ECH Club has just organised a one day workshop as we promoted, having with us, Father Adam and Sister Ching. Both of them have at least 30 years of experience and have been working together the past 25years. They have published several books together and our students had an eye-opener today as they went through the workshop. Students have expressed that they did learn somethings that they have not known before and the Exco is very happy that this event was a success. Big thanks to Father Adam, Sister Ching, all the exco members who have worked very hard to make today's event possible and also Jonathan for introducing Father and Sister to us.
