Principal Bernard V. Lim was invited as a guest speaker for Conference on “Green Deck” organized by The Hong Kong Polytechnic University in December 2015.

The Hong Kong Polytechnic University has recently proposed to build a landscaped "Green Deck" over the Toll Plaza of the Cross-Harbour Tunnel.  The "Green Deck" not only will greatly improve the air quality in the area with extensive plantation, it will also provide a lot of leisure and recreational spaces to the public.  The landscaped deck will also serve as a hub that connects the University campus, East Tsim Sha Tsui, Whampoa and the Promenade by the Harbour which will greatly enhance the pedestrian accessibility between these areas.
