7 Oct 2007 - FHS Day Camp

萬眾期待的FHS Day Camp在一片熱鬧聲中曲終人散,
各人皆帶著愉快的心情回到U circle
各自引鑽石磨練過程為鑑,繼續追尋自己的目標。

FHS 為一年級同學而設的First year enhancement重頭戲
集老師,mentors及mentees的努力
好評如潮,謹轉載鄧同學的回饋


這次DayCamp可說是辦得十分成功,Mentors與Mentees的投入促使大家也有所得著。Trainer Carmen每句說話都是一個提醒,雖然她說的並不是新東西,從第一天踏入大學校園開始,相信很多人也知道要為自己定下study plan,但是真正去做,而又認真去做的相信不會有很多人,可能因為大家開始忙碌的生活後,便把這東西遺忘了,其實一次的提醒,足以改變未來的所走的路。這次活動除了提醒了自己一些重要的東西外,亦是汲取做leader經驗的一個好機會。怎樣才可以讓mentees在這個camp中獲得最多離開?何時引導他們思考?何時要作出提醒?何時只作旁觀者?這些技巧也是要磨練,而這次camp則給予我發揮的機會。

相中以紙皮建成的是大家的理想城市,
經過多番協調,統籌及無數提供適時協助,不望回報的援手
理想城市已經深刻地留在我們的心裡
成為我們的大學生活回憶

希望日後大家不要忘記身旁的良師益友 =]

22 Sep 2007 - Book Hunt

It was the first event organized after school started. There were lots more apart from shopping for books in Book Hunt, participants had lunch with the teachers and share their views and ideas with them.
Unlike the previous years, foreign students can now apply for CityU and have their degree here, some of them also participated in this event. So that's why the notice said "Please check if you have a China Visa."
Participants love this event and as new books are needed in Semester B, they would like to go again. So, that's it, Book Hunt will be back! Next time, there will be more time for books^^


Most of us enjoied the valuable trip on Shenzhen railway, and the nice Chinese cuisine at a fancy restaurant. It is a great experience for everyone to know more about the daily lives in Shenzhen and to get a good deal on leisure, audio-visual materials and reference books.

24 Aug 2007 - Orientation Day and Mentor-Mentee Meeting

24 Aug 2007 was a busy day for the CTL freshmen. In the morning, they participated the faculty and departmental orientation, then in the afternoon, the first Mentor-Mentee Meeting.

All student mentors gathered outside Lt-18 and took a grand remarkable group photo. Then the team split and carried out different tasks, e.g. fascilitating the departmental orientation, preparing the venue for lunch.

The mentors and mentee had lunch together after the orientation in the canteen. While having lunch, we chatted casually. Yummy food provided by the school canteen.

The Mentor Mentee Meeting started at three and, after the short warm welcoming speech by Mr. Kenneth Au, the coordinating teacher of the Mentoring Scheme, we introduced the facilities and electronic medium through different keynotes. Some mentors talked about the wonderful life of being an intern or an exchange student. We shared our joy and happiness with the mentees and hope they will love CityU as much as we do.

After the keynotes, we led the mentee to different classrooms for group discussion. We answered questions raised by our mentees, and hope we cleared their doubts.

We strongly believe that through the Mentor-mentee meeting, our mentees can grow and develop to a whole person, and love their new environment, CityU, as much as we do.
