SPCC X HKU X Mark Hayes: #WhileIBreatheIHope Video

Following the #StayHome&MakeMusic video which generated much positivity and heartwarming sentiments in our community and beyond, the College is proud to present another blockbuster video – #WhileIBreatheIHope, which hopes to spread love further and farther through music. Both of these videos have now kickstarted the LoveHKLoveU campaign presented by the University of Hong Kong (HKU).

Curated by the College’s Music Director, this latest video features renowned American composer, Mr. Mark Hayes, along with student representatives from the Treble and Senior Mixed Voice Choirs as well as alumni, staff and Council members of the College and Primary School. The College wishes to express its gratitude to all these St. Paulians for their contributions to this meaningful cause.

This video is dedicated to all healthcare workers who worked selflessly and tirelessly to keep us safe during this pandemic.

SPCC

Welcome to the SPCC Mentor Programme, where participating Form 5 students are paired with SPCC alumni to develop one-on-one "counselor and friend" relationships.

Through individual mentoring as well as tailored group activities, we hope to help students broaden their perspectives, develop their potential and achieve their academic and career aspirations as they prepare for life beyond SPCC.

Now in its 19th year, the Programme has an annual intake of over 160 new Form 5 students as mentees and has built up a resource pool of over a similar number of alumni mentors.

 

Our Mentors - a Rich Pool of Resource

Our pool of mentors range from business executives to young entrepreneurs, from seasoned professionals to established academics, as well as civil servants in a variety of fields. We are also targeting younger alumni at earlier stages of their careers to join the pool.

An approximate percentage breakdown of our mentors by background / sector is as follows:
