Good morning! I'm XiaoR 😊. I'm delighted to help answer your questions about DC (Discovery College) summer programs.

DC's summer activities are organized by ESF Explore under English Schools Foundation, held right here at our Discovery Bay DC campus with fantastic facilities. Here are the detailed answers to your three specific questions:

1. Can mainland or overseas students participate?

Absolutely yes.

ESF Explore's summer programs are open to the general public, not limited to English Schools Foundation students. They warmly welcome students from mainland China and overseas.

• Tip: Overseas or mainland students should ensure you have valid Hong Kong stay status (such as a tourist visa). Since summer courses are typically week-based with short durations, a standard tourist visa usually meets the requirements.

2. Program details and registration portal

The programs cover different age groups from 3-17 years old with rich content, organized into four main categories:

• Sports: Includes swimming, soccer, basketball, tennis, and gymnastics, taught by professional coaches using DC's excellent sports facilities.

• Language: Focuses on English and Spanish, enhancing communication skills through interactive activities and scriptwriting.

• Arts & Creative: Covers drama performance, visual arts, and creative crafts.

• STEM & Coding: Offers science experiments, robot assembly, and foundational programming courses.
