On 23 March 2024, the Champagnat Hall was abuzz with excitement as we hosted the highly anticipated SFX Talentine 2024! This spectacular event brought together our honored guests, dear parents, teachers, and fellow students for an unforgettable experience.

Our talented students took center stage, showcasing their incredible skills in both the matinee and evening shows. The performances were truly mesmerizing, and we received an overwhelming response from the audience.

Our Masters of Ceremony warmly welcomed our special guests, including primary students from nearby schools - Tak Sun School, Tai Kok Tsui Catholic Primary School, Tai Kok Tsui Catholic Primary School (Hoi Fan Road), Yaumati Catholic Primary School, and Yaumati Catholic Primary School (Hoi Wang Road).

The show featured an array of outstanding musical performances, including a joint orchestra performance by YCPS and SFXC, which received a standing ovation! The School Choir, Chinese Ensemble, and String Orchestra further electrified the audience, taking the show to new heights.

But that's not all! Our students also wowed the crowd with surf-skating demonstrations, English and Chinese dramas, dazzling dance performances, and an English film-dubbing performance that left everyone in awe.

As the grand finale, our school principal, Mr. Leung, led all guests, teachers, and students in a heartfelt rendition of our school song, bringing the annual SFX Talentine 2024 to a beautiful close.

During the period from 4th March to 21st March, our school hosted the annual Evangelization Week, a collaborative effort between the Pastoral Committee and the Religious Studies Committee. The primary goal of this event was twofold: to deepen students’ religious understanding and to provide them with tools and strategies for managing the demands of their busy study schedules.

Here are the highlights of Evangelization Week:

1.     Icon Appreciation and Harp Music Therapy:

o All Form 1 to Form 5 students participated in class-by-class sessions held at the school chapel.

o Our invited guest, Ms. Cindy Ng, guided students through the appreciation of religious icons and the soothing experience of harp music therapy.

2.     Religious Quiz and Morning Songs:

o During lunchtime, students engaged in a lively religious quiz, testing their knowledge and fostering a sense of community.

o In the mornings before assembly, uplifting religious songs resonated throughout the school, creating a positive and reflective atmosphere.

3.     Closing Mass:

o The week culminated with a solemn Closing Mass presided over by Fr. Natalius Suryanto, S.V.D. on Thursday after school.

o The Mass provided an opportunity for reflection, prayer, and spiritual renewal.

The evaluation and feedback from participants were overwhelmingly positive. Students found the event useful, meaningful, and helpful in deepening their faith and fostering a sense of connection within our school community.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all who contributed to the success of Evangelization Weeks 2024.

We had the pleasure of hosting two enriching Religious Experience Days for students from local primary schools. On 15 March, 30 students from Taikoktsui Catholic Primary School, accompanied by their vice principal and religious teachers, joined us for a day filled with spiritual learning and creativity. This was followed by a visit from 40 students from Tak Sun Primary School on 19 March.

The program began with an engaging introduction to our school’s religious activities, presented by our committee members of the Catholic Student Association. This set the stage for a meaningful sharing session on Religious Icons, deepening the students’ understanding of these sacred images.

A highlight of the visit was the “Pearl of God” workshop, where participants, with the help of student volunteers, crafted their own pearls. Each pearl was adorned with vibrant colors, a chosen biblical quotation, and personal prayer intentions written on attached memo paper.

The day culminated in a reflective session in the chapel, where students, holding their “Pearl of God” creations, engaged in thoughtful reflection and prayer. The visit ended on a high note with final blessings and a group photo, leaving the students with joyful memories of their time with us.
