Charity Sales (13 and 14.01.2012)

Last Updated on Saturday, 04 February 2012 23:18

As part of the School and PTA’s joint community service programme this year, a charity sales to sponsor the under-privileged children from Tin Shui Wai to go to Ocean Park in February was successfully organized on 13th and 14th January, 2012 at the School. We are pleased that the response from students/parents and teachers was heartening. A total sum of HK$17,155 was raised after deduction of cost of sales from 235 kind-hearted students/parents and 30 teachers who generously bought the charity items to support the event.

This is the first charity sales the PTA organized since the association was established. We are gratified by the enthusiasm of the student, parents, and teachers for their love and care to the community.

Our heartfelt thanks also go to the Project Coordinator Gigi Morales, Co-opt Members Sarah Chan, Kendice Lui, and Iris Lee and parent volunteers for their dedicated efforts in making this event a success.

“Joint Green Campaign and Help the Needy” Project (13.01.2012-14.01.2012)

Last Updated on Saturday, 04 February 2012 23:17

The “Joint Green Campaign and Help the Needy Project” co-organized by the School and PTA for the 5th year was successfully held again on Friday & Saturday, 13-14 Jan, 2012 at the School. Thanks to the generosity and kindness of more than 138 parents, a total of 105 packs of recycled items including winter clothes, electrical appliances, story books, toys, bags, watches, etc. that are in excellent conditions were graciously collected.

We are pleased that recycled items collected this year are able to serve two different charity organizations for the under-privileged.

Books for juniors have been donated to Yang Memorial Methodist Social Service – Tin Shui Wai Family Education and Support Centre to their served children.

Winter clothes, electrical appliances and other items have been donated to the Caritas Rehabilitation Service in Hong Kong for the needy and to help the under-privileged children and families in Hong Kong through resale of recycled items in the Caritas Wai Bo Fong Second Hand Recycling Store operation.

We believe that this project is able to serve the dual-purpose of instilling environmental consciousness in our daughters and helping the underprivileged children and families at the same time.

The PTA earnestly extends the heartfelt thanks to the parents, School, and parent volunteers for the tremendous support in making this meaningful event another success.
