Congratulations to Au Ting Hei Oscar 6B for his being honoured at the award ceremony of 2015/16 Hong Kong Budding Poets Award this afternoon (27 May). Oscar is the "Poet of the School", "Commendation" prize winner and titled "Best Improviser of the Year".
The last time our student got the Best Improviser of the Year award was 5 years ago. In a traditionally girl-dominated event like this, it is so exciting to see that Oscar managed to get prestigious prizes at the ceremony. I am particularly moved by the fact that Oscar's improvised work made him top of this elite group of budding poets! This award has always been really hard to get and it reflects truly the poetry talent of the candidate because he/she has to write on the spot. We should all be proud of him for his achievement!
I hope that Oscar will continue to enjoy poetry and other forms of creative writing. It is only the start of his literary journey.
