On the morning of 4 July 2024, The Outstanding Young Persons Association, Social Seed, and the Yau Tsim Mong District Office collaborated to host the “DSE Talk (Yau Tsim Mong District)” career event at our school. The event's primary goal was to provide students with guidance to help them make informed decisions regarding their educational and career paths.
During the event, Dr. Chong Shuk Ching, the Vice-chairperson of The Outstanding Young Persons Association and recipient of the HK TOYP Award in 2018, shared her career journey. From selecting elective subjects in secondary school to becoming a Specialist in Genetics and Genomics (Paediatrics), she emphasised the importance of setting goals and creating long-term plans.
The second speaker Ms. Louise Kwong, a renowned soprano and HK TOYP Awardee in 2019, shared her passion for music and perseverance in the field. She discussed the essential qualifications required for musicians and highlighted the challenges faced in establishing a music career in Hong Kong. Additionally, she performed for the students, adding a special touch to the event. The students gained valuable insights from the speakers, learning that pursuing dreams in any field requires clear goal-setting and persistence.
A special acknowledgment goes to our esteemed alumnus Mr. Pun Chi Ho, Steven, who played a pivotal role in initiating and organising the talk at his alma mater.
