Tsuen Wan Public Ho Chuen Yiu Memorial College Shek Wai Kok Estate Tsuen Wan, NT LIKE many universities which have a Dean's List displaying the names of outstanding students, Tsuen Wan Public Ho Chuen Yiu College has its ''Principal's List''.
The list includes students who have obtained excellent academic results and Grade A in conduct. The ''Best Students'' list is hung on a wall in the school hall where it can be seen by all.
Students who obtained excellent results in public examinations are listed separately on the ''HKCEE Best Results Awardees'' board.
Nearly 70 ''Best Students'' have been recorded on the board since 1977 when the school was founded. In the same period, 24 ''HKCEE Best Results Awardees'' have been listed.
Principal Chan Yan-leung, who has been with the school since it was established, said the lists were to help students set a goal and stimulate their enthusiasm for learning.
''To appear on the lists is a great honour for students who, even after graduation, can return to the school to read them and relive the happy memories. They can even show their name off to their children,'' he said.
