Sacred Heart school Class of 1973 reunites

SIBU: The secondary school years often mark a pivotal period where friendships evolve into extended family bonds, and reunions become essential for cherishing memories and reliving joyous moments.

From Nov 24 to 26, the Sacred Heart Secondary School Class of 1973 witnessed a heartwarming reunion, bringing together 17 out of 30 former students from across the globe.

Jane Ling, a former student from the Class of 1973, expressed her excitement and gratitude for this reunion.

“I’m very grateful to God that our classmates are able to meet again after 50 years,” she exclaimed.

Throughout the reunion, old friends created memorable and meaningful moments by relishing exotic Fuzhou food and reminiscing about the past.

The highlight of the event was the visit to their alma mater, Sacred Heart Secondary School, where they were welcomed by a lion dance and a Scottish bagpipe band parade organised by the school’s current students.
