  • A Tribute and Vote of Thanks to Our Beloved Jesuits and Teachers
    A Tribute and Vote of Thanks to our Beloved Jesuits and Teachers From the classes of Form 5 (1970) and the classes of Form 6 (1971) December 19, 2015 (updated March 31, 2016) initiated and edited by Simon Luk What an incredible 5 decades! Our deepest gratitude to our Jesuits and teachers who have devoted their energies to helping us to make intellectual discoveries, to sharpen our mental tools and to discover ourselves. We remember our Jesuits because they have influenced what we do with our life, filled with Christian love and values. As some of us cannot attend our Hong Kong reunion in 2015, we have asked our classmates to prepare short notes about themselves to thank our teachers who have enlightened us and to reconnect us in the future. Thanks to everyone who has contributed to this project and who has sent in compassionate and touching notes about our experience at school. When I started this project, my mission is to show, through our classmates’ own words, how the seeds of Christian values sown by our Jesuits fifty years ago [春風化雨] have blossomed. Many of us are Christians and adhere to our core values. Our December 19, 2015 reunion has provided an unforgettable celebration made special by the company of our teachers and classmates with their own stories to tell, some new, some familiar. Reunion has always been a time to celebrate these relationships with each other and with our high school. Our photos will bring back fond memories. We treasure what we shared and look forward to sharing our next fifty years together.
