HKBU organised a Gala Dinner at the Grand Hall of Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre on 4 October to celebrate its 60th anniversary. Over 2,000 guests, including several hundreds of alumni from different decades attended.
During the dinner, alumnus Albert Au led the HKBU Christian Choir to sing the HKBU 60th anniversary theme song, which was composed by him with lyrics written by alumnus Cheng Kok-kong early this year. Alumna Becky Lee also sang two renowned classical songs, "The Sound of Music" and "Climb Every Mountain", metaphors for the University’s perseverance in overcoming different hurdles and chasing its dream. By the same spirit, HKBU continues its dedication to becoming the region's premier liberal arts university.
