After the Fall term examination, our students had a day to relax and hike with the elderly on the morning of Christmas Eve.
The group started off at Wong Nai Chung Reservoir. Accompanied by laughter and scenic views of the Southern District, our volunteers and seniors hiked to Aberdeen Lower Reservoir. During the hike, they talked about many different topics, from schoolwork to elderly life. After the event, our volunteers said the elderly were more energetic than they thought, and they spent a wonderful day together.
