Community Events
The picture shows some of the WYK alumni and spouses who attended Cathay Ball 2018 hosted by Mon Sheong Foundation on Saturday November 10 at Metro Convention Centre South Building. The Foundation is a charity organization dedicated to the promotion of Chinese culture, heritage, language, and philosophy by caring for the elderly, encouraging the young, and providing programs and services to meet the needs of our communities. A number of WYKAAO members and spouses have been volunteering their time and skills at the organization for many years.
2018 Terry Fox Run was held on Sunday September 16, a weather-perfect day for outdoor activities. Team WYKAAO once again participated at the Markham-Unionville run site, raising over $4500 for a good cause. A number of alumni and family members came to show their support.

It was Mr C K Wong who urged the head teacher of Fuk Wing St Government Primary School to start a scout group. She OKed it and it came into being. Three Wah Yan boys Thomas Tam, Yam Kai Sun 任啓新, and I joined as leaders., For me and Thomas it was a return to the fold of Scouting like the lost sheep. To me personally, it was a turning point in my life. Its principles and ways have become mine in everything I did and do.
Mr Wong had just passed away at the age of 101!
