Dear fellow alumni,
The year 2010 marks the 95th birthday of our mother school, and it certainly calls for joyous celebration.
The Alumni Association will host a Gala Dinner to celebrate this auspicious occasion. This will be held on Sunday, 19 December 2010 in the Grand Hall of the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. We hope to have a turnout similar to the one w had in celebration of the 90th anniversary of our school in January 2006, when we has close to 2,000 people in attendance. Please mark your diary, call your classmates and book your tables early.
That week in December promises to be a busy one because the annual Carol Service will also be held at St. John's Cathedral on the evening of 16 December 2010. As many of you know, this is an event which was dear to the heart of our past Principal, Dr Kotewall. In the early 1980's, she called together the senior members of the Alumni Choir to entrust them with holding this service for the alumni on behalf of the School. Since then, with the support of the Alumni Association, the Carol Service has become a tradition treasured by many alumni.
Under the guidance of the School Council and our School Principal, Dr Anissa Chan, the School will be organizing a number of events and projects, the details of which will be forthcoming. I understand an Alumni Homecoming Day is being planned for 18 December 2010, the day before the Gala Dinner. Your Association will be actively working with the School to facilitate the holding of this event.
Last but not least, I would like to wish everyone a happy, healthy and successful Year of the Tiger.
