Dock School Programme
Dock School was introduced in 1992 with the aim of providing support and assistance to the schools in the port’s vicinity, especially those with financial challenges. In addition to offering direct financial support and purchase of school facilities, our local teams also initiate a wide range of educational activities to foster students’ potential and provide learning experiences beyond the classroom. These activities include terminal visits, training programmes, work placements, scholarships and environmental related activities. Hongkong International Terminals Limited (HIT) actively participates in the programme and has been supporting our Dock School, the Hong Kong Institute of Vocational Education (IVE), Tsing Yi, since 2009. Every year, HIT and IVE jointly organise a General and Logistics Knowledge Contest and arrange terminal visit for students to enhance their understanding of the supply chain and logistics industry. We also extend support to final year students in logistics-related disciplines, enabling them to participate in the Shipping Project Competition. Starting from 2024, Youth College joins us as HIT Dock School. We offer scholarship to students who demonstrate outstanding academic performance in engineering disciplines. At the same time, through apprenticeship training programmes and career talks, they will be able to gain practical experience and develop a better understanding of their future career paths.
Kwai Tsing District Youth Community Service Competition
HIT has been sponsoring this competition since 1998. Secondary school students in the Kwai Tsing district form teams to plan community service activities. They present their proposal to a panel of judges and receive a limited budget to carry out their idea. The teams are judged based on their ideas, presentation methods and result of their project.
