13 Silver Awards to students who participated in various programs.

The program would not have been a success without the concerted efforts of our alumni from different fields and professions. Our heartfelt gratitude is extended to Mr. Chan Cho Man and Mr. Shum Tak Wai, who represented the generous donations from our esteemed graduates of 1976. Their support has been invaluable in making the Dreamcatchers Program a success.

A special thanks also goes to Mr. Kwong Cheuk Yin, the chairman of the SFXCAA, for his tremendous efforts in outsourcing the Dreamcatchers Program. His commitment has played a crucial role in providing these enriching opportunities for our students.

Congratulations to all the award recipients! Your hard work and perseverance are truly commendable, and we look forward to celebrating even more achievements in the future.

Gatekeepers' Team-building and Adventure Training

This year, our Gatekeepers, a group of 39 students from Forms 2 to 5, are dedicated to fostering a supportive environment that promotes mental health and emotional well-being at school.

On October 5th, they took part in a day of adventure training, aimed at strengthening their teamwork and skills for their vital role in mental health promotion. One highlight was zip-lining across the school playground, where they pushed their limits on the high ropes with guidance from instructors, as their peers encouraged them. This challenge fostered trust within the team.

In another exercise, they climbed a tall, narrow pole with their teammates securing the base. Through communication and teamwork, they reached the top, reinforcing their bond.

The day enhanced the Gatekeepers' leadership skills and strengthened their commitment to spreading wellness messages throughout the school.

Students' Visit to HKU LKS Faculty of Medicine

On the afternoon of October 3, 26 of our Senior Form students had the remarkable opportunity to visit the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Hong Kong. The visit was both educational and inspiring, providing students with valuable insights into medical education and career paths.

We were honored to have our alumnus, Professor Chung Pui Hong, shared his insights into the medical field, inspiring our students to pursue their passion for medicine. Students attended informative admission talk about the Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) and Nursing programs. These sessions provided essential information about the application process and the unique opportunities offered by HKU's Faculty of Medicine.

Additionally, students participated in an AR Education Workshop in Ophthalmology. This hands-on experience allowed them to better understand the symptoms of various eye conditions and the critical importance of effective treatments.

The visit concluded with another enlightening sharing session from our recent graduates, Mr. Winston Wong and Mr. Ryan Lam who are currently enrolled in the MBBS program. Their first-hand sharing of their experiences at HKU offered our students valuable perspectives on what to expect in their future studies.

We are grateful for the opportunity to connect our students with such esteemed individuals and institutions. This visit not only broadened their understanding of the medical field but also inspired them to consider their future paths with enthusiasm.
