The Hong Kong Buddhist Association has organized "The Second Hong Kong Buddhist Association United Italian Scholarship (2023-2024 School Year)" program to encourage senior form students to learn Chinese traditional culture and values, and apply them in their daily lives. 

Participants were required to attend five themed lectures and study classical texts, including the "Sutra of the Past Vows of Earth Store Bodhisattva",  "The Sutra of Ten Good Karmas' Path",  "The Rules of Being a Student", "The Path of Enlightenment" and "Ancient Wisdom for Modern Use". 

A total of 656 students from 77 secondary schools in Hong Kong applied for the scholarship. After a uniform assessment and interview, 57 students were selected. Among them, three students from our school successfully received the scholarship. The awardees include:

5C  SO CHEUK YING

6D  WONG SIN YING

Each of them received a scholarship of HKD 50,000 to continue their studies at universities and higher education institutions in Hong Kong or mainland China.
