University Partnership Initiatives - The Hong Kong Polytechnic University​

It takes a world to end violence against children. Our Global Citizenship Programme is designed to equip students with knowledge about world poverty and social justice issues. We inspire them to take actions to brighten the future of vulnerable children!



Recycling Rewards Programme​

The Recycling Rewards Programme encourages students to learn about and participate in recycling. Student ambassadors regularly count the paper and plastic bottles collected by each class and liaise weekly with the local NGO, Doko Recyclers. Doko Recyclers reimburses the school in cash based on the volume of recyclables, and the fund is then used to purchase stationery. The top three classes with the highest monthly recycling volumes receive stationery as a reward.​

School Garden Project​

Transforming unused campus spaces, the School Garden Project creates a greener and more engaging learning environment. Instead of using traditional bricks, by using eco-bricks created by other groups, the project highlights innovative and sustainable practices. A structured system ensures students take turns managing tasks like fertilising and watering, fostering a sense of responsibility and active involvement. Through the hands-on challenges of gardening, students develop a deeper appreciation for the environment and learn the importance of its preservation.​

Upcycling Workshop​

Through workshops on creating plastic bottle kendamas and eco-bricks, teachers and students learn the concept of upcycling and the harmful impact of single-use plastics on the planet. These sessions aim to reduce waste and pollution while encouraging students to unleash their creativity by mastering crafting techniques.​

Sustainable Hygiene with Fruit Peel Products

Leftover fruit peels are transformed into perfumes, hand sanitisers, and cleaning agents, reducing food waste while enhancing campus hygiene. Interactive workshops teach teachers and parents how to create these products, empowering them to incorporate sustainable practices into their daily lives. This initiative aims to foster better hygiene habits across the entire school community.

Reflections from Past Students:​

Luke, Germany

Take time to appreciate the little things, because sometimes having less can bring more happiness. 

Salisha, Nepal

Nepal may not be a highly developed country, and it faces many difficulties and challenges. I will work very hard for my country, and joining this project is one of my first steps. 

Felix, Mainland China

I did not expect to make so many kind and friendly friends in Nepal. I am also grateful for my groupmates who demonstrated that being a leader is not just about leadership. They are modest and humble – which is just as important. 

Mosses, Hong Kong

Co-creation and intercultural exchange are the core values of the EAGLE Programme, and it helped me grow a lot throughout the experience.
