INAUGURATION OF LONG-TERM GUIDANCE SCHEME FOR SCHOOL LEAVERS
A long-term guidance schene to provide advice and assistance to
school leavers will be inaugurated on Sunday (December 30).
The project, to be known as "The Youth Guidance Scheme on Employment
and Further Studies," is a joint effort between the Social Welfare Department's
Tai Hang Tung Community Centre and the West Kowloon Youth Guidance Council,
Also participating will be college students or graduates who will
be assisting in planning and organisation work.
Miss Lilian Wong. Warden ? the Tai Hang Tung Community Centre
and Co-ordinator of the project, said the aim of the scheme is to provide
students leaving school with advice and assistance on employment matters
or further studies.
"By doing this we hope the students will be better prepared to face
the outside world with confidence to find the right place for themselves
in society," she said.
A series of programmes which will include lectures, seminars and
group discussions will start next month lasting into the middle of the
new year.
We intend to invite people from different fields to take part in
these programmes so that the participants in the scheme will be able to
get as much information as possible on what opportunities are open to them
either in employment or in pursuing further studies," Miss Wong said.
School leavers will be discussing these possibilities in small
group settings in which they will also be able to share the experiences of
young adult volunteers from the Community Centre who themselves at one
time faced the same problems of deciding their future.
