何鴻燊東亞書院學生會大合照
On 22nd and 23rd September, the House Association (HA) of Stanley Ho East Asia College (SHEAC) organised an orientation camp for their members in Zhuhai. Although it was postponed due to the Typhoon Mangkhut, students’ expectation towards it never ceased.
In the morning, participants gathered at Gongbei and arrived at the destination by taking a reserved coach. Upon arrival and settling down, they assembled at the meadow nearby. A series of contests were held for the various working groups to compete with each other. Teamwork and collaboration were needed in every game. Everyone in each working group was conscientious and united as one to fight for the championship. Although there would be winners and losers, friendships among the students have strengthened rather than shrunk.
Students played in teams to complete a series of challenges.

The most memorable activity must be the water battles. None of them was able to escape from being drenched by the water. At night, the participants played “Monopoly”, the winner of which became the champion of the whole series of competitions. Finally, it came to the last activity, i.e. feedback and sharing on the orientation camp. The House Association members expressed their feelings towards the Ocamp and what they learnt from it. At last, they celebrated the birthday of the HA President, creating a very warm-hearted atmosphere.
House Association members were discussing the strategies for the team challenge game.

The Ocamp provided a valuable opportunity for members of different working groups make friends with each other, and to deepen the rapport among those of the same working groups. Hence, the members were expected to collaborate more effectively on future activities.

天公造美，書院學生會迎新營在晴朗的天空下順利完成。
一次難忘的院生會迎新營
2018年9月22至23日（週末），何鴻燊東亞書院學生會於珠海舉行 2018-2019 屆書院學生會迎新營。雖然迎新營受颱風「山竹」影響延期，但院生會成員對它的期待絲毫沒有減少。
當天早上院生會一行四十人在拱北會合，一起乘坐預定的巴士到達目的地。到達目的地後，同學們將行李放好，再以部門分隊形式在住宿地方附近集合，進行遊戲比賽。每一個遊戲項目都很需要大家組員的互相配合和團結合作。比賽進行期間，各部門的成員都很認真，希望為部門取得勝利。雖然比賽有輸有贏，但大家都是友誼第一，比賽第二。
Water battles played among members
成員之間進行水戰
最讓人深刻的環節一定非潑水莫屬，大家都無一幸免成了「落湯雞」。到了晚上，就是進行「大富翁」的時間了，在「大富翁」中勝出的部門就是這次活動的最後贏家。壓軸的當然是這次活動的回顧總結，學生會成員們都表達了自己對迎新營的感想，或是説出自己在活動上的得益，最後還為院生會主席慶祝生日，場面十分溫馨。
這次迎新營讓各部門的成員互相認識，更令成員之間關係變得密切，使大家在日後的書院學生會活動中，能有效地合作。
