Sik Sik Yuen Secondary School Flag-Raising Team to Visit Beijing; Student Calls Tiananmen Ceremony “Our High Point”
嗇色園中學升旗隊將訪京 有學生稱天安門觀看儀式「係我哋嘅高潮」
Chief Secretary for Administration Chan Kwok-ki earlier said patriotic education should begin at a young age, while the Education Bureau would promote schools’ participation through a “multiple pathways, mutual coordination” approach. The Hong Kong New Generation Cultural Association, Sik Sik Yuen and the Hong Kong Police Force collaborated on the “First Hong Kong Secondary School Student Flag-Raising Team Delegation to Beijing” under the “Heritage Programme”, and held a flag presentation ceremony yesterday. A student taking part in the Beijing visit said that visiting the Palace Museum allowed them to experience the mainland’s cultural and historical depth, adding: “Watching the national flag-raising ceremony at Tiananmen Square was the high point for us. Every flag-raising is a tribute to the country and a pursuit of history.”
政務司司長陳國基早前稱愛國主義教育要從小做起，教育局將循「多重進路、互相配合」推動學校參與。香港新一代文化協會、嗇色園及警務處「傳承計劃」合作，舉辦「首屆香港中學生升旗隊代表訪京團」，昨日舉行授旗儀式。有參與訪京的同學表示，在參觀故宮時可感受到內地文化及歷史底蘊，又指在「天安門廣場觀看升國旗儀式係我哋嘅高潮，每一次升旗係對國家嘅敬意同歷史嘅追索」。
