He not only encouraged graduates to strive diligently but also emphasised the importance of staying healthy and enjoying the process,  “Wishing you all a brilliant future, and may you craft a magnificent life with your own hands.”

This year’s valedictorian is Miss Harriet Cheung Tsoi-tong from Department of History. Speaking on behalf of the class of 2023, Harriet expressed gratitude to everyone who has been part of their four-year journey, including Chung Chi teachers and staff, friends, families and the graduates themselves.
