Kowloon-Canton Railway Departmental Reports 九廣鐵路年報 All

67. Education. With the expansion of primary education in Hong Kong many students transferred from the Railway Club School to other schools situated nearer their homes. Consequently, the School provided only 189 places, compared with 432 in 1971-72, in 9 classes ranging from Primary I to Form III. The pupils' attendance was good with an average of 98,2%. Of the 40 candidates who took part in the Secondary School Entrance Examinations, 25 obtained passes in all subjects. Three pupils did particularly well and gained Government allocated free places.

68. Canteen Facilities. The Club's canteen at Hung Hom and the Railway Workshops' canteen at Ho Tung Lau, Sha Tin, provided inexpensive meals for a large number of Railway staff.

P. H. Lam, General Manager, Railway.
