The Department of English has been running the “Glocality” and Cultural Literacy: HSMC English Enhancement Project since 2014. Funded by the Quality Enhancement Support Scheme (QESS) from the Education Bureau and Tin Ka Ping Foundation, HSMC has been organising an array of activities to promote cultural literacy and the construct of “glocality” among our students.
The “Glocal” Cultural Fortnight, one of the key events, was held during 20 September to 30 September 2016. The two weeks consisted of highlights which reflected the hard work of students and staff over the past few months. On 22 September 2016, there was a Speech Festival on “Glocal” Culture where five groups competed for the grand prize of a cultural exchange trip in January 2017. On 29 September 2016, there was a Drama Competition on “Glocal” Culture. To complement these highlights, daily activities were organised including English Language Lunches on different cultural themes and cultural workshops.
