Preface

th
To celebrate 50 anniversary of the school’s Athletics Meet, the school is
publishing a special photo album to commemorate the glorious moments.

Despite our school’s limited facilities, students have been performing
outstandingly in track and field events. The Hong Kong Catholic Diocesan
Secondary Schools Joint Athletics Meet was first held in 1970. Our school won
the first three championships consecutively and was granted the privilege to
keep the Bishop Cup permanently. In the next 20 games, we were always one
of the top four most competitive schools. Moreover, in the Inter-school Athletics
Competition, our school has been playing in the first tier – Division One - for more
than 30 years since 1982. It was really the icing on the cake that our athletes
have produced three Hong Kong records and numerous inter-school records.

Our excellent performance in track and field can be attributed to the Athletic Meet
held every year. A myriad of potential students has been discovered by our P.E.
teachers and become great athletes. In order to promote sports and to connect
teachers, students, parents and alumni, various competitions and invitational
competitions have also been held throughout the years.

In this photo album, we are witnessing the efforts and hard work of all the
participants. We look forward to more successes in sports in the upcoming future!
