春季有機農莊大自然之旅活動花絮 (9/3/2014)
2014年3月9日, 星期日.
雖然星期天是陰天, 幸而沒有下雨, 我們68名從1959年至1997年的校友早上準時齊集英華書院 出發到有機農場遊覽。校友們渡過了一個愉快和遠離繁囂的時光,大家不但加深了對本地有機農產品的認識，更品嘗了本地美食，小朋友們藉此與農場小動物接觸, 樂也融融 。 午膳時, 校友們顯示出巨大的創造力, 嘗試親手製作本地客家農村的美味茶果, 即做即食, 樂趣十分。午膳後更有校友們自摘合時有機蔬菜, 滿載而歸。
校友會藉此感謝校友們的支持, 令是次活動得以成功，並期待在未來的活動中再次與大家見面。

英華復校100周年(2014/2/9)
英華書院於1818年創立於馬六甲，並於1843年遷港，但其後經歷過停辦階段。幸得教㑹及倫敦傳道會的協助，英華於1914年2月9日正式復校。
今天(2014/2/9)是英華復校100周年。願一衆英華人薪火相傳：篤信善行，榮神樹人。
英華書院校長鄭鈞傑
