The Health and Physical Education (HPE) department successfully hosted the 2nd Physical Education (PE) Assembly on 20 January, 2025, which served as a pivotal platform for over 180 students from the Bachelor of Education (Honours) (Physical Education) and Postgraduate Diploma in Education (Primary and Secondary) programmes.

Recently, Dr. LEUNG Ka Man, Carman, an Associate Professor of the Department of Health and Physical Education at our university, was invited to introduce light volleyball on the J Sport program on TVB. Dr. Leung explained that, compared to traditional volleyball, light volleyball features a larger and lighter ball with simpler rules, making it easier for participants to get started. Additionally, as a non-contact sport, light volleyball significantly reduces the risk of injury, making it particularly suitable for older adults.
