Talk by Mr Mahbubani on Finding the Funnier Side of Life
Mr Vivek A. Mahbubani, a bilingual stand-up comedian performing both in Cantonese and English, shared with us how to find the funnier side of life during the morning assembly. While observing others’ seemingly trivial acts, he inspired us to turn those ordinary or upsetting things into a fun part of life. He further encouraged us to record those small acts on a regular basis so as to keep our curiosity in life, making us more willing to embrace the unknown and make connections with others.

Let’s Workout Together Programme
The fifth wave of COVID-19 posed many challenges to students. In order to encourage students to maintain a healthy lifestyle at the height of the pandemic (March to April), the Physical Education Department launched a programme called Let’s Workout Together to encourage students to exercise more in order to improve their physical strength. They were encouraged to form groups with their schoolmates to take part in different sports, such as jogging, yoga, walking, and stretching etc. They worked out together online at home.
