20 and 25 September 2017-- Inter-house Swimming Gala
The school community gathered at the Kowloon Park Swimming Pool on Monday afternoon, 25th September, for the annual Inter-house Swimming Gala. Following the heats on the 20th September, those in anticipation of spectacular races in the shimmering, blue lanes were in no way disappointed.
The afternoon's events started off with the opening ceremony, with a rousing rendition of the School Hymn. Swimming events then commenced, with onlookers enthusiastically cheering on the participants. The pool arena roared with rhythmic, carefully choreographed chants and slogans as each house delivered their best during the Cheering Competition. Sawyer House was eventually crowned Champion in this event.
Swimmers, spurred on by the energy from the crowd, gave their all, with records broken in the final relay events. In the end, Symons House came First overall, keeping a solid lead through their younger swimmers in both B and C Grades. We were graced with the presence of Mrs. Alice Lo Fok Yuk Chun, Chief School Development Officer of the Yau Tsim Mong district, who graciously presented medals and prizes to our girls as our guest of honour.
22 September 2017 -- 66th PTA Annual General Meeting
It was a full house in the Auditorium this evening as parents and teachers gathered for the 66th Annual General Meeting (AGM) of the DGS Parent Teacher Association.
At the start of the evening, audience members were treated to delightful musical performances by students, with the DGS Symphony Orchestra playing two lively dances from the Nutcracker, and the DGJS Intermediate Choir combining angelic singing with graceful dancing and rhythmic percussion for pieces in Mandarin and Greek respectively.
Among other formal proceedings of the AGM, the night saw reports from the PTA Chairperson, Mrs. Sherlynn Chan Wong, and the Headmistresses of DGS and DGJS, Mrs. Stella Lau and Mrs. Annie Lee, evidencing the positive home-school partnerships developed by different parties to support the growth of our girls. In line with this, parents also had the opportunity on this occasion to meet their girls' teachers for informal discussions on school life and academics, paving the way for success throughout the rest of the school year.
