2012 年度學生 / 老師分享


從沒想過，夏天能不出汗。未曾想過在夏天，起床後會冷得發抖，迫不及待地想回到溫暖的被褥中。下雨時，不會拿出雨具，只要把外套上的帽子掛上就可以了。自己準備了一模一樣的早午餐，但依舊吃得滋味。兩星期，我已習慣了這一切。平日早上，我們都要上英語課。在講求互動的教學方式中，我們經常與西班牙，俄羅斯等地的學生進行討論。這種輕鬆的上課模式令我十分投入到課堂中，令我享受到不少樂趣。最重要的是，我對英文的興趣增加了不少，與別人溝通時亦更加自然，這是一份寶貴的得著。兩星期下午部份的旅程很充實，我們到過利物浦博物館，對這座城市有更深入的了解；探究過Beatles，從新認識這著名的樂隊。到過利物浦足球會，認識她的內部文化，一切都是寶貴的經歷。不過要數最難忘的,是到威爾斯的城堡參觀，簡潔而古舊的外牆加上平實的內部，或許沒有展現到奢華的一面，但其散發出那股蒼老的味道，卻有著一股魔力，使人陶醉。那天中午，我們到海邊享受午餐，吃的雖然只是簡單的三文治，但在藍天，白雲和海的襯托下，那份簡單卻變得不一樣。平日積累下來的壓力，因這刻的平淡而得到釋放，那一刻，我感到很舒暢。快樂的旅程終告結束，雖然受到颱風的熱烈歡迎，但我們還是順利地抵達香港。在這裡，很感謝AEA澳洲教育協會的妥善安排和領隊Connie姐姐的盡責，令我們享受到一個愉快的旅程。我們下次再見。 LI Ho Yin, Andy Kwun Tong Maryknoll College Liverpool UK		十多天的旅程使我眼界大開。每天早上上課課後，學校都會帶我們四出遊覽，順道學習英文。在周末更有機會跟寄宿家庭外出活動。在旅途上，我不但認識到英國的風土人情，更有機會跟不同國籍的人士交流，十分難忘。唯一不足的地方就是時間過得太快！轉眼就要返港。有機會我一定會再參加澳洲教育協會的遊學團，認識世界！ LEUNG Shu Wai, Stewart Kwun Tong Maryknoll College Liverpool UK


I met lots of friends who come from different countries. Most of the lessons were great. My most memorable experience during the study tour is that we travelled around the city centre. Also, I 'm glad that we took lots of beautiful photos in Liverpool too. LEE Suet Ting Kwun Tong Government Secondary School Liverpool UK		At school, I learnt that how to communicate with foreign people. Maybe sometimes we couldn't understand each other because of our accents, I learnt to listen carefully and talk with body languages. I also learnt some foreign languages from them. It was fun!!! I was happy being with them! I really enjoy and miss Brighton very much! I even miss my tour guides, teachers and classmates!!I will never forget the days that I had in Brighton. And, also what I have learnt. They are all useful for my future. CHAN Yee Nam, Crystal HKTA Tang Hin Memorial Secondary School Brighton UK


I have learnt to be independent. I can’t depend on my parents. Moreover, I had lots of chance to practice English during these two weeks, for example, chatting with my host family. My host family is really nice. Can have a musical family is really great! They can cook very well. When I chat with them, I can improve my communication skills and also my English. As I don’t speak English at home very often, it was a very good chance. In addition, I have learnt lots of vocabularies and expressions in the English class. They are useful. I also learnt more about England. After this trip, I think I should be more active. I should be brave to meet more friends. Also, it is really a very precious chance for me to know more about the world. LAM Lok Yiu, Charlotte HKTA Tang Hin Memorial Secondary School Brighton UK		My parents' comments: It has provided a rare opportunity for my son to be exposed to other learning experiences and the Australian culture. I am happy and satisfied that my son was able to live independently and meet new overseas friends through this program. My comments: It has been a memorable and rewarding experience I had during my stay in Perth. I have learnt so many new things I can't even count them all! Activities such as rock-climbing, playing didgeridoo and even ice-skating were so much fun! On top of that, I have even met new friends both locally and from abroad.

Jasmine's mom: The tour is very well-organized and fun for the kid. I am very happy about it. I should let my daughter join next year again, for another tour. Jasmine: The tour is wonderful and it's a very previous experience. I miss everything back then and my days with my friends there. We are all very close friends and still stay in touch after the tour. Jasmine NG Chung Yan King George V School Perth AU		I am glad to have this great opportunity to participate this study tour to Perth. I had an unforgettable experience during this tour. Through daily conversation, my oral English standard was undeniably improved. In addition, this tour gave me a chance to experience a new culture and lifestyle in a different country. This widened my horizons and broaden my knowledge. It is crystal clear that this study tour to Perth is a very meaningful program. Moreover, places that I went in Perth, such as Caversham Wildlife Park, Bell Tower and the Perth CBD, are worthwhile for me to go. I also enjoyed staying with the host family in the weekend. All in all, this tour is a very valuable experience for me. KAM Ho Man, Alex Po Leung Kuk No.1 W.H.Cheung College Perth AU

My most memorable experience is staying with my host family. It is such a great time to play, to cook, with them. Their living style is different from us in Hong Kong. I found it interesting. HO Wui Sum Buddihst Sin Tak Collage Perth AU		Entered the Science World and played war game. I could see a lot of different kinds of animals like dinosaur fossils and specimen. They had years of history and they were looked like the real one. The war game was very exciting because I needed to go everywhere to hide myself and shoot people. It's so different to hide myself and it made me felt so tired. Ma On Shan Tsung Tsin Secondary School WONG Wing Laam Canada

LAM King Wa ‘s father:

Going abroad for study tour is one of the important activities for summer vocation. My son was very happy to join the LST Young Ko Hsiao Lin Secondary School, Perth Study Tour 2012. The program was organized by Australian Education Association-International Student Exchange Centre.

During the three weeks in Perth Study Tour, he learnt a lot from it. English course, Didgeridoo lesson, Street performers, Museum and Kings park, such series activities gave students opportunity to practice their English, make some understanding of local custom and cultural.

Living independently in the host family, he learnt that local people have concept of protecting environment, water and energy. They are living in natural way and simply life-style. He was very impressed by their hospitality and the delicious meals.

During the days in Perth, my son also went around Perth city, University campus, seashore with his friends and took a lot of photos. It was every excited for him to be the winner of the PEC Facebook competition 2012.

The Study Tour really impressed him and encourages him in his further study. When back from Perth, he is showing us the photos and shares his first abroad study tour experience.

Thank you for the briefing sessions before the tour, they were very important and necessary for both parents and students. You have done well. We parents will support my son to take the study tour again during his middle school study.
