Thanks to the US Consulate, over 200 students from 4 WeCan schools had a chance to join the sharing session by the US Olympic medalist swimmer Lia Neal on her journey to becoming a professional swimmer  on 22 November 2017 at Pui Ying Secondary School.  Consul General Kurt Tong was also present to encourage students to pursue their dreams.

Winning two Olympic medals at a young age, Lia’s own experience testifies that no dream is too big!  Students were all inspired by Lia’s story.  After the sharing, 20 students from four WeCan schools also had the privilege to interact with Lia in water and competing with the Olympic medalist!

The WeCan schools participated in the event include Fung Kai No.1 Secondary School, Hong Kong Sea School, LST Yu Kan Hing Secondary School, as well as the hosting school, Pui Ying Secondary School!
