Obituary – Dr. Sister May-may Wong

We are deeply saddened by the news that Dr. Sister May-may Wong (黃美美修女博士), one of the founders of the Hong Kong Principals’ Institute, passed away on 20 November 2020.  Dr. Sister Wong was a respectable educator who contributed immensely to education as well as the professional development for teachers and principals in Hong Kong, and she shared a story of her own professional growth in our Institute’s 2016 publication Hong Kong Principals’ Anthology: Stories of Professional Growth of School Principals.  Dr. Sister May-may Wong will surely be missed by many of us in the education community, and may her soul rest in peace.

Cancellation of our Annual Conference

Dear Principals,
With much regret, our Institute has decided to cancel our Annual Conference, rescheduled to be held on 17 February, 2020 (Monday), due to the novel Coronavirus outbreak in Hong Kong, as mass gatherings of this sort are not advised now (the Education Bureau has cancelled or postponed all professional development activities for teachers during the period of class suspension).
Those who have registered for the rescheduled Conference will be contacted individually again about its cancellation. As our Institute relies only on volunteering principals in our administrative work, to minimize the work load related to the cancellation of cheques sent to us for Conference payments, we will destroy them after 29 February 2020 unless a registered participant requests by email (to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. ) on or before 22 February, 2020 for its return (please provide return address). Thank you very much for your understanding.
Yours sincerely,
John K Tan (Dr.)
Chairman

Postponement of Annual Conference cum AGM to 17 Feb 2020

Dear Principals,

Due to the latest developments of the social unrest in Hong Kong, our Institute has decided to postpone our Annual Conference cum AGM 2019, originally to be held on 19 November, 2019, to 17 February, 2020 (Monday). Our overseas keynote speaker Prof. Simon Clarke has confirmed that he can come to Hong Kong and deliver his speech on 17 February, and we are trying our best to confirm the availability of our local keynote speaker Mr. Ricky Wong.

Those who have registered for the event will be asked individually to re-confirm their attendance on the new event date. We apologise for any inconvenience caused by this postponement, and wish our society will become more peaceful when we meet in February.

Yours sincerely,
John K Tan (Dr.)
Chairman

周年研討會暨周年會員大會延期至2020年2月17日舉行

尊敬的校長：

鑑於香港社會動盪情況的最新發展，校長中心決定將原定於2019年11月19日舉行的周年研討會暨周年會員大會延期至2020年2月17日（星期一）舉行。 我們的海外主題演講講者Simon Clarke教授已經確認，他可以於2月17日來香港發表演講。我們正在盡最大努力聯絡我們的本地主題演講講者王維基先生，希望他可以於同日發表演講。

我們將個別聯絡已登記參加是次活動的校長和副校長，請大家確認能否在新的活動日期參加研討會暨會員大會。 對於由此改動造成的不便，校長中心深表歉意，並希望我們在二月見面時，社會將變得更加和平。
