Visiting an Old Boy

On 26th February, our Chemistry Panel Master Mr. Ching led a group of F.5 students to visit Dr. Vincent Ko, one of our distinguished old boys from the Class 1996. He is an Associate Professor of the Department of Chemistry in City University of Hong Kong. The purpose of our visit was to get advice for the Inter-school Chemistry Competition. Dr. Ko greeted us warmly. On top of giving us insightful advice, he also shared his study and research experience in his alma mater and university. It was no doubt a wonderful experience for both the hosting and visiting Xaverians.

F6 Cheer-up Gathering and Discussion of Papers

26th February, 2018 was the first of the three consecutive days our F.6 students came back to receive their mock exam results. To show them some support, a cheer-up gathering was held in the morning during which our recent graduates came back to share their experience in preparation for the HKDSE. Encouraging words from parents and teachers were also displayed, hoping that our boys could hang in there and gain the strength to keep going.

We wish our F.6 boys every success in their HKDSE.

Parents Day 2017-2018

Our Parents Day for 2017-2018 was successfully held on 11th February 2017. It was considered a nerve-breaking day for many of our students due to the anxiety their felt when their parents met their form teachers and received the report cards for their first term exam results. All turned out to be fine, there were surely lots of excitements and disappointments but they were all important parts of a learning process. Let’s hope that those with good results will be humble and keep up their good work. For the others, they should redouble their effort and learn from their mistakes.

Earthlings at JA Company Trade Fair

On the 10th February 2018, “Earthlings”, our student firm for the JA Company Program (JACP) this year, successfully put up its booth in the trade fair at Kwun Tong Vessel.

The event started with an opening ceremony in which our principal Mr. Iu received an award for the school's continuous support of the event for 5 years.

The main product of Earthling was EcoSac, an smart water bottle bag designed and handmade by our students. The product attracted a lot of customers' attention as they were amazed by the students' ability to integrate technology into eco-friendly materials.

The directors, led by CEO Poon King Leong from class 5B, completed their presentation in the JACP semi-final competition during the afternoon session. The team credited the two Business Advisors Paul Ho and Francis Chan, both our alumni, for their endless patience and kind support in each and every way.

Towards the end of the event, a group of fellow Xaverians and alumni surrounded the team and sang the school song together to celebrate their months of hard work.
