Tak Nga Secondary School
Students at Tak Nga Secondary School in Yau Yat Chuen celebrated their English Week from April 30 to May 4 with lots of fun and prizes. Students from all year groups enjoyed themselves tremendously by appreciating one another's projects and participating in many exciting lunchtime and after-school English activities.
There were entertaining English presentations on social issues, while book recommendations were made at each morning assembly. Also, students were thrilled to see so many talented singers at the Girls Band singing contest, and the creativity displayed at the International Costume Parade Competition.
Competing teams worked very hard to enter the finals, staying behind after school on many occasions to prepare themselves to become the best team. It was amazing to see the beautiful costumes, charming singers and screaming crowds. In the words of the participants, they learned to face the crowd with confidence and, even if they didn't win, they were extremely grateful to their teachers and teammates for making their performances so successful and rewarding. Participants were praised for their great teamwork.
In recognition of the students' achievements, awards were presented at the closing ceremony. One of the highlights of the week was when students were shown the best group drama performances and outstanding video projects. They were so fascinating that everybody totally forgot about the time. Although they finished quite late that day, nobody had really noticed! Students said that they look forward to joining the English events again next year.
