Parents Day 2023-2024

Our Parents Day event for 2023-2024, held on 25 February 2024, was a resounding success! While it may have been a nerve-wracking experience for some of our students, we're thrilled to report that it was an incredibly valuable and enriching experience for all.

Seeing our students' faces light up as they shared their academic achievements and daily performances with their parents and form teachers was truly heartwarming. Of course, there were moments of excitement and disappointment, but these are all essential parts of the learning journey.

To our students who excelled, we encourage you to stay humble and keep up the fantastic work! And to those who faced challenges, remember that mistakes are opportunities for growth and learning. Let's work together to redouble our efforts and strive for excellence.

Last but not least, we extend our sincerest gratitude to all our wonderful parents, whose love, care, and support are the driving force behind our students' success. Thank you for being an integral part of our school community!

Visit of Marist Brothers

Three esteemed guests from Marist Brothers paid us a visit on 1st and 2nd February 2024. These Marist visitors included Brother Luis Carlos (the Vicar General), Brother Goyo Linacero (the Assistant to the Econome General), and Brother Allan De Castro (the Appointed Provincial of East Asia). During their short trip to Hong Kong, they visited both Marist schools. They met and exchanged ideas with the student representatives, school administrators, and IMC managers of both schools. We were encouraged by the Brothers' visit and promised to carry on with St. Marcellin Champagnat's mission to enlighten the youth in Hong Kong in their journey of growth.

F.6 Last Day for Class 2023

On 19th January 2024, the F.6 boys of Class 2023 had their last day of lessons at school.

Continuing our decade-old tradition, the F.6 boys organized a heartfelt farewell ceremony to bid farewell to their teachers, younger Xaverian brothers, and alma mater. Standing together with their class teachers, they formed the number '24' as a symbol of their upcoming graduation year in 2024. From that day forward, they embarked on their journey of final preparation for the HKDSE. We wish the boys of Class 2023 good luck as they are carrying on with the indomitable Xaverian spirit!

The volunteers served the attendees a delicious meal and prepared different kinds of performance and gifts for them.

This Christmas was a reminder that the true meaning of Christmas, which is about love, compassion and community. It also gave us an opportunity to bring the joy of Christmas to our neighbors in need.
