‘Best Future Museum Curators’ Award
Eight of our F.5 Geography and Science students participated in a one-year community project entitled the ‘ECF Mobilizing Community Climate Action by Future Museum Curators’ co-organized by the Environmental Campaign Committee and the Jockey Club Museum of Climate Change.
The students set up an online exhibition named ‘MegaHeat’ (https://www.mocc.cuhk.edu.hk/zh-tw/ecffmc-school-virtual-gallery ).
