High Table Dinners Return after a Two-year Hiatus
停辦兩年的高桌晚宴再度舉行 With the epidemic easing earlier this academic year, High Table Dinners, which had been suspended for two years, were held again in November and early December 2021. Over 480 students took part in this unique traditional college event. To comply with social distancing and other preventive measures, after listening to the keynote speeches and watching the student performances at the Auditorium, residents and guests dined and chatted in small groups. HSUHK Governors cum College Patrons Mr Thomas Liang, Dr Tzu-Leung Ho, Dr Patrick Poon and Dr Patrick Fung each joined one of the four dinners, and Dr Patrick Poon moreover served as a guest speaker and delivered a sharing at the event. Dr Derrick Au, Director of the CUHK Centre for Bioethics, was invited to share on how to stay positive in adversity at Lee Yick Hoi Lun Mosaic College’s dinner, while on the evening of S H Ho Wellness College’s dinner, Mr Daniel Chan recounted his journey to becoming a bronze medalist in badminton at the Tokyo Paralympics. Dr Patrick Poon told the students of the Patrick S C Poon Amity College about his philosophy and experiences in contributing to society, and Ms Human Ip, writer and artist, related at Fung Yiu King Evergreen College’s dinner her adventures in and passion for nature. Each of these speeches was pertinent to the theme of the respective RC, and the participating students relished listening to the speakers.
