Prayers

Good morning, everyone. We are the representatives of the Yellow House. Today, we’d like to share a few thoughts on this month’s theme: being aware of our blessings, finding contentment, and discovering joy in all things. In the daily rush of school life, it is easy to get caught up in deadlines, tests, and routine

J: Every fourth Sunday in September is observed as Catholic Education Day, a special occasion for all Catholic schools to reflect on what learning and living together truly mean. The theme for this year is “With the same love, thinking one thing.” It is not just a slogan, but it’s actually about something we experience

早晨！在開始分享今天既主題前，我想問大家一個問題，如果你有一千萬，你會願意捐出多少錢做善事呢？50萬?100萬？而中國近代史上，便有一位人物，如果他有一千萬，他會捐出一千萬。他是誰？他就是馬相伯。 今天，我想跟大家分享馬相伯先生的故事。他是復旦大學的創辦人，一生毀家興學，把自己所有的家產都捐給了教育。 馬相伯生於晚清年間一個信奉天主教的家庭，早期晉升為耶穌會神父，及後見到國難當前，憤而還俗，積極投身洋務運動。在甲午戰爭後，又對清廷失望，退出政壇改為投入教學。 1900年，他將自己3000畝田產全部捐給教會，作為辦學基金，讓那些有天賦、有志向卻讀不起書的貧苦青年，能夠免費或獲得資助接受高等教育，為國家保留知識的火種。之後他創辦了震旦學院、復旦大學，更促成了輔仁大學的誕生。 在九一八事變後，他以90多歲的高齡積極投入救國運動，發表文章同演講，因此被人尊為「愛國老人」。其後戰亂四起，他又過著顛沛流離的生活。最終在1939年病逝。 馬相伯是一位近代的教育家、政治家、愛國人士。他捐盡家財的行為，讓我們看到甚麼是「心靈富足」，亦都印證本月主題：「察覺恩寵、知足常樂」。他的知足，是因為他不是只著重個人的物質生活，而是希望用自身之力放在國家發展，作育英才，這種付出為他帶來更大的滿足感。 大家如果想多了解這位人物，在四樓會看到馬相伯的畫像。最後希望同學在物質富裕的社會中，嘗試尋找獨屬於你的心靈富足。   Ms Chan KY

When you enter Form 6, life often feels like it’s taking its toll on you. With endless tests on consecutive days, daily extra lessons, and additional tutoring to boost our grades, everything piles on quickly. In the middle of all this pressure, it becomes very easy to overlook the blessings around us. Tests seem harsher,

Good morning, everyone. We are the student representatives of 6J. As we sing in our school song, our school is a ‘oh my dear school, home for my soul, light for my mind, warmth for my heart’. Over our six years here, we learn, explore, and grow. Yet, this journey of growth is rarely smooth—we

The theme of this month is “Be aware of blessings, find contentment and joy in all things,” and our house would like to take this opportunity to reflect on how seeing inspiration in others helps us live out this truth, especially when working together as a team in Blue House. There are many inspiring figures

Good morning, Principal, teachers, and Shungtakians.This month, our sharing theme is “Be aware of blessings, find contentment and joy in all things.” Today, I would like to share a little more about the idea of contentment and joy. You may wonder: Is it really possible to find contentment and joy in ALL things, even when

Good morning, everyone! Over the past few days, I asked students a question in the beginning of the first lesson, that is do you feel well-rested and recharged in the holiday? I got almost the exact same answer, which is a no, accompanied by disappointed, tired faces. The reasons are quite similar, having to deal

Good morning. Today, we, the Prefect Team, will be sharing with you. The theme of this month is “Be Aware of Blessings, Find Contentment and Joy in All Things.” What comes to your mind when you hear the word “blessings”? Maybe big things like family, friends, health, or good grades. But we want to share

Good morning, principal, teachers and students. Let me ask you something. Have any of you ever played a mobile game where you spent real money to get a rare character or item? And after getting it, you realized… it’s actually not that good. But you kept using it anyway, or kept spending more money trying
