羅師盛宴慶重逢 Celebration of our NCE Reunion Gathering at our Northcote Grand Banquet Feasting 聞歌起舞確非同 Which still can never match the commencing of the dancing at the sound of music and merry singing 五十週年情未泯 For fifty years apart have not done the dimming of the loving and reconnecting of fifty years’ of friendship growing 期望指曰再相逢！ But only made stronger the longing of a soon-to-happen future gathering!  (by Polly Chan) (by Leonor Hong) (her 'feeble attempt' to rewrite in English)

羅師畢業確不同， 非單教化衆學童； 五十重逢話當年， 校長、博士出多位； Daisy Lam, Sun Yet Shui  世衛幹事有她份； Chan Fung Fun Chun 律師、獄長亦有人， Joseph Chan, Tennessee Leung 亞運領隊夠威風， Johnny Wu 祖國省委亦題名。 Eddie Chan      (by Paul Choi)

Our Song  “NCE68+50”          v3.1   July 24, 2018                                                                       Some years ago,       We all went to Northcote. Although strangers,  We got along quite well. Two-year lecture(s), And many parties too! Student practice(s),   We sure survived them all … …! Somehow ...               We all graduated! Somehow ...               We became teachers all … …! Decades later,            Thanks to the Internet, Reconnected,             We feel like good old time! While together,         We celebrate our past. Deep in our hearts,    We thank our Lucky Star … …! - - - - -  (bridge) Instrumental   - - - - - Who’d have guess’d,   We entered  N - T – C *, When we came out,     We hail’d from N - C – E** ? Timid and shy,             We quickly got transform’d. Open but firm,             We gladly bond’d for life … …! Someday ...                  We’ll face the world alone. Someday ...                  We’ll never walk alone … …! Let’s raise a glass,       A toast to our friendship! All inspired,                 We pledge for our future! Capture the day,          It’s a wonderful life! Now - forever             We cherish auld lang syne … …! (by NCE68 & John Bosco)
