轉載 WYKPSA: Lunch in Central on weekdays


Dear Alumni,

Undoubtedly, a lot of Wahyanites are now working in Central or nearby area in all kinds of professions and industries.  WYKPSA would like to gather a group of alumni who are working in Central or nearby area so that we can have lunch on weekdays at regular intervals.

If you are interested, please register by sending an email to wahyanpsa@gmail.com.  Wahyanites who are now university students are also welcome!  Surely, registration does not mean that you have to commit to attend the lunch gatherings every time and this will be subject to your own availability at that time.  Nevertheless, registration enables you to be kept informed of the forthcoming lunch gatherings.

We look forward for your support!

Kind regards,
Wah Yan College Kowloon Past Students' Association

轉載 WYKPSA: Message from the Jesuit Education Board regarding EDB's decision


Dear Alumni,

We attach hereto a copy of the letter from the Education Bureau of the HKSAR Government to the school principals and set out below a message from the Jesuit Education Board to the School Management Committee of WYK for your reference:

"The Jesuit Education Board (JEB) representing the School Sponsoring Body is of the opinion that Wah Yan College, Kowloon will accept the EDB's decision for the schools in the Yau Tsim Mong (YTM) District. We are not going to apply for exemption basically because we do not have strong reason that can justify our application. Wah Yan College, Hong Kong, however, is qualified for exemption since it has a feeder school. Even if we are to be allocated 2-1-1, we are only 5 students less than the 1-1-1 option in the first year and throughout the next three years. We also notice that the change is only temporary as we like other schools need to increase the class size back to its original level when the S1 population rises."

Kind regards,
Wah Yan College Kowloon Past Students’ Association

轉載 WYKPSA: Please help our school to repair the windows of Fathers' Quarters

The windows of the Fathers' Quarters located at 3/F of the Main Building of WYK are 60 years old, most of which are now rusting.

Recently, three window glasses fell down onto the carpark. Fortunately, no one was hurt.

The school is not authorized to use any government funding to repair such windows since the Fathers' Quarters are not treated as part of the school premises.

The Fathers' Community will be held liable if any injuries or damages are caused. In light of the aforesaid, the school urgently need to replace 20 sets of windows at the Fathers' Quarters at the total cost of HK$90,000.

As initiated by Mr. Stanislaus Keung, all alumni are encouraged to show their support towards the repair works by making donations at any amount. If you are pleased to donate for the repair works, please send a crossed cheque payable to “Bellarmine A/C” to:
WYK Past Students' Association
c/o Wah Yan College Kowloon
56 Waterloo Road
Kowloon

The above bank account is the account of the Fathers' Community.

In the event the amount of donations exceed HK$90,000, the surplus will be used for other repairs and maintenance works of the Fathers' Quarters.

For further details, please contact Mr. Stanislaus Keung at sk@wyk.edu.hk

轉載 Message from Fr. Chow, School Supervisor


2012/7/23

Dear Alumni of WYK,

Good morning. I would like to confirm that the School Sponsoring Body and the School Management Committee have received a letter of resignation from Dr. John Tan as Principal of the school due to family reasons. However we are grateful that he is willing to stay on for another year until August 31, 2013 for the Sponsoring Body to identify his successor. Failing to dissuade the Principal from resigning, the Sponsoring Body, i.e., the Society of Jesus, has accepted his decision with regrets. This was followed by the School Management Committee's reluctant endorsement when we met on 12th June, 2012.

Although another academic year has yet to pass before his departure from our school, I would like to thank John for his determination to improve the quality of teaching and learning as well as character development of students as reflected in the school's major concerns. I believe it is proper to assure our school community that the Sponsoring Body remains appreciative and supportive of John's vision of and commitment to Jesuit education.

The Sponsoring Body will have to begin the recruitment process in this September or October. It is likely that we will consult our stakeholder groups for the recruitment the qualities of the next principal in light of Jesuit education. We are resolved to recruit a principal who can embrace our Jesuit vision while working with the different stakeholder groups to make it a blessed reality in the school community.

Peace,
Fr. Chow
School Supervisor
