Student Symposium

The student symposium is co-organised with our student members as a finale to celebrate the outcomes of the Jockey Club “Gifted in Bloom – Harmony in Heart & Mind” Programme. The event also aims to encourage gifted students to appreciate their giftedness by telling their self-discovery stories, empower them to express their thoughts and feelings from the journey of learning and development and enhance the compassion of parents, teachers and other student peers for the gifted students.

Student Symposium: The Beautiful Hearts and Minds of Gifted Students was successful held in Xiqu Centre, West Kowloon Cultural District, and ZOOM on 18 July 2021 (Sunday). More than 20 student presenters shared their thoughts and experiences on stage, more than 60 students presented there poster on the poster exhibition, and three Gifted guests were invited to shared an insight on talent development. Feel free to explore the different sessions below to learn more about the student symposium.
