To all guests, alumni, and friends of our school,

The incident in Tai Po has caused profound sorrow in our community. We wish to express our solidarity with all affected families. We extend our deepest condolences to the victims and offer our sincere sympathies and support to the injured individuals and their relatives.

In these difficult times, the 20th Anniversary Open Day celebrations this Saturday and Sunday have been cancelled. The Admission Information Day, encompassing all admission talks, open classrooms and learning displays, will still be held as scheduled on both days. We view this event as an important opportunity for our community to gather and offer mutual support.

Furthermore, the Homecoming Party scheduled for Sunday will be postponed. Details of the new arrangement will be announced at a later date. We understand the heavy hearts many are feeling at this time. We look forward to gathering with our alumni in the future.

We sincerely invite the public to continue supporting our Admission Information Day. Let us also keep the victims in our thoughts, remembering the value of life and the importance of mutual support.
Thank you for your understanding and compassion.

Sincerely,
HKUGA College

2 November 2019 – BASF Kids' Lab Challenge - 1st Runner Up

Kenneth Lloyd Hilton and Tan Ching Hsi, Austin from S5CH joined the BASF Kids' Lab Challenge 2019 held on 2nd November at the Chinese University of Hong Kong.

They both are passionate about protecting the environment. They worked hard to decide on an experiment that would be able to bring the most change to the planet. They found that people use disposable plastic way too often, especially in the food industry. Thus, with a dream to reduce plastic waste, they came up with a sustainable method to produce PLASTATO: making plastic from potatoes.

It was difficult to come up with different ways to teach the “chemistry concept” behind PLASTATO to 6 – 12 year olds. Nevertheless, the boys had a lot of fun doing it, and this is how they creatively came up with using paper clips and Lego to explain the chemistry behind polymers to kids. These fantastic ideas helped them take home the 1st runner up prize! We are very proud of their achievements!
