Love @ Po Leung Kuk

(Chinese Only)

Every Saturday morning, Lawyer Wong takes the time to visit the children, playing and interacting with them, and even preparing snacks for them. “I’ve always felt very fortunate in my studies, work, and family, so I want to give back to society and bring happiness and warmth to the children!”   Lawyer Wong's connection with the children at Po Leung Kuk began in 2019. Initially, she learned about volunteer activities involving visits and interactions with children through a member newsletter from the Hong Kong Law Society. During that event, staff from Po Leung Kuk informed her about the facilities, programs, and sponsorship details. Lawyer Wong found the program meaningful and decided to become a sponsor, hoping to improve the children’s living environment and provide them with opportunities to participate in various extracurricular activities.   After completing training for sponsors, she officially began visiting the sponsored children. Although the COVID-19 pandemic caused multiple delays in visitations, it did not deter her compassionate spirit. She expressed that she enjoys every visit, fully engaging with the children, saying, “Whatever the children want to play, I play along with them, even if it’s in the garden.” She also keeps track of each child’s interests, personalities, and memories to make future visits more familiar and enjoyable.   “I remember on my first visit to one child, he asked if he could hug me.” Unfortunately, due to visitation rules prohibiting close contact, Lawyer Wong couldn’t give him a hug. However, that experience deeply moved her, highlighting the children's need for love and care. With a heart full of compassion, Lawyer Wong hopes to reach out to and visit even more children, bringing them joy. Thus, she decided to “expand her family” by increasing her sponsorship from 5 to a total of 12 children. “I hope that in the brief hour of our visit, the children can have fun and find a different experience in their daily lives at the facility; I also want them to feel that there are many people in society who care about and love them.”

DSE放榜是人生重要的里程碑，對於保良局姚連生中學的梁家軒同學來說，放榜更是他的人生轉捩點。出生於清貧家庭的他自小欠缺資源補習，但在學校栽培下，他勤奮好學，更多次榮獲學科獎項或全級首名，並且積極參與不同課外活動及社區服務，最終成功入讀中文大學護理系。   另一名來自姚連生中學的楊松林同學成績亦非常卓越，他順利入讀浸會大學社會科學學系。在學期間，楊同學積極抓緊不同機會，擔任學生會會長，培養出領袖才能，還參與管弦樂團等課外活動，力求裝備自己，以便應付將來的挑戰！   踏入大學是人生的新章節，願同學們繼續自強不息，向著理想進發！
