From Andrew Tang (65), "
What a surprise of seeing John Tsui (63) and Tony Chan (65) while visiting the Michael and Judi Denny Peony Garden at the Oshawa Valley Botanical Gardens (OVBG) on Thursday, the 19th June 2104. Located at 155 Arena Street, it is conveniently situated in close proximity to both the Parkwood Estate and the Oshawa Creek trail.
In 2001, the Canadian Peony Society donated 100 plants from the Wally Gilbert Collection to the project. That contribution led to the official launch of the OVBG. Further donations from peony breeders and suppliers across North America have led to the entire collection flourishing into the largest contemporary collection of peonies in North America. With more than 300 varieties in cultivation, the collection is truly impressive!
Telly Tam writes, " We came to study in WYK in 1974 and this year, 2014 will mark the 40th anniversary for us. We are going to celebrate this reunion at school on Saturday, September 13th. We invited all retired principals, school teachers and alumni to attend this event. Some of our overseas classmates will make a special trip back to Hong Kong for this once in a life time event."
