On March 18, all Secondary Two students participated in a field study at the Woodside Biodiversity Education Centre at Mount Parker. Through this visit, students gained a deeper understanding of Hong Kong's valuable natural resources, rich biodiversity, and the importance of conservation. They also visited the Quarry Bay Tree Walk, where they observed native plant species such as Polyspora axillaris and Machilus velutina, enhancing their knowledge of local flora.

In Geography, students applied their map-reading skills in an authentic setting by identifying contour lines, interpreting landforms, and estimating distances using map scales. Through examining the area's topography, vegetation, and land use, they strengthened their fieldwork and analytical abilities.

In History, students visited wartime stove sites and Japanese tunnels at Mount Parker, learning about the Battle of Hong Kong and its strategic significance. By observing these historical remains, students understood the military importance of geographical features such as high ground, appreciated the determination and sacrifices of those who defended their homeland, and recognised the importance of safeguarding national security and social stability.

Overall, the cross-curricular field study broadened students' understanding of biodiversity, strengthened their application of geographical and historical knowledge, and fostered a sense of responsibility in conserving nature and caring for their community.
