With the aim to explore the breadth of post-secondary education and careers opportunities
available to S5 students, the Careers and Life Planning Education Committee held the S5 Careers
Week from 7th March to 10th March 2016. 130 students paid over 30 visits to governmental
organisations, companies and tertiary institutes. The objectives of the week were four-fold:
1. To encourage them to review your own abilities, interests and career goals.
2. To provide chances for them to better understand the post-secondary education choices available
to you through visiting various tertiary institutes.
3. To raise their awareness of the world of work through attending talks and visiting firms or
governmental organisations.
4. To empower them to make informed choices through setting clearer academic and career goals,
and eventually lead a goal-driven life.
During the week, each student was required to keep a Logbook jointly prepared by the Careers and
Life Planning Education Committee and the English Department. These logbooks were then read by
our English Teachers and graded in terms of the quality of work.
On 16th March 2016, the S5 Careers Week Certificates Presentation Ceremony was held to award
students who completed the tasks in the logbooks very satisfactorily. 37 students were awarded
Certificates of Appreciation and 21 students were awarded Certificates of Excellence. Another 21
students were awarded Certificates of Excellence and Merits.
The Careers and Life Planning Committee would like to congratulate all students on their
outstanding achievements and active participation during the week.
