Two Form Six students will go to Scotland for two weeks to promote Chinese culture and experience life in Europe thanks to a scholarship from the Rotary Club of Tai Po.
Law Ting Pong Secondary student Florence Cheung Choi-ki, 17, and Mabel Chu Yin-ting, 18, of Immanuel Lutheran College, will fly to Scotland on May 20.
They will stay with a host family until June 4 under the arrangement with the Rotary Club of Kirkcaldy, Scotland.
The international service director of the Rotary Club of Tai Po, Donald Chan Wai-kee, said the scholarship provides an opportunity for cultural exchange.
Two Scottish students will come to Hong Kong in September.
During the selection process, Mabel and Florence had to write and present a proposal on how to promote Chinese culture in Scotland and how to arrange activities for the Scottish students when they come.
Mabel said she would put emphasis on traditional Chinese calligraphy and architecture when she is in Scotland.
