C. S. Kwok, Principal, outlined the
"progress of the institution in the
11 years of Its existence. Founded
in 1929 as a typewriting school at No. 3. Old Balley Street, with only six students, the institution grew by leaps and bounds and had con- tinually to be moving into bigger and better premises to cope with the steadily increasing number of students. This, indeed, was a true "testimony to the very efficient

Keen competition was witnessed and the Macao Wa Kiu Yat Po did extremely well to win the 150 metres free style relay.
