Close to 2000 students, teachers, parents and alumni from both SFX schools took part in the Marist 200 Walkathon, the kick-off event for the Marist 200 Celebration Campaign. The walkathon was held at the Shing Mun Reservoir Country Park on 3rd December 2016. It aimed at raising fund for the series of events to celebrate the 200th Anniversary of the Marist Brothers. With good weather on our side and high spirits in our heart, the walkathon was a resounding success.
On St. Francis Xavier’s Day (2nd December 2016), we began the morning with a Holy Mass. After the Mass, the students eagerly participated in various activities, such as inter-house sports and debating competitions, movie appreciation and many more. It was a day with great religious importance and a day of great fun for our students.
The F.4 Parents’ Gathering was held on Saturday, 26th November 2016. 107 parents attended the function.
A briefing session on senior secondary curriculum was conducted by our Vice- Principal and our Career and Guidance Mistress informed the parents about the prospects of our students after their graduation. Afterwards, a sharing session was conducted by our Social Worker. She shared some tips on getting along with teenagers. Most of the parents found the event informative and helpful.
On 25th November 2016, we had our annual school picnic. As usual, F.3 students participated in a 2-day education camp while others had the freedom to choose their own destinations for their trip. It was a good day’s fun when teachers and students could put down their serious face in learning and relax.
