Orientation Week
Orientation Week
Sunday, 12 September 2010
Orientation Week is over, and hopefully all the new students feel thoroughly welcomed!
Among the many highlights was the trip to The Peak, one of Hong Kong’s “must see” attractions. I accompanied the students from Blocks 2 and 4 on Thursday evening (Blocks 1 and 3 having visited on Tuesday evening). Although the view was a little hazy when we arrived (see the photo above), it was clearer than is often the case, and it provided a great opportunity to photo taking as the city lights were turned on with the onset of the evening.
Because of the wet weather, the show had to be performed in the Sports Centre rather than in the Courtyard as planned. Despite the heat (the air conditioners are presently undergoing major repairs), the show was enjoyed by everyone present - a true celebration of authentic internationalism and multiculturalism!
Hopefully, after the multitude of activities during orientation week, our new students will find time for a good rest before their classes start at 7:30 am tomorrow morning!
