When my friends and I went to Amity Foundation’s “Walk for Living Water”, there were so many game booths led by secondary school students and organisations. I enjoyed playing the games and learning more about the importance of water usage.
We created our team name and were getting ready for the walk. We carried a bamboo pole with several bottles of water on our shoulders. It was a bit heavy for me, but I wanted to experience what it is like for people who lack clean water.

For my ninth birthday, I dreamed of celebrating with my parents at Hong Kong Disneyland, but they took me to Hoi Ha Wan instead. I was disappointed at first, but soon, the soft sand and colourful bay caught my eye.
I tried snorkelling, and I was amazed by the vibrant marine life. I forgot all about Disneyland as I explored the tranquillity of the underwater world surrounded by colourful fish and coral. This experience of natural beauty made me realise Hoi Ha Wan’s magic. Man-made parks cannot compare with the ocean, the trees, the rocks and the moments when I am immersed in nature!

What do red pandas eat?
Red pandas primarily eat bamboo, which makes up about 95 per cent of their diet. However, they are omnivorous and also consume fruits (like apples and berries), vegetables, eggs and small mammals or birds.
In the wild, they have adapted to a diet that is low in calories, so they spend a significant amount of time foraging and eating to meet their energy needs.
