Gathering of Senior Secondary Students
We visit Gansu again in September 2014 to give out bursaries to senior secondary students. The number of schools receiving assistance has increased to three this year. Another batch of students has successfully passed the university entrance examination in June. Of the 60 students, 48 have been offered places in university. We give scholarships to them as an encouragement for them to continue to do well.
In addition to financial assistance and gifts, we arrange activities for the assisted students to help them see the world outside school. This year, with help from good friends, we teach them how to make puppies using balloons. We hold a competition to select the most beautiful puppy. The purpose is to let them express their creativeness and work as a team. They are very engaging. We also bring colourful cards for them to put their thoughts on and take the cards back to the sponsors in Hong Kong. As our visit is close to the Mid-Autumn Festival, most students offer festival wishes.
