Several months after its original classroom building was completed, I wrote their Form 1 application test in there.  Everything was new except the vegetation and trees not disturbed by the construction.  It was a joy to receive their acceptance letter but that would have required long commuting from Shum Shui Po.  My appreciation and gratitude remain to this day.
