Po Leung Kuk "Walking Together" Chinese Mainland Exchange Programs: Planning For the Future, Broadening Horizons

 Po Leung Kuk is committed to providing diverse and high-quality learning opportunities for students in its affiliated schools. It has placed a key focus on creating the "Walking Together" series of Chinese Mainland exchange programs, leading students to travel across the country, with footprints spanning multiple provinces and cities including Beijing, Hunan, Guangxi, and Shanghai.

 The exchange programs are designed around specific topics, with themes covering diverse fields such as aerospace technology, sports culture, artistic heritage, and innovative technology, ensuring that students from different academic backgrounds, abilities, and interests can benefit. By aligning the itineraries with these specialized topics and leveraging the central liaison network of the Kuk, arrangements are made for students to visit professional bases and institutions that are not open to the public. This helps students broaden their horizons, plan for their future, and cultivate deep feelings for our country and home.
