On 19th April 2024, the Kuen Cheng High School Chinese-English Debate Society threw a welcoming party in front of the hall for new members, including the transferring members that switched from other clubs or society. Amidst the palpable excitement and eager anticipation of the students, the welcoming party commenced promptly at 3:15 p.m.. The president and vice president of the society both gave a short speech to welcome the arrival of the new members.
A Short Speech by The Society’s President
There were five mini games in total, which were ‘Set The Trap’, ‘Showcase Your Talent’, ‘Sound Across a Thousand Miles’, ‘United in Purpose’ and ‘Keen Insight’. In the game ‘Set The Trap,’ participants must all place their legs inside the allotted ropes, while in the game ‘Showcase Your Talent,’ participants must strike a posture based on a given image. And then, in the game ‘Sound Across a Thousand Miles,’ players must tell the person playing next to them what they heard.
In the following game ‘United in Purpose’, players from each team must cooperate in pairs, stand facing one another, and see to it that an empty bottle carried on each other’s arms is delivered to the target spot without ever hitting the ground. Last but not least, players in the game ‘Keen Insight’ must identify the differences between two distinct papers. Throughout the games, all members appear to be enjoying themselves and giving their all.
Members Giving Their All In The Game
The awards ceremony took place after the games had concluded. The members of the group with the highest score each received a pencil case as a prize, whilst the group with the lowest score had to be punished, which meant performing a dance. After the rewards were distributed, the members gathered together and took a group photo.

Later, the members formed an orderly queue in the canteen to get their food – McDonald’s lunches. While the members were enjoying their food, the losing group also took the opportunity to perform a simple dance in the middle of the canteen, which made everyone laugh. The welcome party also came to a successful end in this joyful atmosphere.
