600 students for English-speaking camp
Six hundred Secondary One students will have undergone a five-day English immersion experience at the Chinese University of Hong Kong when the English- speaking Summer Camps close tomorrow (Friday).
The camps are the first of a three-year language fund project to improve English proficiency among local students.
They are jointly organised by the English Section of the Education Department's Advisory Inspectorate and the Department of English of the Chinese University of Hong Kong.
The Camps provide a relaxed atmosphere for students to communicate with each other and organise activities, including mini-drama and country-park visits, in English.
The organisers are hoping to run a similar camp next year.
