Sad News – the passing of Mr Chung Yuk Man (Old boy-1971/F5)

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 Association since the 1990s for over a decade, actively pioneering the sports development fund-raising activities for the Ying Wa College students and also soliciting sponsorship in the school campus relocation to Sham Shui Po.

He contributed so much to and in many ways for the Ying Wa family. He was a role model and an unsung hero at the OBA.

He will be dearly missed by us all.

His funeral will be held on 8-9 June, at the Shatin Po Fook Memorial Hall, details as per the attached obituary notice.

【英華文物保育小組 – Ying Wa Heritage & Archives Group】I

2017年的歷史接力跑,何解起步點是中環士丹頓街(Staunton Street)? 因為英華在港的首個校舍,正是位於士丹頓街和鴨巴甸街(Aberdeen Street) 交界,即PMQ對面的地段。要體驗英華1843年“登港”後170多年的足跡,當然要從士丹頓街出發走到英華街。

一直以來,要了解士丹頓街校舍的外貌,只能靠倫敦傳道會碩果僅存的一張黑白素描…… 但明明1840年代的香港,已有不少畫家在香港謀生,還剛剛開始有商業攝影師。

校史《皕載英華》開機印刷前的10多天,幾位“唔信邪”和“唔忿氣”的校史組成員,作最後衝刺:在重整思路和有關線索後,如有神助,終於在香港藝術館一幅1846年的彩色板畫中的一個小小角落,找到士丹頓街校舍的芳蹤(只佔整個構圖的80份之1!),趕上了出版校史的尾班車,讓大家從可另一角度一睹她昔日的風釆。

這是校史組在過去幾年的資料發掘過程中的一個小故事。最近校史組已進化為校友會的英華文物保育小組(Ying Wa Heritage & Archives Group) 。小組的召集人會在 3月21日晚上八時,分享其他有趣的歷史發現和校史編寫故事。

有興趣加入英華文物保育小組一同保育、研究、發掘和推廣更多鮮為人知的英華故事, 也可以 in-box 我們或 email 到 membership@ywcoba.com。
