On 24 November, our school organised the Thanksgiving Programme, an annual event for all Maryknollers. It was an occasion for us to express gratitude towards all school members, and our loved ones.

This year, the Student Association prepared a short video featuring teachers and students who shared their special ways of celebrating Thanksgiving, the significance of the holiday to them, and their heartfelt sentiments towards those they miss, particularly friends who have left Hong Kong. Our Principal, Ms Chan, also enlightened us about how having a grateful heart not only helps us cultivate the virtue of gratitude, but is also scientifically proven to bring us happiness.

Before the Thanksgiving Programme came to an end, student representatives took the initiative to show appreciation to our supervisors, alumnae, and all staff members with custom-made tote bags, each uniquely and specially designed by our students.
