News Flash - Our Mong Kok Centre students Ace the DSE!

The results are in and I am bursting with pride for our Mong Kok Centre students who sat for the Hong Kong Diploma of Secondary Education Examination (DSE)!

This year we had six students who sat for their DSE, but in many ways they had already passed before they even sat the exams. During the exam preparation period the fifth wave of the pandemic was at its peak. This meant that all the schools, libraries and parks were closed, and since these students came from low-income families, they were all confined to their unimaginably cramped, shoe-box sized sub-divided apartments. The fact that these six could maintain a positive attitude and persevere with their studies is truly incredible!

'Cooking is at once child's play and adult joy. And cooking done with care is an act of love.' I believe that cooking can also be an inspired tool for building community.

Christian Action has been blessed with some truly wonderful partner companies who have a real heart for our mission. Just recently for example, the staff from Ares SSG participated in a cooking class we held for children in our after-school childcare programme and it was a blast!

Unity in Diversity

“I am so glad I signed up for this tour. Having now spent a good part of today with members of some of Hong Kong’s ethnic minorities I have gained a deeper appreciation for how hard inclusion is for them. Whether they are new immigrants or existing members of an ethnic minority, we should all show more tolerance towards them.”

- NWS participant Daisy Wong

Hong Kong’s non-Chinese ethnic minorities are a vibrant and colourful part of our community. To help celebrate this diversity and promote social cohesion Christian Action organizes Ethnic Minority (EM) Walks!
