非常遗憾没能早些写信问候，一直都很敬佩热爱慈善教育事业的吴校长。 RIP.

You’ll always remain in my heart.

RIP - thanks for putting up a fight to keep the school's EMI status in 1998! I can never forget the way you stood on the stage and read out the proclamations of the day. Quoting 排長: 學校在其領導下，令長天逐步成為知名的學府。

我很難接受你已經離去

我永遠記得當我第一日返學時, 你站在 office 外面望著操場的樣子. 你的氣場正告訴我長天是一所偉大的中學, 亦提醒了我要努力在這所名校好好學習. 感謝你的英名領導, 帶領長天有今日的榮譽, 亦同時帶領了我的成長. 雖然我成就不算突出, 但沒有你沒有長天, 就難以有今天的我. 我衷心的感謝你.

我很難以文字表達我對你的尊敬. 對我來說, 你永遠是一位 legend. 我為有幸在你在任時期就讀長天感到驕傲.

願你在天國安息

Nat Chan, Class of 2005 (7C)

You just show me half of your face, when
you take a picture of yourself , wearing the scarf I knitted for you, in a hurry. That's you, fun loving , as always. We used to argue with one another, for reasons unknown and forgotten, as always. Will look forward to chatting with you, teasing one another, in present tense , again, when our pathway crosses, as always.

Dearest Ben,
Thank you for being my teacher and best friend. I would rather we never say goodbye to you. Deep in my heart, I miss you so much. RIP.
还记得你经常会给我发送一些好玩的视频或者图片，让我在疲惫的工作中得到一些放松。还记得你经常会问候我的家人，让他们感收到来自远方朋友的关怀。还记得你到厦门来看我们，我们一起走走吃喝和唱歌。还记得你带我到贵州参加Ettp，让我学习和成长。还记得你带我们爬上山顶看风景，还记得你带我们走向海边看潮汐……太多的情景和过往历历在目。我最后悔的是在那一段没有收到你的微信的几个月里，我竟然没有问你，你为什么不发了？如果当时问了，我就会陪着你共度难关，可是我却没有问，我竟然不知道你在和病魔做斗争。没有任何对你的关心和问候，让我自责不已。现在，你终于解脱病魔的折腾，在天堂笑着，但是我们却很伤心，因为我们多想你就还在身边！
Yours,
Lizzy

纪念我的好友，忘年交Ben(Benedict Ng) 吴良川先生: Ben,祖籍福建晋江安海，幼年随父母前往香港，毕业于香港大学，生前是香港长沙湾英文中学的老师，担任校长(25年)直到退休。2001年退休后开始了他全新的生活，积极参与，发动和组织支援大陆教育相对贫困地区的公益活动。从个人到学校义务任教开始，逐步发展到资助办校，资助困难学生，组织教师团队,利用暑假时间到大陆多地义务培训英语老师，足迹遍及贵州，云南，湖南，陕西，山西，黑龙江，广东，等当中的十几个县市，帮助他们提高业务和自身的语言能力。他为人积极向上，乐观幽默，乐行好施。他退休后做义工的第一个站点就是厦门，我们相识于厦门并从此成了挚友。他常说厦门是他的第二故乡。认识他的人多称他吴校长，同行的都叫他Ben，他戏称自己是Ben(笨)老师，英语读成中文拼音的发音。常调侃说自己是VIP(Very Insignificant Potato)而不是Very Important Person.临终前还在关心困难学生的资助问题。他不图名利，鄙视权贵。他的一生，是为教育做奉献的一生，是我们学习的楷模。
–––厦门陈钢强

