6 of our Form 4 students, with guidance from 2 Mathematics teachers, participated in the “Mathematical Modelling Competition for Secondary School Students” organised by the Education Bureau and Department of Mathematics, The Chinese University of Hong Kong.

Mathematical modelling involves the process of approaching real-world issues via a mathematical framework, making representation, analysis and prediction. In the competition, both our students and teachers first attended workshops at CUHK, followed by their own demonstration of knowledge in this domain to solve a real-life problem.

Our students were well inspired by this eye-opening early exposure to tertiary education and have gained insights on how to make use of mathematical modelling to explore the future trend of our local tourism industry.

Behind the Scenes at TVB City

The day began with a visit to TVB City, where students were warmly received by renowned news anchor Mr. Trevor Lee Cheuk Him. Mr. Lee led an engaging tour of the newsroom, introducing the broadcasting facilities including studios used for weather forecasts and traffic updates.

This hands-on experience provided a fascinating look at the tools that bring news stories to life. Mr. Lee also demonstrated how traffic reports are produced and explained the teamwork required across multiple departments to ensure smooth broadcast operations.

In addition to showcasing the technical side of news production, Mr. Lee shared valuable insights from his career. He spoke about the increasing role of artificial intelligence in media, noting that while AI enhances efficiency, the “human touch”—creativity, critical thinking, and editorial judgment—remains essential in journalism.

Students also had a chance to explore TVB’s drama sets, including those designed to replicate ancient streetscapes, offering a rare behind-the-scenes look at television drama production.
