Seventy years is a spectacular milestone for the school—it has been over six years since my graduation, yet 70 years of standing firm is the perfect time for reminiscence.

Looking back, the schools and teachers had been delightfully supportive of my interests and strengths. I recall being increasingly interested in music, and I was given multiple opportunities to participate in competitions where I could demonstrate my skill and sing in front of a crowd for the first time in my life during my graduation ceremony. I was also a book-obsessed kid, constantly engrossing myself in stories I found. I’m glad teachers supported me in writing my own stories as it mightily boosted my confidence to write my video game lore as I grew up.

I am most certainly grateful for every teacher who has taken part in my education, as I was not the most obedient child. As a generally hyperactive child, my teachers have taught me to behave myself and take responsibility for my tasks. It was definitely no easy feat for my teachers to continue the class while I was crawling through desks and looking for one specific missing item. Still, as I grew, I took their advice to heart and am no longer the scraggy kid with dirt caking my knees. It is a shame that I cannot correctly credit every teacher I’ve met here. Still, each of them that taught me has made at least a small impact on my life. I am now a determined student ready to take my next steps in my foundation year in Newcastle College.

Getting ready for the new academic year, it suddenly hits me that I am already in secondary 6 and graduated from HTPS five years ago. It’s hard to believe that so much time has passed; I still vividly remember my days in HTPS! As I head into the last year in St Stephen’s College, I start thinking about what it was like in my last two years of primary school.

I entered HTPS as a new primary 5 student along with my younger brother who was entering primary 2 in 2015. Back then, I was the girl with good grades and my brother was the boy who would give everyone headaches. Despite being siblings, no one ever pressured my brother to be like me. It is a blessing that we could flourish in our ways in HTPS.

The person I would thank the most is Ms. Fu. I didn’t know what to expect on the new student’s orientation day. After the day, what stuck with me the most was when Ms. Fu told me she was sure I could make new friends. Her words gave me the confidence to play with my schoolmates in the new environment, enriching my primary school life. At the same time, Ms. Fu’s care also nurtured me to become a better person. I cannot imagine my life in HTPS without Ms. Fu.

Looking back, a student’s happiness simply stems from the love and support from teachers. I am immensely grateful for being able to find this happiness at HTPS.

Huang Helene Heling (2017 graduate)

On September 1, 2009, I formally began my six-year journey at Holy Trinity Primary School. Throughout the time, I had been nurtured in the embrace of love and happiness. I had been taught to be conscientious, perseverant and to always aim high. I was also given various opportunities, such as being selected as class monitress, prefect and school representative in the Kowloon City District Outstanding Student Award. Such valuable experiences have fostered my growth from a timid little girl into a more proactive and confident person. While grateful to all my teachers for their guidance and inspiration, I would like to express my special thanks to Miss Law and Miss Fu for their patience, encouragement and unwavering support.

當我執筆寫下這段文字的時候，發現今天恰逢便是九月一日，實在是不由得我不相信，世間萬物在冥冥之中是真的有天意。對於以前的我或者很多師弟妹來説，談起這個日子，想必腦海中想到的，或許是那種既緊張又期待開學的心情；而對於現在的我來説，這個日子也正正是標誌著我離開校園生活，踏入社會工作的一週年。

回想過去十餘年的校園生涯，小學、中學和大學的體驗實在是截然不同。如果用咖啡來形容中學的生活，那是苦澀而帶有淡淡的芳香；如果用冰可樂來形容大學的生活，那是一種沁人心脾的自由和清爽。而如果讓我形容小學的生活，我會說那就是水，那是一種清澈而純淨的甘甜。所有的飲料都離不開水，也正如我的母校 — 聖三一堂小學於我一生的地位，因為小學，就是我人生的基礎，時至今日我一生中的一切，無論是學業成績，抑或是人格品行，甚至於今時今日的職業地位等等，都可謂是母校所給予我的。沒有母校優質的資源，辛勤的老師的栽培，也沒有今天的我。

也許是踏入社會以後，我更深知母校的温馨。小時候，母校是我眼中的一個快樂的樂園；長大後，母校是我人生的一座青春的殿堂；但在未來一生，母校會是我心中一道永遠的風景。七十年的風雨兼程，造就精英無數，七十年的飽經滄桑，培育桃李滿園。飲水思源，不忘母校培育之恩。

在此衷心祝願母校 — 聖三一堂小學更展宏圖，再譜華章！

母校七十歲生日快樂！
