Literary Inspiration

Year 9 intrepid explorers embarked on a voyage of Gothic discovery across the abandoned Hakka villages dotted close to our school.

The inspiration for the trip came from a ‘Gothic Literature’ studies in English where they have been describing abandoned locations.

The students will use the villages they saw as a prompt for their writing assessment.

The trip provided an authentic look at the historical connections of this part of Hong Kong, leading to great steps forward in the students’ thinking, learning and understanding.

The students showed amazing perseverance and determination to all successfully complete a challenging 10km hike and it was wonderful to see them smiling, bonding and facing challenges together.
