Written by We receive a message from Grace Tsang on May 25, 2021 saying that Ho sir 何敬謙老師在澳洲柏斯Perth逝世。
| Jeff Chan | The memories of Ho Sir sharing his knowledge and wisdom while we were growing up will remain forever in our hearts. |
| Patience Lyons | I will always remember Mr. Ho. May Mr. Ho Rest In Peace. Condolences to the family. |
| Wong Tak Kwong | May our respectful Ho sir rest in peace, and my condolences to his family. |
| Chau Hoi Kit | 永遠懷念💖尊敬的何老師！記憶中他還是第一代ICAC工作人員！ |
| Joyce Jern | Mr Ho will be greatly missed but his kindness and gentle spirit will be with us forever! |
| Angela Or | 想何Sir 在澳洲生活很好；還記得Dr Cheng 很欣賞他，在早會時說他勤力有幹勁（類似的話😅） |
| Clara Ho | RIP |
| May Kwok | RIP 永遠懷念！ |
| Mary Lau | RIP 永遠懷念！ |
| Robert Chu | 他教什麼呢？我不認出他。 |
| Adrian Hung | 教economic? |
| Chau Hoi Kit | EPA |
| Tak Kwong Wong | 對，是EPA，我們當時叫 Economic and Public Affairs. 不過我記得當時文科 EPA 和地理是蕭sir所教，何老師可能是教理科班，不知對否? 這已是半世紀之前的事我已記不清楚了。老實說我當時對 EPA 也不大感興趣，但相反我兒子是在密芝根大學主修經濟畢業，這大學也是以經濟在世界出名。 |
| Robert Chu | 我可能也算是那班对EPA 沒有興趣。畢竟，何老師留下許多美好回憶。事實上，每位老師也对你我影響很大。感恩！ |
| Jeff Chan | I can’t agree with you more, Robert. |
| Chow Ho Wai | 如果我沒有記錯，何老師應該是教完我們F3(?) 後就離開了大成中學的。 |
| Jeff Chan | I believe you are correct !He taught us the basic understanding of the significance of economic in our society. |
| Adrian Hung | My narrow escape
Before our exam in School, boys had to take the chairs from the classroom to the Hall while girls took the chairs. We were warned not to run along the corridors in school and there would be penalty for those against the rule. At Form 2, after I took the first table to the Hall, I ran along the corridor to go back to the classroom to pick up the second table. Unfortunately Ho sir came out from a classroom suddenly and I hit his hand. He rubbed his hand and ordered me to see him at the hall after moving the second table. I knew I was in trouble and likely to be punished with a minor or major demerit. When I finished my task, I went to see Ho sir at the Hall with my head down and tears on my eyes. I said “Sorry Ho sir, please give me a second chance”. He said, “If I punish you with demerit, you won’t have the mood to prepare for the exam. Go home and study hard!”. I said, “Thank you very much Ho sir”. Ho sir was really kind and considerate! |
| Irene Ko | I also have a story to share: At form 1 or 2, he once drove me home (not feeling well), accompanied by Miss Chan. I am not sure if the car belonged to him or the school. |
| Simon Fan | So much more caring than just calling a taxi for you. |
| Irene Ko | 哈哈!佢喺教務主任。Indeed. |
| Jeff Chan | I recall I was appointed 班長by 班主任 Yeung Sir in Form 3B. After all these years I don’t know why…… |
| Simon Fan | Yeung Sir repeated me in Form 1, and I know why. 😝 |
| Grace Tsang | 他想見你多啲？ |
| Simon Fan | 😯😆 |
| Jeff Chan | Right on !!! |
| Cheung Wan Loi Roni | 大部份留班的都是男仔（包括我），我想男仔較貪玩，懶讀書。☺ |
| Simon Fan | 🤣😂 很敬佩你顧家👍👍 |
| Robert Chu | I remember him and he has an iron face (the one in the right). His brain is like a computer with unlimited memories , cashe, too. Ha! Ha! What has happened to him? |
| Chau Hoi Kit | Mr Ching told me that one of his students in his native place in China saved him from being caught by the Japanese troop. |
| Jeff Chan | Yes. like to know as well. He was the complete opposite of Mr. Yim Tse Choi who was the other Chinese history teacher who went by the book only. He reprimanded me on many occasions for having long hairs by standing beside the teachers office entrance door for 30 minutes or so… those memories linger…. |
| Tak Kwong Wong | From my recollection both Ching sir and Yim sir had passed away many years ago. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong. |
| Jeff Chan | All things must pass, memories forever remain. |
| Joyce Jern | Mr Ching was very good at stimulating students’ learning interest. Mr Yim was capable to drift many students into a dreamy afternoon. Anyhow, under Mr Yim’s guidance, 10 of us got distinction (A) in Chinese Language & Literature at the HK Cert of Education 會考 1971. |
| Jeff Chan | I must admit I was more interested in after school activities than studying for exams….
I recall Mr. Yau Kin Ming had distinct interest in classical music. |
| Robert Chu | What did the above teach as well as his name? |
| Jeff Chan | I couldn’t remember exactly the subject he taught…. perhaps other classmates might remember….?? |
| Adrian Hung | Mr Yeung taught Chinese and Chinese History? |
| Chau Hoi Kit | And also taught F.2 boys handcrafts, such as baskets! |
| Cheung Wan Loi Roni | F.1- F.3 Chinese. Mr. Yim taught F.4 – F.5 Chinese. |
| Robert Chu | We were really blessed with all the good teachers. |
| Jeff Chan | They turned our innocent mind into thinking like a lawyer. |
| Chow Ho Wai | Not exactly, Mr. Yim taught us F3 Chinese when I was in F3B class. |
