Our school held a local exchange programme
with Christian & Missionary Alliance Sun Kei

th
Secondary School (SKSS) from 2 to 4 May. Six
students from S4 (4B Winnie Cheng & Ray Yu, 4C
Carmen Cheng, Cora Chung, Yvette Ng & Lilian
Yeung) had a taste of the school life at SKSS for
three days.
It is my pleasure to be one of the exchange
students. In this short stint, we received cordial
hospitality from all the teachers and students
of SKSS. When we were in the campus, there
were always some friendly faces smiling to us.
Schoolmates there were nice and they loved chatting SKSS students present gifts to Mr. Au and teachers on their first day of exchange
with us. We told them some funny stories about
CCSC while they shared theirs too. During lessons,
teachers and classmates gave us support whenever
we looked confused. Even though the curricula of
the two schools are not exactly the same and there
were topics that we had not learnt at CCSC, the
teachers of SKSS were more than willing to offer
us help so that we could catch up on the lessons.
After lessons, we joined various school teams and
extra-curricular activities like the Robotic Team,
English Debating Team and Volleyball Team. SKSS
is renowned for robotics and we had a lot of fun
playing in the Lego Maker Lab there. Moreover, our

Day 3 (4 May) was a fruitful day. During
lunch time, we had a little sharing about our global
learning experience. We from CCSC talked about
the trip to Poland and the field trip to Vietnam while
our SKSS counterparts shared their experience from
their trip to Holland. It was indeed a valuable chance
for us to learn from each other. In the evening, SKSS
Student Union organized a BBQ gathering for us and
our classmates at SKSS. To mark this memorable
occasion, we even exchanged our school uniform
with our buddies before the BBQ gathering and took
photos. What a night it was!