Miss Ben very much. He is my VIP( Very Important Person). I'm so sad for his passing away. But he will remain in my heart forever. Pray for Ben.
当初得知Ben离世的消息，我整个人都错愕了。明明那么健康硬朗的人，一下子病得这么严重，每每想到他生病后有多么的辛苦，总觉得心很痛。说好了疫情过后要去见他们的，他却缺席了，心里很不是滋味。这段时间，总是想起我的干外公和Ben。在我从事教育的这条路上，他们深深地影响着我。耳边响起干外公说的“教师是人类灵魂的工程师”，自己在心里会想着努力做一个好教师；脑海里浮现ETTP 每一位成员认真诚恳备课和上课的画面，致力于教育公益事业、身体力行的他们震撼了我，他们付出了很多心血，在很多人的心里种下了希望的种子，年复一年，他们播下的种子已长成一片森林了，教育因他们而充满希望。
这辈子都难以忘记Ben。他是我见过的“最年轻”的退休校长。第一次见他的时候，谁能想到这么一个活力满满、笑容满面、健步如飞的导师已经快80岁了。岁月在流逝，少年心不变。跟他在一起学习、共事、聊天、玩耍，都会被他做人的洒脱、幽默和真诚，对教育的热忱和认真所折服。我从我姨那里学到了教育的方法和态度，在Ben这里建立了我对教育的信念。他无私奉献的精神深深感动了我，他之于我，亦师亦友。
因为他们，我对教育改观了，会不由自主地向他们靠近，从此，对英语的喜欢加深了好几分，对教育的喜欢多了好几分。因为喜欢，我坚持到现在，希望做好教育。
希望悲伤化为力量，我们继续延续Ben's Spirit和ETTP Spirit。
向Ben致敬，愿他安息。

一條漢子(記與吳校長二三事)

和吳校長相處近三十年，給我的感覺是處事明快，個性豪邁，學校在其領導下，令長天逐步成為知名的學府。
吳校長一直有参加籃球和長跑，他和我既是隊友又是競爭者，那年教師籃球隊常常和友校作賽，還遠征聖文德、林護、地利亞等學校，可惜在一次球賽嚴重傷腳後，退出了籃球場，傷愈後，吳校長積極参加長跑賽事，每年的教師長跑，渣打馬拉松十公里是常客，記得一次和吳校長及同學参加長跑，我校同學得到隊際冠、亞軍，校長非常開心請我食飯，知我是酒客，要和我飲高樑，幸好！平分秋色，安全回家，至於長跑勝負，當然吳校長贏了，日後校長可以告訴子孫曾赢過長天長跑教父，若說最難忘，應是新機場渣打馬拉松十公里，那天比賽在滂沱大雨，天色昏暗之中，內心擔憂之際，猛見校長雖然疲痺卻仍勇敢大步衝向終點，吳校長，你好嘢！
吳校長退休後，有次回校碰面交談，講述他在國內興學，得知他在內地各處貧困地區辦學，還領導長天教師教內地教師及學生英語，為推開國門，走遍大江南北，這種聖賢般的教育心，令人肅然起敬，話說有些學校要招呼他住酒店，他一律拒絕，自己租住廉價的，他說:不為什麼，呀叔鍾意！我好欣賞「呀叔鍾意」四個字，那是大俠呀！
有幸上年和吳校長一齊慶祝生日會，師生其樂融融，校友會送了一座水晶長天校舍給吳校長，校長很高興，席間為我們高歌一曲「愛拼才會贏」，還聲情並茂解說歌詞內容。
吳校長，多謝你！我們知道了愛拼才會赢的奮鬥，我們會銘記你為教育作出的示範，更明白你心繫長天。

排長(梁柏林老師)

2021年2月17日晚上，傳來噩耗，深受愛戴的吳良川校長蒙主寵召，因病與世長辭。所有長天師生校友無不痛惜長天及教育界失去翹楚。

吳校長畢生為教育奉獻，由1976年至2000年擔任長天校長，歷時24年，是長天最長任期校長。退休後，退而不休，18年來帶同各地老師義工到國內培育英文老師，從不間斷。 2018年知悉長天全人教育基金成立，即時答允擔任榮譽顧問，為基金會出謀獻策，貢獻良多。

我們懷念去年11月14日與你共渡80大壽晚宴，當晚歡樂氣氛還歷歷在目，想不到當天晚宴成為吳校長與大家最後的聚會……………

我們將永遠懷念吳校長，希望吳校長在天家主懷安息。我們也永遠記著吳校長為長天所寫的校歌，歌詞是多麼優美、動人，卻不失長天自強不息的氣勢！我們感激你為長天、為教育的無私奉獻 !

