It was our pleasure to welcome F3 students from Rhenish Church Pang Hok Ko Memorial College on a Wan Chai Community Tour, where they visited the Sikh Temple and explored more about Hong Kong’s rich multicultural community. The tour gave students a valuable chance to step out of the classroom and experience a culture that may have been new to many of them.
Guided by our Cultural Ambassadors, the students learned about the history, beliefs, and traditions of Sikh culture. Through conversation and sharing, they discovered the importance of values such as equality, service, and acceptance. What made the experience especially meaningful was the way these ideas came to life through direct engagement, helping students see how culture is not just something to study, but something to experience and appreciate.
“Ethnic minorities are human too, we should not think they are different.” Student
One of the highlights of the tour was the chance to experience authentic Indian vegetarian food together in the community kitchen. Students found it amazing sitting on the floor to eat while also learning about the spirit of generosity and selfless service that makes Langar such a meaningful practice.
“The most memorable part was eating Indian Cuisine, because it was my first time trying Indian cuisine. The way they eat is also completely different from what we're used to.”
“We should care more and embrace other cultures and actively learn about diverse cultures.”
Through this enriching cultural experience, students not only expanded their knowledge of Sikh culture but also developed a deeper appreciation for diversity, inclusion, and mutual respect. The tour served as a reminder that meaningful intercultural experiences can help build empathy and stronger connections across communities.
