LANTAU RUNNERS ON THE 2 PEAKS’ PODIUM
In Action Asia’s CBRE Lantau 2 Peaks on October 2, competitors chose to run either the 23km (two peaks) or 15km (half peak) course, solo or in mixed teams of four.
The 23km course saw runners climb some of the biggest peaks in Hong Kong, with a total elevation gain of almost 1,800m.
A special shout out goes to Lantau residents Zein Williams, who grabbed second overall in the women’s 23km, and Salomon Wettstein and Jeremy Ritcey, who placed third and fourth overall in the men’s 23km.

BOX OF HOPE DELIVERIES AT SILVERMINE BAY SCHOOL
Students at Silvermine Bay School took part in the annual Box of Hope campaign last month, packing shoeboxes of gifts and essentials which will be sent to children in need in Hong Kong and across Asia.
While the upper primary students made their boxes in class, the rest of the school made their boxes at home ready for collection on November 8.
