It was an honour to welcome Dr. SZE Chun Fai, JP, the Hong Kong Under Secretary for Education, to the College for a campus tour, exploring our academic blocks, residential spaces, and various campus facilities while interacting with students and staff along the way.
During the tour, Dr. Sze participated in activities hosted by students as we are currently in the week leading to our Chinese Cultural Evening show on Saturday 25 January, celebrating the Chinese Culture and the Lunar New Year celebrations at the end of January โ early February.
It was a privilege for our community to showcase these experiences that make LPCUWC feel like a home away from home, also reflecting our values of celebration of differences in a community with over 90 nationalities represented.
A special thanks to all the students and staff who helped host Dr. Sze during his visit!

๐ Congratulations to Sosthรจne (Year 1) from Burkina Faso, who was one of the 40 out of 200 participants, selected for the Hong Kong China Rugby (HKCR) Talent ID Academy at the Hong Kong Sports Institute! ๐โจ
This selection is part of a new initiative to recruit young talent into elite-level rugby. Sosthรจne wowed the selectors with his incredible speed, strength, and a remarkable 45-meter kick! ๐ฅ
"My participation in the Hong Kong talent testing day was an incredible experience. I had no prior knowledge of rugby and yet I signed up for this event because I wanted to have fun, which I definitely had. Being selected was a big surprise for me... it's quite a big commitment but at the same time i am excited and can't wait to start my journey in the Talent ID program. "- Sosthรจne
A big shoutout to all the LPC students who participated in the trials! Your hard work and dedication are commendable! Keep pushing forward! ๐
