Visits for 2024 interns

Date: Thursday 01 Aug 2024

Over the past two weeks, the Hong Kong Sheng Kung Hui Archives has organized a series of enriching visits to various archival and historical organizations for our student interns. We are incredibly grateful for the warm hospitality shown by St. Paul's Co-educational College, where two students had the unique opportunity to explore their school history gallery, music room, and library, gaining a deeper insight into the school's historical narrative.

Additionally, the Archives arranged a visit to the Chinese University of Hong Kong for two summer interns and another winter intern. It was an honor for them to visit the CUHK History Gallery and learn about the treasures housed within the Special Collections Unit of the CUHK Library. They not only observed these valuable items but also gained an understanding of the workflow involved in their preservation. Finally, our staff and interns were privileged to explore the Theology Building of the Divinity School of Chung Chi College, CUHK, where they delved into its rich collection of books. These visits have provided our students with invaluable learning experiences.

We extend our heartfelt thanks to all the partnering institutions for supporting these memorable experiences for our interns!
