Academic Activities
The History and Chinese History Departments co-organised a field trip to the Hong Kong Palace Museum in June 2026, during a special exhibition showcasing treasures from Egyptian museums. Our students gained the opportunity to explore various primary sources from ancient Egyptian and Chinese civilisations, developing a deeper appreciation and understanding of diverse ancient world cultures.
Outstanding Achievement
We are delighted to share that our students excelled in the 2025 Junior History E-Reading Scheme, organised by the Education Bureau (EDB). They were honoured with the Academic Award for their insightful project, which explored how the international community demonstrated cooperation, empathy, and benevolence while facing hardships and striving to maintain world peace after the Second World War.
