The "Dress Casual Day" organized by the
Community Chest took place on 5th October, 1998. The main purpose of this
function is to give a chance to the working class and students to dress
casually to work or school and raise funds for the Community Chest. Our
college has always been taking part in this activity with great support,
and this year is not an exception.
The day started as usual with students
going to school at usual time, except that they are not in school uniform
but casual clothing. The lower form students showed great excitement for
not wearing school uniform during lessons and they all felt this
interesting. When the lessons started the committee members of the
Students' Union and the Social Service Group went into all classroom to
collect donations from students and teachers. Although students are only
requested to donate $10, most of them showed great generosity and donated
more. This also showed the good heart of us Josephians towards those in
need. The Web Publishing Board talked to a few teachers and student. Both
parties think that such kinds of activities are fun and meaningful. Mr. M.
T. Wong even suggested that this activity shall be held a few more times
throughout the year.
