我與香港愛德循環運動有不解之緣
Chain of Charity Movement (COCM)
香港愛德循環運動始於大約1976年，由大嶼山天主教熙篤修會莊宗澤神父和幾位熱心的天主教教友，包括劉君雅、盧桂安、林小鳳等發起。
他們有感於世界各地很多人都因為天災人禍而生活於極度艱難的環境，而身在香港的天主教徒，相對地過著十分幸福的生活，因此，他們發起每年在各天主教堂區收集已使用過的聖誕賀咭，把咭面切割出來，重新用人手貼在印有聖誕節祝福語的咭底上，在各堂區發售籌款。每年籌得的善款，不扣除開支，全數捐給一個經大家商討後所選擇，位於香港或外國，有我們認識的天主教徒參與的愛德服務。

James Tong Scholarship at WYK in support of students in need. Please click here to view the Appeal Letter by Principal Chung
Background
James Tong passed away on October 4, 2020. His wife Marita wrote a touching tribute in which she said in lieu of flowers, “James will be very pleased if you do an unexpected act of generosity in his name.” To honour her wish and in the spirit of what James had done all his life, we looked into different options by way of setting up a James Tong fund to help students in Hong Kong. We are pleased that WYK has a “Fr. Kelly Educational Fund Ltd” in place, and under this fund, we can easily set up a Professor James Tong Scholarship for Resilience” (see separate document attached) to help students in need. Recipients of James Tong scholarship, each in the amount of HK$10,000, will be WYK students from S.1 to S.6 who have shown resilience in adversity and displayed satisfactory academic and non-academic performance despite family financial hardship. Under this fund, WYK will report to us each year how many James Tong scholarships are awarded using donations to James Tong Scholarship.
Remembrance Day is a day for all Canadians to remember the men and women who served and sacrificed for our country. It is a day we encourage every individual, young and old, to pause, to give thanks and to remember.
重歲已屆心尚哀
拜告吾師意蹉跎
母校精英折幾許(1)
有知當嘆共噓唏
一年親炙景遙遠(2)
十載提筆尚依依(3)
數訪多城溫顏晤
銘記敦厚苦毅殷
世事風雲轉厲色
瘟疫人禍虐齊施
鄉關日遠冬關叩
鐵塔凌雲仍繫思(4)
半途而廢驚天變
此時彼地此模樣
自檢平生唯避席
長記青春竹馬遊
八年無猜相敬樂(5)
難抵時窮各東西
此日思君倍感慨
返尋五內証初衷
神父師長深教誨
讀書明理共扶持
華仁公義名早播
巍巍聖殿五洲崇(6)
Our beloved legendary music teacher, Mr. LEE Tak Kuan, Tak Suk (Uncle Tak), passed away on 30th October 2020 at the age of 92. His family accompanied him at his bedside during his final hours.
Tak Suk studied composition and music theory under the tutelage of the first generation of Hong Kong composers, YE Chun Zhi and others. He also took vocal lessons from Russian soprano Madame Oshayev. He was featured in many operas as the lead singer and performed in many church services. His active music life won him many lasting friendships in the music circle.
Between 1974 and 1991, Tak Suk was the Head of Music at Wah Yan College, Kowloon. Under his baton, the School Choir won more than twenty championships in the Hong Kong Schools Music Festival. His humorous approach to education impressed many of his students and he maintained a close friendship with his choristers beyond retirement.
