Class 1967
Dear WYK Schoolmates of 1967 Class:
Greetings! Hope all is well with you.
2017 is a special year for the 1967 WYK Class because of the 50th year anniversary. Presumably, not every one living outside of Hong Kong may be able to return in early November this year to attend the big celebration there. The schoolmates here in this part of the world are organizing a mini reunion in Toronto on Wednesday Dec 27, 2017. The target or intended participants include (but not limited to) the 1967 schoolmates living in GTA, Eastern Canada, anyone who is willing to travel to Toronto to join us, and WYK teachers. This 50th anniversary celebration will be in the form of a dinner in the evening at the restaurant in the Mon Sheong Court on Steeles Avenue East (at Midland Avenue). Significant others and spouses are also most welcome to join this activity.
We would greatly appreciate your preliminary response via e-mail to me. Your early indication would facilitate the planning process. Please also state how many people will attend the dinner.
We sincerely hope that you would not miss this once-in-a-lifetime “local” 50th anniversary. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Dear Classmates,
Half a century ago…
We all graduated from Wah Yan College, Kowloon in 1967 as teenagers. Since then, we had gone on our separate ways to trek our own paths in life. Some of us had remained in Hong Kong while some of us had ventured overseas. Riding the waves of the Baby Boomers, we had moved from black & white to colour television, from toasters to microwave ovens, from typewriters to computers and from land lines to cellular phones. We had sought higher education and colourful careers while as the world turned, some of us had become fathers and even grandfathers. One thing for sure, whether you like it or not, we had all reached retirement age and become Senior Citizens.
It is time for us to get together again!
Our deepest condolences to his wife and son.
Anthoy Yan (甄棟荣) attended WYK from 1962~1969. He was a family physician in Australia and retired a few years ago.
He passed away Tuesday, April 18, of a sudden heart failure at his home in Sydney, Auatralia. Funeral is tentatively set for next Thursday, April 27.
