We attach importance to promoting the maritime industry to youngsters and increase their awareness towards the career opportunities of Hong Kong’s maritime sector during their formative years. A funding support of $1.32 million under the Maritime and Aviation Training Fund is provided to the Hong Kong Maritime Museum for production of a curriculum-linked education pack “NAUTIC QUEST 魚吐” for secondary students to impart knowledge on the maritime and shipping industry. The education pack, “NAUTIC QUEST 魚吐”, is a multi-media, interactive, encyclopaedic platform for maritime learning. It comprises three major elements – |
| 1. | “The Yuto School (魚肚學校)” |
| School-based learning materials on maritime topics targeting F4 students in four HKDSE core subjects: Chinese Language, English Language, Mathematics, and Liberal Studies. It comprises teachers’ books with exercises for classroom use as well as student-oriented self-learning worksheets. |

| Content-rich dedicated website for maritime learning, featured with 360° videos and photos, electronic version of the school-based learning materials and an online game that enhances knowledge of the harbor and the maritime industry. |
| 3. | “The Yuto Aquarium (香江金魚缸)” |
