To celebrate the 55th anniversary of Sing Yin Secondary School, the school proudly hosted an Open Day event on June 28–29, 2025 (Saturday and Sunday). Members of the public and guests from all walks of life were warmly welcomed to visit and witness the school’s decades of educational achievements.

On June 28 (Saturday), the school was honored to welcome distinguished guests including Cardinal Stephen Chow Sau Yan, S.J., Bishop of Hong Kong; Principal Ms. To Yuk Yin, Chairperson of the Federation of Catholic Religious Schools in Hong Kong; Mr. Wu Yong-fei, Vice Principal of Dongguan Hanlin Experimental School; Rev. Johnson Dhos, SVD, School Supervisor; Rev. Anthonius Reynolds Balubun, SVD, School Manager; Rev. Le, The Hai Peter, representative of the Society of the Divine Word; Ms. Ma Mei Yan, Chairperson of Parent-Teacher Association; and Mr. Lee Chun Man, Vice Chairperson of Sing Yin Alumni Association. As the 55th anniversary is symbolised by the emerald green jubilee, the officiating guests took part in a solemn tree-planting ceremony to express their wishes for the school’s continued growth and vitality—nurturing generations of students to live life to the fullest. The ceremony was followed by student performances including string performance, rope skipping, and dancing, all of which were impressively delivered.

Throughout the Open Day event, a variety of engaging activities were held, including an alumni basketball match, an outdoor concert, and a rock-climbing session, which drew the attention of guests and neighbours alike. Apart from that, sixty-four different school clubs organised interactive booths and workshops at different corners of the school, for example, a mouse dissection experiment by the Biology Club, stargazing by the Astronomy Club, and cookie-making by the Cookery Club — where visitors, be it children or adults, could get a taste of learning and having fun at the same time. Participants could also earn points by joining activities and redeem them for prizes. Guided tours of the school’s history and facilities, such as the “Sing Yin Maze”, allowed guests to appreciate the school’s heritage and development, reflecting not only the academic excellence but also the warm touch of Sing Yin.

Finally, a series of public lectures held in the language theatre were well received by the community. Highlights included a talk on oral history of the school by Former Principal Mr. Kwok But, an introduction to quantum technology by Professor Chow Hoi-fung from the Department of Physics from the University of Hong Kong, a session on demystifying chemistry offered by former teacher, Mr. Lee Pui Keung, a sharing on sleep-enhancing diets and wellness by alumnus and Chinese medicine practitioner Mr. Yip Chun-yin, as well as a talk on calligraphic design and brand building by alumnus Westley Wong. These talks drew a full house and enthusiastic participation.

On June 29 (Sunday), as guests and neighbours reluctantly departed, the 55th Anniversary Open Day came to a perfect close. The number 55 not only marks a new milestone in the school’s journey of nurturing students, but also represents a new beginning in our commitment to the school motto of “Being able to manifest one’s highest morality”. The school sincerely thanks all guests and neighbours for their presence, which added vibrant colors to this memorable celebration.
