The pace of technological advancement has been just as relentless as EdCity’s commitment to integrating technology into education to enhance students’ learning experiences. To further promote the vision, EdCity is exhibiting at InnoCarnival 2024, organised by the Innovation and Technology Commission. From 26 October to 3 November at the Hong Kong Science Park, a booth will be set up for parents and students to experience the newly launched Parent App and Student App firsthand.

The booth will also feature a stage for students to try their hand at English public speaking.

A recent survey revealed that 24.4% of children and adolescents in Hong Kong had experienced at least one mental health issue. Recognising the importance of student holistic development, EdCity collaborated with the Hong Kong Association for Computer Education Association, the Committee on Home-School Co-operation, and the Joint Council of Parent-Teacher Associations of The Shatin District Ltd., to host a seminar titled ‘Understanding the Role of Mental Health in Children's Growth and Well-Being’ on 19 October at Shatin Pui Ying College. Dr Honourable LAM Ching-choi, SBS, JP, a member of the Executive Council and the Chairman of the Advisory Committee on Mental Health, spoke at the seminar about the importance of open communication between parents and children and the present situation of mental health among Hong Kong's youth.
