Fung Wing Education Launched ‘SimLife Camp’ for Secondary School Interview Preparation and Secondary Student Career Planning Education, Empowering Students to Understand Themselves and Enhance Interview Performance

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – January 18, 2024 – Fung Wing Education helps various organizations with career planning training. Their previous student training and career planning activities have received support from teachers, parents and students. Fung Wing Education understands the importance parents place on their children’s school choice and transition to secondary education, as it is a crucial step for every student.

In December 2023, Fung Wing Education organized the groundbreaking “SimLife Camp” for primary six students and their parents at Yuen Long Catholic Secondary School. This camp combined the high school interview with real-world career exploration, allowing students to hone their interview skills in realistic scenarios. It aimed to help students identify their strengths and weaknesses and improve their performance and confidence in future high school admissions interviews. Additionally, the camp aimed to instill in students the importance of planning for their future.

Nearly 200 sixth-grade elementary school students participated in the “Simulated Life Camp,” which lasted five hours and simulated various job interviews, part-time work experiences and continuing education opportunities. The camp included several simulated interview positions, allowing students to learn while practicing their interview skills and gain knowledge about career planning. Through advice on academic choices, financial management, interpersonal skills, happiness, fulfillment and the value of money and relationships, the camp aimed to help students develop positive character traits, positive values ​​and an understanding of the value of money. Throughout camp, students encountered challenges, setbacks, opportunities, and temptations similar to those in the real world. These experiences inspired them to think about their life goals and understand the importance of planning for their personal development.

Most students actively participated in the camp and were able to earn academic credit through on-site interviews in the interview class. The Education Bureau would divide schools from Group 1 to Group 3 based on different academic credit values. After completing the academic path upgrade, students can experience various professional activities such as becoming a KOL, singer, delivery boy, athlete, and simulate the process of working and earning money. During the game, unexpected disasters such as epidemics, stock market crashes, housing crises, and natural or man-made disasters would occur. Students should continue their studies through interviews to improve their social status and improve their self-esteem. The outcome of their work would depend on the choices they make at different stages.

Before the end of the event, the organizers invited parents and students to summarize the activities together. Through the sharing of students’ learning and experiences during the event, parents were also able to understand the benefits brought to their children, thereby strengthening the parent-child relationship. Finally, students shared their ideas and experiential reflections about their emotional journey throughout the game in small groups. They also discovered their strengths and weaknesses through secondary school interview feedback, which helped them build their confidence and prepare for upcoming interviews.
