spb66 #76 Thank you letter to the Principal

Thank You for Your Presence at Our Reunion Dinner -- Nov 3

Dear Dr. Kennard,

On behalf of our Class 66 Alumni we would like to thank you whole-heartedly for allowing us to hold our Reunion Dinner in the newly refurbished room on the First Floor of Wong Ming Him Hall. Also we are doubly exhilarated by your presence as our Guest of Honour. We do hope both you and Mrs. Kennard had enjoyed the evening and shared our reminiscence ( after over 40 years ) of our formative years of budding at St. Paul's. We felt the evening particularly memorable as we had all taken our first lessons literally at the same site. We would also like to express our heartfelt gratitude to our Vice-Principal, Mr. Michael Mak and School Archivist, Miss Josephine Ho for their kind assistance with the fine arrangements of the evening. Please do convey to them our most sincere well-wishes.

We are much inspired by your speech informing us on the latest development of our Alma Mater. We are so glad to hear of the 3 main goals of our school : -

- Academic Excellence
- International Perspectives, and
- Community Awareness .

As Alumni ( and possibly past/present parents ) we do share the same vision that these will lay a good foundation for the growth and development of our young school-mates in the Twenty-First Century.

We are so delighted that, through our Reunion, we could gather a strong momentum to generate something more concrete to benefit our Alma Mater. You may be pleased to know that we are now in the process of marshalling voluntary donations from our Class 66 cohort which will, hopefully contribute a substantial amount to add on to the newly established Education Foundation of our School. Also we are much excited to know of the forthcoming Stewart Dinner on December 6, 2008 in commemoration of the 50 years after the passing away of our former Principal, Col. E. G. Stewart. We are looking forward to meet his son, Col. Michael Stewart on that evening.

We truly feel that our life-long bondage with our Alma Mater is further rekindled. Please do keep us informed of the latest developments of both our School as well as Alumni activities so that this big family could be further unified and strengthened.

We are all so proud of being a member of our St. Paul's Big Family.

God Bless St. Paul's ! Viva Viva St. Paul's


Yours sincerely,

TSE Sik-Yan
( Convenor, SPC66 Reunion Dinner 2008 )
