Pui Ching students participated in the 2023 World GreenMech Contest and came through with flying colors.

Three of our Secondary 1 students formed a team to participate in the World GreenMech Contest held in Tainan this year on August 3.  The contest gave our students an opportunity to apply knowledge they have learned in STEAM subjects (science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics).  The student team excelled among the 128 contesting teams and won the Overseas Educational Contribution Award. 

Our award winners were Secondary 1F student Fong Chon Wai and Secondary 1D students Lei Hin Wang and Wong Hio Kei.  Their instructors were Mr. Ho Seng Kuan and Mr. Tin Peng.

Under the guidance of their instructor Mr. Lei Wai Sin, Senior 3 student Sio Kei Chon and Senior 2 student Cheng U Hin participated in the 33rd Annual International Conference of the Society for Chaos Theory in Psychology and the Life Sciences, which was held from August 2 to 4 at the Fields Institute of the University of Toronto. The conference featured workshops, lectures from special guests, and presentations from scholars and PhD and master’s students from countries such as the United States, Canada, France, the United Kingdom, and Turkey. Our students were the only high school team participating in the academic conference.

Mr. Lei and our students submitted a paper titled "Predator extinction arose from chaos of the prey: The chaotic behavior of a homomorphic two-dimensional logistic map in the form of Lotka-Volterra equations". They presented the paper during the group discussion on the morning of the third day of the conference.

Participation in the academic conference gave the students an opportunity to present their research results and engage with experts and scholars from top research institutions. It also allowed them to expand their horizons and discover future learning directions. Both teachers and students benefited greatly from the experience.
