CHUNG YUK MAN MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP

Dear Member

It is with deep sorrow to record the passing of Mr Chung Yuk Man (Old boy-1971/F5). Yuk Man served in the Executive Committee of the Ying Wa College Old Boys’ Association since the 1990s for over a decade, actively participating in the work of the Association. He pioneered the Service Club for Old Boys in the College.  He was instrumental in setting up the Sports Development Fund for sponsoring sports equipment and activities of the College. He also enthusiastically solicited donations for the school campus relocation to Sham Shui Po.

He contributed a lot of his time and energy to and in many ways for the Ying Wa family. He was a role model and an unsung hero for old boys. He will be dearly missed by us all.

In recognition of his outstanding contribution, the College has agreed to the proposal of the Old Boys’ Association to establish a Chung Yuk Man Memorial Scholarship/Prize for a Ying Wa student who excels in sports. We appeal for your kind support and generous donations. You are most welcome to make a donation to support. Tax-deductible receipt for donation of $100 or more will be issued.

Please find enclosed the donation form for your action and thank you for your generous donation.

Yours faithfully

WHO IS KWOK MOK HOI 郭木開?

Based on the research by the Our Heritage & Archive Group so far, he was one of the most outstanding Ying Wa boys of his time.

During his years in Ying Wa, he was a very active member in the school – not only that he was a key member of the scout troop, received the Hong Kong Governor’s letter of commendation in 1926 for rendering first aid to injured persons on two occasions, he was also a member of Ying Wa’s winning basketball team in the Hong Kong basketball open league in 1926 and 1927.

After graduation from Ying Wa, he joined the Royal Hong Kong Regiment (The Volunteers)(皇家香港義勇軍團), participated in the Battle of Hong Kong in December 1941, and upon surrender on 26 December 1941, escaped from Hong Kong to continue the Allied’s campaign against Japanese invasion, eventually arrived at Kunming and served as a war interpreter for the US airforce. He continued to serve at the Royal Hong Kong Regiment (The Volunteers) for many years after the war.

As a keen sportsman, he devoted his career in the development of sports in Hong Kong – in 1936, he became the head of YMCA sports department, and after the war in 1955, he was appointed as the head of the Elizabeth Stadium – one of the few key indoor sports venues in those days, and remained in that position until his retirement in 1966.

As a Ying Wa alumni, for many years, he was remembered as “the man with a gun” in many of the annual Ying Wa Athletic Meets, officiating track events by firing his riffle. From 1956 till late 1960s, he acted as the secretary of YWC Old Boys Association.

Letter to appeal for donation to Iles Scholarship in Theological Education

Dear Ying Wa old boys,

At the beginning of 2019, I wish you all a blessed and prosperous new year!

The Bicentennial celebration has concluded successfully in December 2018, with the Banquet held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre as its highlight. While many old boys contributed time, efforts or sponsorships to the celebration activities, there was an old boy, with his love to Ying Wa, donated over 2,600 pieces of “Ying Wa Mug” at the Banquet as a souvenir to each participant in celebration of the bicentenary of his alma mater. Although he preferred to remain anonymous, he humbly hoped that Ying Wa old boys, having received the mug, would honor the founding aim of the College – “The reciprocal cultivation of Chinese and English literature and the diffusion of Christianity” and support the “Terence Iles Scholarship in Theological Education” (the “Iles Scholarship”) by donating HK$100 or more to the fund.

To maintain a healthy balance of the Iles Scholarship fund to perpetually sponsor old boys to pursue their studies in Theological education, your support and contribution to the Iles Scholarship is much appreciated. Please fill in the donation form attached to support the fund!

We thank you for your contribution in advance and look forward to your favourable reply.

Best regards,

Allan CHENG

英華書院一八一八年在馬六甲創立，一八四三年遷至香港，是香港現存歷史最悠久的學校。書院命名為「英華」，有肩負帶動中西文化交流重任的意思。
 
英華書院與漢學、華語翻譯、基督教在華傳播、香港西式教育、華文報刊出版及印刷方面的發展息息相關。時至今日，作為一所以傳揚福音為己任的學校，英華書院的辦學宗旨是提供優質教育，讓年輕人在各方面得到均衡發展，成為才德兼備的好公民。二○一八年適逢英華書院創校二百周年，香港郵政特別發行一張郵票小型張，紀念這個重要的里程碑。
 
郵票小型張以「承傳使命　皕載自強」為題，展示書院不同時期的校舍。「皕」是二百的意思；郵票小型張上以小孔拼出「皕」字，呼應書院二百周年校慶的主題。郵票中的外籍人士是書院創辨人馬禮遜牧師，他是首位來華的基督傳教士。
 
各郵政局明日（十月二十六日）起發售正式首日封，每個售價一元三角。郵票及相關集郵品同日起在郵政總局、尖沙咀郵政局、荃灣郵政局、沙田中央郵政局和屯門中央郵政局展出。另外，各集郵局明日至十一月一日期間接受自備封蓋銷服務的申請。
