Succession with Pride: Munsang’s 90th Anniversary in Pictures Succession with Pride: Munsang’s 90 th Anniversary in Pictures Front cover designed by Yeung Sin Tung (F.3B) Back cover designed by Kan Po Shuen (F.4B) Advisors: Ms Lam Mau, Ms Wong Ling, Ms Wong Kam Hung, Mr Chow Chi Shing 103 Foreword Succession with Pride: Munsang’s 90th Anniversary in Pictures The School Year 2015 -2016 marks a milestone for Munsangnites: We are proud to celebrate the 90th Anniversary of our School, which has already carved a niche among the paragons in the education sector for our history that lasts almost a century in Hong Kong. The last 90 years are brimming with excitement, turbulence and glory for us: We navigated uncharted waters in our early days on Kai Tack Bund, managed to weather storms and remain robust during the Japanese Occupation in 1930s – 40s, and we were, and still continue to be so, dynamic and resilient enough to scale new heights not only in Kowloon City, but also across the territory, and finally on a world scale: It is our mission to sharpen students’ global visions. In this brochure, you are going to find snapshots that represent the pride we take in the glorious Munsang history, and each celebratory event symbolises our determination to render our utmost to serve our students, our School, and the Hong Kong community. Each of the programmes, in pictures, speaks volumes about our resolve to keep Munsang shining as ever from 1926 onwards. We are custodians of the past, and architects of the future! 1 Contents Kick-off Ceremony ...................................................................................................................................
