Dear Youth College (International) Parents, Students, and VTC Colleagues,

Welcome to the first issue of the Youth College (International) Newsletter. The YCI newsletter is a new source of information about our students’ achievements and activities, supplemented with the most recent updates from our graduates and other important information that will not only benefit our students’ personal development, but also provide parents with regular updates on the latest news at Youth College (International).

After another difficult year with unprecedented challenges, I would like to start by thanking all our students, their parents, and our staff for their continuous effort in overcoming new challenges and adapting to the new ways of teaching and learning. The pandemic did not stop our students from learning, exploring, and achieving new achievements. In this issue of our newsletter, you will find how our students are coping with the ongoing pandemic with appropriate personal protection measures, and keep participating in extra-curricular activities to broaden their horizons. Our engineering students also made us proud by winning two awards at the Innovation and Technology Festival. As the Latin saying goes, “per aspera ad astra”, or “through adversity to the stars”, I believe with the effort of everyone at YCI, the light at the end of this long tunnel will shine upon us soon.

On behalf of everyone in Youth College (International), I wish you and your loved ones a happy New Year and the best of luck in the year 2022. Now, at the beginning of a new year, I hope our students can continue 2021’s good work, participate in more activities and achieve excellence in their own ways. I also encourage the parents, to remain involved in your children’s education, by keeping the line of communication open, by keeping an eye on the latest news at Youth College (International). With your support, I know this year will be a fruitful and successful year for every one of us.

With great pleasure and pride, I welcome you to our first newsletter. Please get ready to be amazed by the talents and capabilities of our students.

KWOK Lung Kei, Jerry
Principal

      剛剛過去的2021年為我們帶來前所未有的挑戰。首先,我想向本院各位學生、家長及職員致以謝意,感謝你們在充滿挑戰的環境下,持續克服新的困難,適應學習及教學的新方法。持續的疫情並沒有停止本院學生探求知識,成就卓越。在這期通訊中,你會了解到本院學生如何在疫情環境下,以適當的個人保護措施,繼續參與不同的課餘活動,拓寬個人視野。本院職專國際文憑(工程)的學生亦在「中學生創新創意科技節」中舉辦的創科馬拉松奪得兩項獎項,令我們倍感自豪。「長風破浪會有時,直掛雲帆濟滄海」,疫情終會結束,我期待與各位一道在沒有疫情的環境下工作、學習。