長天全人教育基金主席方西河

I am honoured to have met such a selfless, philanthropic person who came into my life 10 years ago when I joined ETTP. Ben taught me so much and guided me every step to finding my passion for teaching, charity work and education. I will never forget our precious moments together in China, and in particular our 梁祝 performance in 2017 in Majiang, Guizhou. Thinking of you every single day - thank you once again for everything, and may you rest easy. Marco x

2006到2014年夏天我都从纽约飞往香港与你和其他来自香港，中国大陆，美国，加拿大，英国，澳洲， 纽西兰，星加坡等地的在职， 退休教师， 及大学生组成的教师队伍在贵州，山西，陕西培训当地的英语教师， 那9个夏天, 是我教学最愉快的经验。我们把新进的英语教学方法介绍给中国大陆教师，用唱歌，电影学英语，用小组讨论等多种方式提高口语能力。良川崇高的服务精神，深深感动了我。你的高度组织能力，灵活教学方法，亲 和力。。。给了我说不尽的开心愉快，我会有很长时间怀念你。你做了很多有意义的工作，你现在面带笑容安息吧！卢警端敬上

From Trevor Higginbottom:

‘ I was privileged to know Mr Ben Ng for over 20 years, first when I regularly visited his school, then in association with the NETs scheme and finally when collaborating with him in his charity work in Guizhou Province in China. I always found him to be a truly outstanding professional person and a wonderful human being . The school, it’s pupils, staff and parents were indeed fortunate to have such an inspiring Principal for so many years . He will be sorely missed..........

Trevor Higginbottom, Retired Member of Her Majesty’s Inspectorate for England and Wales . ‘

He taught me not only English, he taught me life. For over fifty years, we enjoyed the true friendship. He's not gone, he lives in my heart.

A man of vision
he was an
avid professional who brought a wave o f fresh air to pedagogy.

Principal Mui

Mr Ng gave us wonderful opportunities and support when we were young teachers, and as a result of his commitment to developing a thriving learning community, we have very fond memories of working in CSWCCS. His later work in China is a great inspiration to us all, and his achievements will live on long into the future. We remember him with much affection and gratitude.

Dear Principal NG,
You were truly a respectful and exemplary educator whose some-sixty-year wholehearted dedication to education has positively nurtured and inspired tens of thousand students, particularly those who might otherwise have been deprived of it.
Your 1970-75 student.

Recall back my form 3 English class teacher, mr Ng in 1966-67.
He is a great man. Teaching us with patience.
God bless him

Dear Principal NG,
Thanks for everything, we will continue and extend your spirits in the future. I'm blessed to meet you at some point of time at CSWCSS.
Rest in peace.... 

Wong Siu Kin 2001 7C

Proud of a man who has dedicated his whole life in educating the next generation. Thanks you.

Dearest Mr Ng,

On behalf of your colleagues and students from the Whatsapp group of St. Peter's Secondary School from 1975-1976, we surely have missed our greatest life mentor and we will remember you always. Rest in peace!

Recalling the past, we will always remember. We will miss you.

We miss you forever! You are surely the one ironed in our memory. Your student of 1988 HKCEE, class 5B, Lai Kin Chung Kenneth

Principal Ng’s leadership and contribution to CSWCSS’ achievements are never replaceable

Thanks for your life education and being a model of us.
Rest in Peace.

To our honourable principal Mr. NG,

I was one of the naughty boys who always turn up late to school. This brought a chance for my parents to see you in person.

All we can remember you are a gentle, caring and kind-hearted principal. You were the linchpin of the school, and will remain in our heart forever. 

Rest in peace. 

A great and humble man who walked the talk. RIP

Forever missed.

Thanks for everything. RIP.
1991 5E Class

Thanks Principle, a great man and mind that inspire us all. Rest in peace!

Thanks Principal Ng, RIP. We are all remember you.
