My book, The Girl with the Red Hair, is based on the true story of Hannie Schaft, the most famous of those brave women. To the Dutch, Hannie was an icon of resistance during World War Ⅱ, and around the country there are schools and streets named after her.

At the start of the war, Hannie was a law student at the University of Amsterdam, but her studies were disrupted by the German occupation of the Netherlands. On May 14^th, 1940, a German bombing raid almost destroyed Rotterdam, forcing thousands to flee the burning city. As the Nazis began targeting Jews, Hannie decided to act. Whether it was sheltering Jews or transporting top-secret information in her saddlebags, setting fire to military facilities or shooting Nazi officers, the breathtaking courage she demonstrated was unprecedented. Hannie was prepared to take on any assignment in her quest for justice.

Hannie's story ends tragically. It was Hannie's great misfortune to be arrested only weeks before the end of the war. Though this black-haired girl refused to talk under questioning, her red hair roots gave her identity away. One cold spring morning, Hannie was taken from her cell and marched to a point, where one of the Nazi soldiers took aim. But his first shot only grazed her ear. She said, "Idiot! I shoot better than you." The second bullet took her life.

It has been a humbling experience writing this book about Hannie Schaft. Although my book is a work of fiction, I hope I've done justice to this incredible and inspiring woman. Come and discover more about my new novel, the second in The Dutch Girl series, called The Girl with the Red Hair.

How often do you walk around the campus instead of getting straight onto the shuttle bus? The beauties of our campus deserve to be better explored and can best be explored on foot. Walking is also a greener and healthier alternative to using vehicles. To encourage more students and staff members to walk around the campus, our school has launched a new "Walk for Green" initiative.

Programme

Setting out from the MTR Station, "Walk for Green" recommends various walking routes on campus, one of which covers the YIA Building, LSK Building and LWS Building. Card readers for different walking routes have been installed (安装) to record the number of points completed by "Walk for Green" participants. Participants who collect 60 points within 30 days will be awarded the title "Green Walker".

Participation

To participate, students and staff members would choose a marked route and tap their school cards at the card readers installed at both the start and end points (and also at an intermediate card reader). Name, student/staff ID, department/unit, date, time, and card readers tapped will be recorded.

Walking Journey Points

Important Notes:

1. Walkers must complete one trip (either upwards or downwards) within one hour to score points.

2. A maximum of six points will be awarded each day.

Every time you take a walk on campus, you are helping to preserve our environment and also keeping yourself healthy. Let's start from today!
