From 16 to 20 October 2026, 32 students from our school travelled to Nanshan, Shenzhen, for a five-day, four-night Shenzhen Study Tour. The programme took learning beyond the classroom, through lessons and site visits in a city at the forefront of innovation, and showed how technology meets industry and daily life.
On the first day, students attended the opening ceremony at the BGI Building, and lessons continued there over the following days. On the final day, they set off from Shenzhen Yunhe Technology Co., Ltd. and visited Shenzhen Dream Eagle Technology Co., Ltd. and the Shenzhen World Drone Export Centre, gaining a closer look at the industrial use of drones and the growth of the low-altitude economy.
Through this study tour, our students broadened their horizons and practised punctuality, self-discipline and teamwork. We hope they will turn what they saw and learned into motivation to keep exploring innovation and to contribute to society.
Maker Faire Seoul 2026 is a creative festival centered on the spirit of “the joy of turning imagination into reality.” It brings together a wide range of makers, inventors, designers, technology enthusiasts, and hands-on creators to showcase works made with technology, craftsmanship, and imagination.
The 2026 event will be held from September 19 to September 20, over two days. The program includes maker showcases, interactive experiences, workshops, and diverse activities, making it suitable for families, students, educators, design and technology professionals, as well as anyone interested in innovation and hands-on creation. Through Maker Faire Seoul, visitors can see how ideas are transformed from concepts into tangible works, while gaining the courage and inspiration to create through interaction and exchange. It is an urban creative festival that combines technology, art, education, and community spirit, showcasing the vitality and future imagination of Seoul’s maker culture.
✨ A brilliant blend of art and technology lit up our campus.✨
When innovative technology meets unlimited imagination, what kind of spark will it create?
Man Kwan Pak Kau College is committed to promoting STEAM learning. In this projection mapping workshop, students first explored the basics of light-and-shadow design, then brought their bold ideas to life through creative visual planning and hands-on practice.
When the lights came on, the projection mapping pieces instantly brightened the whole campus. It wasn’t just a visual showcase—it was a meaningful demonstration of how students can combine technology and art in real projects.
Yesterday the campus was alive with Halloween spirit and the lunchtime booths drew bigger crowds than usual. We hosted a variety of stations — mask-making, phonics games, riddles and crosswords — where students made crafts, worked through puzzles, and practised English with teachers and our English ambassadors. Students who completed three booths also earned a spin on the prize wheel for sweets, small gifts and other prizes.
Our basketball, football, handball, volleyball, athletics and badminton teams trained together to prepare for the inter-school competitions! We look forward to seeing more team members join us. Together, we’re stronger!
Our students, To Man Him and Ho Shun Yin, participated in the Do your :bit GBA Challenge 2026 with their project “Corridor Safety Monitor”. Using micro:bit, HuskyLens AI camera and a noise sensor, they designed an innovative solution to improve corridor safety on campus.
Focusing on SDG 3: Good Health and Well-being and SDG 4: Quality Education, the students used AI vision to track movement speed and detect running in corridors. The system also monitors noise levels. When running or excessive noise is detected, it gives instant reminders through a red light, buzzer and OLED display, helping to create a quiet, safe and orderly learning environment.
The competition enabled students to apply programming, artificial intelligence and electronic engineering to real school life. Their project also considered privacy protection by using only numerical data such as speed and noise levels for analysis, without storing students’ images. Through project development and presentation, students demonstrated creativity, problem-solving skills and a caring mindset.
We look forward to seeing our students continue to use technology to bring positive changes to the school and community!
Our school has been actively promoting STEAM education and is committed to nurturing students’ innovative thinking, innovation and technology competence, and problem-solving skills, enabling them to grow and shine on their journey of invention and innovation.
Recently, our students represented Hong Kong as members of the Hong Kong Student Science Project Competition delegation at the 8th International Science and Invention Fair (ISIF 2026), organised by the Indonesian Young Scientist Association (IYSA) and the Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences, Universitas Indonesia. The offline competition was held from 13 to 15 October 2026 at Universitas Indonesia, Depok, Indonesia. The students presented their research project, Silver Stride, and attained the Gold Award in the Technology category, fully demonstrating their outstanding innovation and technology competence, creativity and teamwork.
The award-winning students are as follows:
Technology Category: Gold Award
5A Ho Yan Tung, 5A Lee Ho Ting Javis
Throughout the competition, the students demonstrated excellent teamwork, perseverance in inquiry, and the ability to transform ideas into innovative concepts and practical solutions. From Hong Kong to the international stage, their hard work, dedication and growth throughout the preparation process deserve recognition and appreciation.
This valuable competition experience not only further inspired students’ passion for scientific inquiry, invention and innovation, but also enabled them to exchange experiences with young people from different countries and broaden their horizons, laying a solid foundation for their future learning and development in innovation and technology.
Looking ahead, our school will continue to fully support students in participating in a wide range of invention and innovation activities, providing broader learning platforms and encouraging them to strive for excellence and scale new heights on their journey of innovation.
Congratulations once again to all our students!
Our students recently travelled to Guangzhou for Guangzhou Maker Faire. This major maker event brought together makers, schools and technology teams, giving students firsthand experience of technological exchange, a chance to showcase their learning, and creative inspiration.
At the exhibition, our students presented “靜守者” (Silent Guardian) and “智杵視界” (SmartPole Vision), introducing their design concepts and applications to visitors and exchanging ideas with makers and school representatives. We are delighted that our work also received the Best Design Award.
A special thank-you to our Principal and Vice-Principal for travelling to Guangzhou to support our students in person. Through this exchange, students broadened their horizons, strengthened cross-cultural communication and teamwork, and were inspired to keep exploring and putting ideas into practice.
Enjoy the photo highlights from Guangzhou Maker Faire!

Our S.6 student, Lee Sam Yau achieved remarkable success in the Inter-School Swimming Competition. Following her record-breaking performance last year in the Girls’ Grade A 50m Backstroke at the Yuen Long Inter-School Swimming Competition, she set two new records this academic year—breaking the Girls’ Grade A 50m Breaststroke record with a time of 35.56 seconds, and the 200m Breaststroke record with a time of 2:53.44. Furthermore, her outstanding performance helped lead our school’s Girls’ Grade A Swimming Team to a historic overall team championship! 🏆
