The Mentorship Programme jointly organised by the New Asia College and the NACAA had come to its 18th year. With the great support by the NACAA and the effort of numerous alumni enthusiastic in engaging students' participation, more than 230 alumni and students were enlisted to participate in the programme this year. Their years of graduation ranged from 1974 to 2013, which showed that alumni in different stages of life all shared the spirit of passing the torch to the next generation. The College sincerely thanks our trustees and alumni for their enthusiasm and support.

The Inauguration Ceremony of Mentorship Programme 2018-19 was successfully held at the Charles Leung Gymnasium in Staff Student Centre, Leung Hung Kee Building, New Asia College at 3:00 p.m. on 27 October 2018 (Saturday).

A "mentor briefing session" was conducted half an hour before the ceremony for the College to introduce the programme structure to the new mentors.

During the inauguration ceremony, Associate Head of College Professor Chu Ka-hou and President of NACAA cum Trustee Mr. Anthony Yiu welcomed and spoke to the participants. Apart from thanking mentors for their enthusiastic support, they expressed a wish that mentees would seize the opportunity to get in touch with various New Asia College people, and that mentors and mentees would become good friends and pass on the New Asia spirit.

In order to recognise the unfailing and selfless supports of our mentors, the College, represented by Professor Chu and Mr. Yiu, presented "long service awards", each of which comprised a certificate and a badge as souvenir, to mentors who had served more than 5, 10 and 15 years.

Would alumni interested in signing up as mentors please watch out for the recruitment mass email to be issued every July or August. Alumni are also welcomed to approach the College for enquiry anytime.
