Awardees of the previous years also joined the event. Following the ceremony, awardees shared their campus life and the impact of receiving the award with Ms Irene Ng.
The Award Scheme has benefitted numerous outstanding students since its establishment, with nearly two hundred VTC students being recognized. These students have made remarkable contributions to vocational education and youth development in Hong Kong.
