Dear Lasallians

It is with sadness that the we learnt of the passing away of a former teacher of the College, Mr. Wong Mo Poon (黃務本). Mr. Wong left us on April 27, 2002 at the age of 86. Mr. Wong was a teacher at La Salle College between 1952 and 1963, thus spending time in the College primarily in our Perth Street compound. He mainly taught science to the lower forms. Just to help you recall and with no disrespect intended, his nickname during his days in La Salle was “大眼妹”.
