感恩與迴響

✽教育工作的感悟

Live Life to the Fullest

Tse Kam Ming (1975 NCE Alumnus)

It brought to my attention that this year is the 75th Anniversary of Northcote College

of Education Past Students’ Association. On this occasion, I would like to express my

heartiest appreciation to the Association for its continuous fostering bondage amongst the

members and mobilizing us to serve the community.

I was a graduate of NCE in 1975. After since, I have been serving in the

Congregation of the Immaculate Heart of Mary Scheut Mission for 37 years, for the

first 15 years as a teacher and senior teacher and the remaining 22 years as the founding
principal of 3 primary schools.

I commenced my retirement in September 2012. Since then, some of my relatives

and friends always told me that I could enjoy my life, touring here and there. However,

possibly due to the arrangements of God, I was invited to be the supervisor of a primary

school, the school manager of three schools and a part time tutor in a local University

after only retiring for one month. It was remarkable to serve as the supervisor and

school manager, especially during the period of transition from School Management

Committee to Incorporate Management Committee. Not only did the tedious process
create a tremendous amount of workload, but it also taught us the importance of the legal

responsibilities we need to shoulder together.

Although the circumstances we are facing are hard, the duties are very meaningful.

Through the governance of Incorporate Management Committee, the schools have

become more accountable, enhancing autonomy, actualizing their own uniqueness and

creating participative decision making. As a result, it provides effective school education

for the students.
