2013 Jubilee Reunion 畢業金禧紀念

 

粵華中學大熊星社畢業金禧紀念

五十年不變，大家都耳熟能詳。一群畢業五十週年的粵華同學，雖然分散在世界各地，再次相約回到母校共聚一堂，慶祝一個特別的日子。

        二○一三年是英文部大熊星社（Great Bear II）畢業五十週年。半個世紀之後，約三十個同學再回到當年讀書的地方，與校長陳文彬及副校長伍助志及一班教職員等共聚。校長陳文彬對各同學回校的熱忱表示高興及對他們的成就加以讚賞。此外，校長及副校長還特別介紹粵華的創校歷史，歷任校長的功績，以及未來的發展等等。

        如眾所週知，學生的成功，全賴粵華擁有一個極優秀之教師團隊，國際知名。所教育的學生，歷屆人材輩出，為社会作出貢獻。

        由趙善威同學代表大熊星社向母校致謝，感激各位師長的指導、培訓。並簡述各同學畢業之後，無論繼續學業，營商或就業，均有所成，毋負母校的期望。各同學之中，營商者有四人，包括物流、製衣、珠寶及航運，更擁有自己的船隊，企業，工厰等；醫生有四人；從事銀行財經界有四人；專業人士如工程師、測量師，英國特許保險學會院士等三人；加入港澳公務員隊伍，包括亷政公署，工務局，房屋署等亦有數位。在各個領域都得到一定的成就。

        此外，大熊星社數位同學在畢業後以個人名義或班社名義捐贈七個獎學金，獎勵在學業成績優異之學生，對學弟起示範作用。該獎學金由梁星棋同學統籌，何廣凌神父，社友莫國興，潘澤生同學管理，轉眼己經連續頒發三十五年。今年，為紀念畢業五十年，響應獎學基金管理會呼籲籌募特別基金以鞏固長期收益，各同學合共捐贈壹萬元及另一位同學以個人名義捐贈壹萬元以示帶頭作用，作為回饋母校之一點心意，

大家從當年的少年到今日的長者，同學有緣，相聚歡笑。晚上，黎榮樂同學在萬豪軒設宴歡迎各地回歸同學，共歡而散。

Beware of paper in the back window of your vehicle

From Keith Leung

BEWARE OF PAPER IN THE BACK WINDOW OF YOUR VEHICLE
NEW WAY TO DO CAR JACKING
(NOT A JOKE)
Heads up everyone! Please, keep this circulating...
You walk across the parking lot, unlock your car and get inside.
You start the engine and shift into Reverse.
When you look into the rearview mirror to back out of your parking space, you notice a piece of paper stuck to the middle of the rear window. So, you shift into Park, unlock your doors, and jump out of your car to remove that paper (or whatever it is) that is obstructing your view.
When you reach the back of your car, that is when the car jackers appear out of nowhere, jump into your car and take off.
They practically mow you down as they speed off in your car.
And guess what, ladies? I bet your purse is still in the car.
So now the car jacker has your car, your home address, your money, and your keys. Your home and your whole identity are now compromised!
BEWARE OF THIS NEW SCHEME THAT IS
NOW BEING USED....
If you see a piece of paper stuck to your back window, just drive away.
Remove the paper later. And be thankful that you read this e-mail.
I hope you will forward this to friends and family, especially to women.
A purse contains all kinds of personal information and identification documents, and you certainly do NOT want this to fall into the wrong hands.

Hi Victor
Yes. That's the last we heard of Patrick and Raymond Tchou too
If you have any old photos or recent photos of our classmates at reunion or Yuet Wah I would appreciate seeing them.
I took my wife and kid there many years ago just to see where I went to school
I have often wondered where all our classmates are and what they are all doing. I forgot so many names
I remember Just you, Raymond and James Lai. But so many other names have escaped me but I can see their faces as plain as day.
Tell me whatever you can about them all.

Glad to hear that Mr. Wong joined you. I do remember how naughty we all were to him.
I can still remember the day someone put those popping fireworks on the raised platform next to the blackboard where teachers had to stand to reach the board.
Mr Chow walked on them and jumped when they popped. He was always mad at us for making his life miserable.
Do you have any pictures from those days??

Hi Keith

Getting the photos of everyone at Yuet Wah motivated me hunt up the diary that I kept while I was in Macau.
I looked up todays' date and here's what I wrote back in this day on May 29, 1961 when we were all in Form III at Yuet Wah.

"Mr. Victal got mad in class today because some of the boys behind the "38th parallel" were talking while he was giving his lessons.
He walked out of the classroom and stayed outside our window. He came in some time later and threatened to go down to Fr. Rubini and lodge a complaint if the boy who was talking didn't volunteer to go to the blackboard and write down the lesson as punishment.
He counted to ten.
When he got to ten and no one confessed he stormed out of the room again.
Shortly he came back in and gave us all "one final warning."
At last Lo Wing Yu (number 21) stood up to confess. He confessed but showed no remorse."

Thought it might bring back some old memories

Hi Frank
Thanks for the power point with all the photos of Modern Day Macau
I'll have to say the place has really changed.




I use to tell people if they wanted to see what old China looks like to visit Macau
I'm not going to say that anymore.
The place looks so modern and cosmopolitan now.
Like you I didn't recognize anything except a couple of old monuments.
We were last there about 23 years ago so all this has taken place since then because I don't remember seeing anything so modern when I was last there.
I was really impressed...but a little sad that all the cobblestone streets and old buildings are gone.
Victor said our old house is still there, though.

Thanks for the family photo
I put it on the photo album

Victor sent more photos of our old classmates today. I added them. I don't recognize a lot of them so hopefully someone will add their names.
