The Hong Kong Police Band, in partnership with Police Community Relations Office (PCRO) of Border District, visited Tun Yu School under the “Music Touch” programme on May 7.


Apart from performing an array of music for around 300 students and teachers, the band members introduced the history of the band and their daily work to the audience. They also demonstrated different musical instruments and organised interactive activities for the students.


Given the pandemic situation, the school implemented social distancing measures for the event. While some students and teachers enjoyed the performance in the outdoor area of the campus, the remaining students watched a live broadcast in their classrooms. To raise the students’ sense of national identity, the school especially invited the band to kick off the performance with the National Anthem.


The Police Band launched the “Music Touch” programme in 2016 to enhance students’ interest in learning music through school visits and interactive music performances. Since the inception of the programme, the band has partnered with PCROs from different districts to arrange visits to over 60 primary, secondary and special schools and reached out to more than 20 000 students and teachers. Following a pause of the programme due to the pandemic, the Police Band resumed the programme to continue to nurture positive values in youngsters and deepen their understanding of different types of music.
