The PTA is inviting parents and students to join our Spring Outing on the 20th of February 2016.  The aim of the event is to foster a closer relationship among the school staff, parents, and students.  It is not only an opportunity for us to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life but also a chance to meet other families who are part of our LaSallian community as well.  All parents and students are welcome and the Brothers and teachers will also be invited. 

The Spring Outing will be a day trip as follows:

Date:    20th February 2016 (Saturday)
Time:   9:00am at La Salle College (Coach from La Salle College to Po Sang Yuen Bee Garden)

5:00pm dismiss at La Salle College

Charge: PTA members: $150 per person (non-members: $200 per person) including a Chinese pigeon meal , coach fee, and tour guide (in Cantonese)

Itinerary:

We will arrive at Po Sang Yuen Bee Garden at around 10:00am where specialists will explain the process of housing bees and generating honey.  After the visit participants will enjoy lunch at Lung Wah Hotel for the best-known deep-fried pigeons.  After lunch participants will visit the mysterious Sha Tau Kok area which was listed as a restricted area for years, and explore the traditional rural villages there.  Then participants will visit Luk Keng Nam Chung Ecozone.  Luk Keng is well-known for its natural scenery and wildlife which is a contrast to Hong Kong's modern culture.  Participants will enjoy the spectacular scenery of the mangroves and wetlands and watch rare birds in Luk Keng.  They will also trek in the breathtakingly beautiful Nam Chung area.

To facilitate planning we urge you to enroll as early as possible.  Please enroll via eClass and submit a crossed cheque payable to “LSCPTA” to the PTA’s Drop Box at the School Office on or before the 2^nd of February 2016 (Tuesday).  

For enquiries please feel free to contact Mr. CHAN Tong at chan.t@lasalle.edu.hk .  Please write student’s name, parent’s contact number, and ‘PTA Outing’ on the back of your cheque.  Further details such as the contingency arrangements regarding adverse weather and updated information about the tour will be posted on the PTA web site.

Thank you for your support.  We are looking forward to seeing you on Saturday, 20^th of February 2016.

Wishing you a prosperous Chinese New Year.
