Students share how the school which started as an all girls’ institution, has made an impact on their lives.
SOME of her best memories were created during her time as a secondary school student in Kuen Cheng High School.
Describing her experience in the Independent Chinese school as unforgettable, Leong Wai Yee, 42, reminisced about the past.
“One of my best memories at my second home was the hard work we put in as members of the brass band.
“We spent a lot of time and effort on our practices to ensure we would put on good performances,” said Leong who graduated in 1994.
She always felt a strong connection with her alma mater and decided to become a biology teacher in 2001 after graduating from Taiwan’s National Cheng Kung University.
Fast forward to the present, she is now head of the school’s Academic Department.
“I’m always proud of Kuen Cheng. It is my second home, where my teachers have become my colleagues. It is a strange but nice feeling.
“The school has always emphasised on the Chinese idiom yin shui si yuan. It means being grateful and appreciative towards the blessings that we have,” said the alumni, adding that she has learnt some valuable lessons from the school and its people.
Leong hopes the school will continue moving towards achievements in all aspects, as well as to celebrate more anniversaries in the years ahead.
