The prize presentation ceremony for the Liberal Studies Project Competition 2010 was held on August 20, 2010 in Rayson Huang Theatre. Over 30 participating teams from different secondary schools in Hong Kong received awards.
The Liberal Studies Project Competition was organized by the Liberal Studies Service and Learning Network (LSSLN) for new senior secondary students in Hong Kong. 75 teams of secondary school students enrolled in the competition. The prize presentation ceremony began with an opening speech given by our guest of honour, Mr Yiu Ming Tak, Principal Curriculum Development Officer (Liberal Studies/ Cross-subjects Learning), EDB. Mr Ken Chiu, Chairman of the LSSLN, then summarized the many activities (including workshops and tutorial sessions) organized for students. He remarked that the whole event was “meaningful and thought-provoking” for students from both secondary schools and Bachelor of Education (Liberal Studies) programme.
Dr Cheung Chi Kim and Dr Ki Wing Wah gave their inspiration and encouragement to the students. The winners of the competition were Form 4 students from Wa Ying College, who presented a comprehensive study on Hong Kong’s private tutoring. Merit awards went to three groups of Form 6 students from Carmel Holy Word Secondary School, Precious Blood Secondary School and Hong Kong Taoist Association The Yuen Yuen Institute No.3 Secondary School.
In 2011, the LSSLN will launch a newly designed “IES Series 2011” as an annual activity series for secondary school students.
