Commemorating Our 165th Anniversary: Symposium on Girls' Education (24 April 2026)

To commemorate the school’s 165th anniversary, the school community came together on April 24, 2026 to attend a special Symposium on Girls' Education on the topic "Nurturing Virtues and Devotion to the Nation": A Century's Legacy and Navigating the Future of Girls' Education.

We were honoured to invite Ms. Rosanna Law, Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism of the HKSAR, to officiate the event. Afterwards, students listened to an insightful fireside chat between Prof. John Lee, President of The Education University of Hong Kong, Ms. Lee Yi Ying, Principal of Kowloon True Light School, Mr. Leung Yee Ho Genthew, Principal of Pope Paul VI College, and our Headmistress Mrs. Stella Lau.

Next, we invited two special guest speakers, Ms. Nisa Leung, Managing Partner at Aulis Capital and Prof. Bernadette Tsui, HKU Faculty of Social Sciences, to share their personal experiences in girls’ education.

Besides prominent female speakers, we have invited students from Kowloon True Light School and Pope Paul VI College as well. In addition to a sharing given by students of our own school, students shared a glimpse into their respective schools’ history and unique cultures, and how their schools have contributed to the transformation of female education in Hong Kong over the years.

Through the dialogue between prominent women leaders in different fields and future pioneers, we are inspired to pave our own way by painting our own canvases with vibrant colours gathered along our journey to success. The symposium exemplifies how women unite to empower one another, ensuring a legacy of leadership for years to come by refining us into women of excellence, both inside and out.

We would like to once again thank all guest speakers as well as Kowloon True Light School and Pope Paul VI College for participating in such a meaningful event that surely empowered our students to become future change makers in Hong Kong and beyond.
