Academic Activities
Students participated in a number of field trips and field studies. These trips included the study of local coastal environment, city landscape and visit to T Park. Through a series of field trips, students not only applied the knowledge learnt in textbooks, but they also gained valuable chances to conduct field study, including planning, data collection, and data analysis.
6A Chu Shing Yin, 6D Ng Cheuk Nok and 5A Mok Ka Long participated in the High School Students’ Conference on Inquiry and Practice in Relation to the SDGs.
