Our 9 English Student Ambassadors today!

First handshake - Ambassador Reinhold Liu and guest Mr Tomlinson

Student Ambassador Vincent Song and guest Sir Clifton-Brown

A group of nine, including Parliamentary Delegates from the UK, representatives of the Education Bureau and the Information Services Department, visited our school this morning (12 Apr). Although it was a brief visit of around one hour, they were still hugely impressed by our string orchestra and drum team’s performances, as well as the bits and pieces they heard and saw from our Junior Choir and English Drama Team.

They also found our school very creative both in the design of the classes that we attend, and the design of the various places around the campus. And I bet they must have enjoyed our high level of hospitality a lot too!

As a student ambassador myself (I had the honour to take care of the group’s leader Sir Clifton-Brown!), I’m glad to say that it is a great experience and it will definitely stay with me throughout my whole life. Hope all the delegates and representatives enjoyed their visit. And...a big thank-you to our headmistress, supervisor, and to all the teachers and students who took part in welcoming the guests today!

What a great experience to all parties! Happy for you Vincent and all other ambassadors this morning. I seldom follow visitors to tour around the school and I too was impressed in this one-hour tour summarizing our school's features! The power of music, the variety of learning opportunities, the English proficiency/environment, the professional reception/school management, the supreme efficiency etc...all these tell people how unique we are and what education should really bring out. Exquisite and extraordinary!

I, as a fellow ambassador of Yesterdays event am in complete agreement with Vincent.
This is the first time thet I have ever interacted with a British citizen ( I had the honor of leading Mrs Frances Tomlinson, wife of Michael Tomlinson, PM on the tour ) And I was throughly excited when I was informed that I had been elected as the school ambassdor this time. It has been an unforgettable experience for all of us who participated in this event. It has been a huge honor of ours to host such a tour, and we all thank our guests for choosing our school to visit.
I will also hereby give a word of thanks. To all fellow classmates who helped participating in this event: Thankyou for your hard work. To all the teachers : Thankyou for guiding and helping us make this event go so smoothly. And thank you, to our school, for giving us such a wonderful experience.

I am glad to lead Madam Baroness Northover. It was my first time to lead a British citizen in the school. The whole trip was smooth and I was satisfied. Madam Baroness seems to be very inquisitive about the life in our school and those items like the 3D printer and the Mbot. Thank our school to organize this event and let me have this opportunity to serve these guests. This is an unforgettable experience for me.

It is out of my imagination to have received such an honor to join the English Ambassador team to host the tour for the UK Parliamentary Delegates. It's my pleasure to accompany Ms. Sarah Champion MP (Member of Parliament for Rotherham, Former Shadow Secretary of State for Women and Equalities) to walk around our school. I, right after her introduction, stepped forward and extended my warmest welcome without further ado. It followed with laughter and handshake. During the tour, Ms. Sarah Champion MP was very interested in arts. You know what, she was the CEO of the Chinese Arts Centre in Manchester from 1996 to 2008.
I felt extraordinarily exhilarated when I firstly meet her. She looks solemn in the photo, yet she isn't. She is really nice and friendly. Frankly, this is definitely one of the most amazing and memorable experience to be an English ambassador in my school life.
To accomplish this wonderful and challenging event, I'm really grateful to the teachers, fellow schoolmates and our school. These rare opportunities are only available in YWPS, not elsewhere. A deep thanks from the bottom of my heart!

I have never thought that I can have the honor to bring the British Parliament, EDB and Information Services Department delegates around the school. We did our best to guide and tell them about the school. I could tell that they were extremely impressed by our orchestra, drum and drama team. They wouldn't have left the drama team nor the choir's training rooms unless they have ended!
In a nutshell, the experience was the best and most unforgettable in my school ambassador life.

I am very honored to be one of the student ambassadors to show the U.K. Parliamentary delegates around the school. Mr. Tomlinson MP and I had a marvelous time. He was so impressed by our new swimming-complex. He said that the architectural structure was extremely gorgeous and even joked that he would like to jump in and have a swim. Mr. Tomlinson plays crickets at the Lords and Commons Cricket Club and he said Hong Kong should have more special sport variables.
Once again, thank you Mrs.Lam and Dr.Lee for giving me such a memorable opportunity.

I totally agree with you, Vincent! Our guests were amazed when they saw the varied facilities. I really hope that will make an everlasting and pleasant memory on them.
At last, thank you Mrs Lam and all the other teachers who organized this wonderful experience for us!
