Accompanied by two English teachers, Mr Li Hang-shun, Timothy and  My favourite

summer in Sydney. Along with Miss Tsui, our Principal, who joined the first presentation.
half of our trip, students were taken good care of and had a wonderful
time in the country of kangaroos and koala bears.

Our host, Tydnale Christian School, provided us with some rewarding
learning moments. Supported by their buddies, STCC students seamlessly
merged themselves into an Australian school life and embraced the
chances to get involved in lessons that are not available in STCC, such as
woodwork and Korean classes. Additionally, it was invaluable for them to
become acquainted with teenagers from a different cultural background.

Apart from the life inside Tydnale, our students explored the City of
Sydney. It was exciting sightseeing some famous scenic spots like The
Opera House and The Rock neighbourhood of downtown Sydney. Besides
the heart of the city, students explored Sydney University; further paving
the way for their decisions about tertiary life later. For sure, all of this,
plus the ice-cream treated by the teachers, helped make their Sydney
exploration an amazing one.

As we know, learning takes place everywhere, and because of this, we
took our students to Featherdale Wildlife Park. It is rare that Hong Kong  Sydney University.
students have a chance to follow a penguin around and walk in their
funny little way, or feed an animal like a kangaroo. Luckily this year, the
kangaroos were nice when they took the food from our students, however,
it has been known for kangaroos to be quite aggressive when hungry.

The English Department runs a study tour to a foreign country every
summer. The reason for these tours is a simple one—we believe students
will discover learning English is fun when they are given authentic
chances to use the language. This year, the trip was certainly a fruitful one
for these 15 participants.
