The All-Rounder Chuen Yuen Newsletter
Spring Issue 2015-2016 News for Students, by Students WELCOME!
Hello Readers, welcome back to our school newsletter produced by our very own Chuen Yuen students. In this issue, Mr. Cheung Yuk Kui
talks about his long journey at CYC, from his schooldays to his teaching years here. As well as this heart-warming interview our students
talk about their amazing experiences of study tours and other extra-curricular activities that have happened in the school since the last
newsletter. We hope you enjoy this little but amazing work presented by your excellent newsletter team.
See you again – Mr. Cheung Yuk Kui By Sam Tsui 3A
In our school life, we learn many things and go through loads of discovery. There is always something or someone that is unforgettable and meaningful to us. Life can be marvelous and learning is full of miracles. How joyful it is that we can learn together and teach each other regardless of whether we are teachers or students. However, as sure as we are destined to meet, we are also destined to say ‘goodbye'. What we are left with is our remarkable and valuable memory.
In our school there’s been a person, whose smile can melt your heart; a person,
whose heart-felt dedication can awake you and inspire your studying. He can make
a fire spark inside anywhere that
is dark, not only because he's
smart, but because of his big
heart——let me introduce, Mr.
Cheung Yuk Kui, the pure 'Chuen
Yuen Man'.
Life in Chuen Yuen College
Mr. Cheung first came to Chuen Yuen in 1972… to study! Yes,
that’s right! He was a student just like us! Mr. Cheung
remembers that his school life was happy and less stressful than
today. At that time, teachers and students always spent time together. Actually, it's the same as now but our teachers
are getting busier and busier. (Continued on page 2)

So instead of complaining about having too much homework pressure, we should all try to understand teachers and
understand each other.
In 1991, Mr. Cheung started to contribute to his alma mater and work as a teacher. Up to now, he has been serving
in education for 24 years.
Everything changes as time goes by, and so it is with the education at Chuen Yuen, which will keep on improving
just like the development of Hong Kong society.
Reason to take up the responsibility to become a teacher
(Reporter=R and Mr. Cheung= C)
R: Why did you choose to be a teacher?
C: I wanted to share my learning experiences. Eh...I think learning should be done throughout our life. Although
we are at different stages, we can learn different things, so by becoming a teacher, I can share my life and
learning with students.
R: What should we do if difficulties come?
C: Overcome them and share our joy and achievements.
R: A love for teaching is the reason Mr. Cheung chose to serve our school. Yes, learning can be joyful when we
see it as a joyful journey. We go through different stages, and meet different people coming from different
places. We are so different but we are all studying at the same college and we are all learning from each other.
This togetherness is special and everyone should treasure it.
C: I initially expected my students to learn from me but later I found I also learned from them. Learning is usually
much more than what we expect!
Life is busy
Mr. Cheung hasn't listened to pop songs for 24 years because work forms the biggest part of his life. Every
teacher is busy but Mr. Cheung’s motto is “no regrets” as all the teachers do the same.
Life is busy, but learning will never stop.
I will be back
Although Mr. Cheung has already retired, he will still come back to visit us. Maybe he will inspire one of us
to become the next Mr. Cheung.

Advice to students
"Teachers are all sincere and they all try their best to encourage students. I hope everyone can understand
teachers more. Try to manage the time well so that the efforts of teachers won't be wasted. After all, life in
CYC is great!'
"We should be grateful because everything is given to us by God and we should know how to live better.
Don't waste your talent or time, and treasure relationships with the people around you."
See you again
He is a watchful guardian, a shining light in our teenage life. He leads us, helps us and teaches us. He is our
teacher, our pure “Chuen Yuen Man”.
Choi Chong Wing Alex is a student inspired by Mr. Cheung. He says “Mr. Cheung gives me the impression
of being a nice man with a passion for education. He is a good Christian teacher and a good friend. Although
he isn't the teacher who has been teaching here for the longest time, he must be one of the loveliest teachers in
this school. When I was in Form One, my classmates and I angered him one time and we were punished.
However, his anger lasted just a moment but his love will last a lifetime. He pardoned us finally. I don't know
if there is any opportunity for us to have your lesson anymore, but I want to say: thank you so much!”
Farewell, Mr. Cheung.
We will remember everything you've said; we are looking forward to seeing you again.
We’re sure he will drop by and visit us again. Until then, we wish you a well-earned retirement.

Exploring Hong Kong
Our Form 2 students joined heritage tours organized by the History Department on two Saturdays in
