Jules Verne Festival and exhibition of “Chronicles of an Extraordinary Travel”
On the occasion of the Jules Verne Festival, a fantastic celebration is being held to pay tribute to the father of science fiction, and we are immensely proud to be associated with it!
We are delighted to announce that our Terminale (Year 13) Arts Specialisation students are exhibiting their work as part of this festival. Their exhibition, titled "Chronicles of an Extraordinary Travel", is currently on display at the Hong Kong Central Library until 25th November 2025.
We would like to highlight that the opening ceremony on 22nd October was a great success, attended by the students and their families.
This fascinating project blends tradition and technology: each student created a drawing or painting that served as a starting point to guide an Artificial Intelligence, echoing the pioneering spirit of Jules Verne, who used the technologies of his time to explore new frontiers. We are very proud of their creativity and commitment.
This is also a festival for the whole family! Beyond our students' exhibition, this festival is a true invitation to a journey for all ages. There is something for everyone: a main exhibition to discover the life of Jules Verne, his stories, and his legacy (featuring emblematic objects from his works, loaned by the Petit Musée du Monde), as well as an improvisation show, film screenings, workshops, and talks. We strongly encourage you all to come along with your families and children of all ages, to support our talented students and enjoy this rich and varied programme.
A massive well done to Elsa, Emilie, Valentine, Lilou, Chloé, Ness, Juliette, Violette, Mofei, Elias, Adrien, Grégoire and Nathan!
