The Joy of Wood Engraving is an exhibition of works from secondary school students of Pui Ching Middle School.  It was hosted by Pui Ching Middle School and sponsored by the Education and Youth Affairs Bureau.  The opening ceremony was held at noon today at the Youth Art House.

All works of display in the current exhibition were created by students of the Pui Ching Wood Engraving Club and expressed the creators’ perceptions of changes in the environment, environmental conservation, and other issues of personal interest to the young artists. 

Pui Ching has always been an ardent advocate of all-round education.  It aims to promote student development in morals, intellect, physical education, interpersonal communication, aesthetics and religious education through different extra-curricular activities.  Student engagement in the creative process of wood engraving and the preparation for the exhibition helped to boost their confidence and motivated them to continue with their creative work.
