Today,finally,we get a chance to catch the glimpse of what was in store for the IVE Chai Wan Opening Day!This was the first Open Day conducted and many secondary school students were visiting the labs and it was also just like when we had a visit to the polytechnics here back home. We geared up on our last minute decorations and we were welcomed by actually,our teacher-in-charge first to give a brief explanation on what actually was Singapore and also most favourite part was to introduce few iconic places of interest of the homeland.After that,she discussed with us on how to make our presentation better understood by the visitors and we could actually,walked out and enjoyed ourselves,as what we did for the day. Firstly,we went to see on the Analytical Science stream section on their research and products on such as detection of heavy metals and also doing some absorbance activity. Subsequently,we proceed on to the fourth floor whereby the students of Food and Nutrition displayed some of their products such as their confectionaries like biscuits,cakes,ice-creams and two types of drinks such as pineapple and blackcurrant juice. In addition,what was the most interesting part was that when we went to the Centre for the Independent Language Learning(CILL) whereby we did played some games like the Putonghua,English,Japanese,Korean,Indonesian and French language and also the tongue twisters whereby to test on the individual's skills of correct English pronounciation of words related within the same initial letter. After that,we went back to the fourth level again,but this time round,to play a board game that was related to accounting,something that might be essential for our future life.Coincidentally,we chat and talked with the students who had went to our country for the Exchange Programme and we actually played the board game called "Business Challenge Jr" whereby the game was played by the means of liability and assets,which also consists of the income streams and also profits and losses.The interesting part was that the board game was created by our own students(Institue of Technical Education) from the Business course by the ITE College Central. After that,we did made some presentation to the different kinds of visitors and we were so tired for the first day.Anyway,there was still some leisure after the event and we have a good rest to continue on for the next day.

We wake up in the late morning and then have our breakfast in the hostel, as we already bought some microwave food and cup noodles to eat. After that we take MTR to tsim sha tsui and went to the nearest HK heritage discovery centre. We already know that the admission is free on this day. The year 2008 represents a milestone in the relationship between HK and France – 160 years of joint partnership. Born in 1848 when France decided to establish a consular representation in HK, the close relations between HK and France continue through the presence of around 10,000 French citizens in 2008 in HK, making it the largest French community in any Asian city. This exhibition looks at the role of French architecture as a vehicle for cultural interchange and its influence on the formation of this distinctive HK identity. The influence of French architectural style spread as HK developed during there key phases – Arrival (the second half of the 19th century), Expansion (the early 20th century to the Japanese occupation) and Renewal (post-war to present). After finish looking and reading this entire staff, we went to the nearest shopping mall and have our dinner there and back to hostel.
