VOCATIONAL TRAINING EXHIBITION
SWD Joining Several Organisations In Week-Long Show
The Second Vocational Training Exhibition to be mounted by the
Hong Kong Council of Social Service will open next week at the Kei Heep
Secondary Modern School in Wong Tai Sin.
The exhibition will last from May 8 to May 14.
daily from 10.30 a.m. until 9.30 p.m.
It will open
"The idea is to give members of the general public a better
appreciation of the aims and objects of vocational training," says
Mr. Ray L. Sadler, chairman of the Exhibition.
"By showing the range of training opportunities available for
the young, we hope to help them decide on right careers.
"Our message is also addressed to prospective employers, because
correct training contributes to skilled work, and industry here needs
skilled workmen."
A special feature of this year's exhibition will be a fashion
show to be presented in the grounds of the Kei Heep Secondary Modern School,
with the spotlight falling on garments conceived and tailored by trainees
in design and tailoring classes in some of the participating centres.
Mr. Sadler says the first such exhibition in the Ocean Terminal
in 1969 attracted an audience of about 60,000, and he is sure this year's
show will be equally successful, if not more so."
