The Education Bureau (EDB) and schools organised a variety of student activities today in support of National Security Education Day.
Secretary for Education Kevin Yeung and Under Secretary for Education Choi Yuk-lin attended the morning assemblies of SKH St James’ Primary School and King’s College to view the raising of the national flag and sing the national anthem with students.
Mr Yeung noted that today is the country’s sixth National Security Education Day and the first of its kind since the implementation of the National Security Law, making it particularly meaningful.
“As a place for education, schools should enable students to understand that while having staunch support from the country, we, as nationals, also have the responsibility to safeguard national security with a view to contributing to the prosperity, stability and continuous development of the country and Hong Kong society.”
