DGS wins Inter-school Swimming for the 36th Consecutive Year  (9&18 October 2024)

The Inter-School Swimming Competition (Division I) held at the Kowloon Park Swimming Pool concluded on the 18th of October after 2 days of intense races. Our swimming team achieved outstanding results and captured the Overall Championship for the 36th consecutive year.

In total, we gained 608 points, once again rewriting the highest score we have ever achieved. Two individual records were broken in A grade freestyle and B grade breaststroke. The A grade and C grade medley relay teams also broke records, making a total of 4 records broken for the day.
 
Our achievements stem from the unwavering dedication of our swimmers and the invaluable support of our school and the DGS family. We are deeply thankful for our successes and blessings. We will persist in our pursuit of excellence in the years ahead. As tides change and seasons pass, the DGS legacy will flourish and thrive in the hearts of every Diocesan.

It was a joyous event filled with love, as food items brought in by lower form students were on display in the centre of the Auditorium stage, while senior students responded to the Youth Fellowship’s invitation to participate with monetary donations.

Reverend McCoy from St. Andrew’s Church exhorted us during the assembly to remember God as the source of all good gifts, and the committee members of the Youth Fellowship dedicated their schoolmates’ contributions as well as our lives to God through the song “Take My Life”. We thank God for His overflowing blessings, out of which the school community is able to share with the needy in our community.

Inter-house Athletics Meet (11 September 2024)

Our school community gathered at the Wanchai Sports Ground on the 11th of September to enjoy a fun-filled day of Inter-house Athletics Meet. Our student athletes competed in sprints, hurdles, high jump events and more, showcasing their impressive athletic abilities despite the scorching heat. 
 
As always, the Cheering Competition was a highlight of the day, with all five houses performing their painstakingly choreographed track dances. House teachers also participated in the event, which was full of house spirit and light-hearted energy.

Our Athletics Meet finished with the annual tradition of the Student-Teacher Relay, where each representing house had a team of two teachers and two students. It was a very exciting race, which saw Hurrell House come out victorious again. The final event was the 400-meter Fun Walk, where students and teachers walked around the track before ending the day. Girls from Diocesan Girls' Junior School and Hangzhou Foreign Languages School also joined in this rousing and entertaining Fun Walk.

We congratulate Gibbins House for winning the Cheering Competition, as well as Symons House for being the overall Champion of this year’s Athletics Meet. We thank our coaches who tirelessly train and cheer for our student athletes, as well as all members of the school community who participated and contributed to the success of this year’s Athletics Heats and Finals Day.
