It was a hot and sunny day, and Megan was having a PE lesson. “Even ants would rather jump into a pool of water instead of working in such scorching weather. I don’t want to run. Maybe I should hide some place and take a rest.” Megan thought to herself.
She ran into the staircase near the school hall, where she saw a door with a sign marked ‘FORBIDDEN’.
“I have been studying in this school for five years and I hadn’t seen this door before. Wait...I’m just finding a place to hide. As this place is forbidden, normally people won’t go in, and therefore it should be the safest place to hide!” Then Megan opened the door and went in.
There was a tunnel inside the room. Megan continued walking; she saw the colour of the sky change from dark brown to blue, then to white, and this pattern kept repeating.” It’s such a strange place.” Megan said. Suddenly, the world began to turn and twirl. After a few turns, a door looking exactly like the one she came through appeared at the end of the tunnel. She ran up and opened it and went through, yet, she didn’t know she was time travelling.
After getting out of the room, she saw that the whole school had changed. From a grand high-tech school, to a dilapidated place.
“Hey! Why are you still here? You should be studying in the classroom now! Also, why are you wearing casual wear to school? Go and get your PE clothing and get changed now. I don’t want you to be punished by the discipline teacher. I don’t want you to get into trouble!” a girl shouted. Megan looked at her clothing, she was wearing a different school uniform but with the same school logo.
“Okay. Just give me some time to make things clear. What year is it now?” replied Megan.
“It’s 1964. Is there something wrong with you? You’re so strange. You should have gone to class by now, but you didn’t” the girl replied.
“Alright. It’s obvious I don’t belong to this place, not in this era. I come from 2014 and the school campus is completely different from now. I want to explore the campus, can I?” Megan asked, the girl was shocked but still nodded and left her on her own.
The school campus was totally different without the D Hall and the new classroom building. A soccer pitch was located where the D Hall was later built. The buildings were lower and there was more greenery around the school. There was even an observatory located on the campus.
“Our school must have been updated since it opened.” Megan thought to herself.
The light above the door which Megan had time-travelled through suddenly was illuminated, now sparkling and producing a whizzing sound. Megan reckoned it was a sign calling her back, therefore she ran to the door and went through it once again. Inside the door there was a tunnel, which looked exactly the same as the one she had first gone through. It turned and swirled. The sky kept changing colour, and finally she found a way to leave 1964.
“That place was so much fun! I’d love to ask my best friends to come along with me next time!” Megan exclaimed.
“Well Megan, I’m afraid your wish cannot be granted.” A man’s voice could be heard in the background. Megan knew she was in trouble and didn’t have the courage to look up. She only saw a man who was slightly chubby standing in front of her.
“You mustn’t go into that room ever again.” After hearing this, Meghan found herself back at the staircase near the school hall, but the door with the sign marked ‘FORBIDDEN’ was no longer there. She no longer dared to mention about this incident to anyone, as she knew no one would believe her.

I have been studying in Fanling Lutheran Secondary School for three years and I have a lot of unforgettable memories. Among all of them, my most impressive memory is of our former principal Mr. Simon Chan.
Last year, after the first exam, our English teacher was not satisfied when he found out our English examination results, he thought the results were unacceptable. Therefore, our Principal, Mr. Chan, came to our classroom and studied with us during the English lessons.
During the lesson, he walked around and helped the students when they didn’t understand the material. He also taught us how to avoid some common spelling, grammatical and pronunciation mistakes that we usually make.
After the lessons, he spent his lunch time helping us improve our class learning atmosphere, because he knew we were bad at English simply because we didn’t work hard enough.
I talked to him frequently when he was still in the school about a wide range of subjects, and I felt happy because I had found an excellent partner to discuss some social issues, or the future of Hong Kong. He helped improve my English a lot and for this I should thank him. The positive result of his effort was finally revealed in our exam results.
I admire Mr. Chan because he not only taught me some useful exam skills but also some interesting English sayings and proverbs. His retirement was a loss for our school but fortunately I can still meet him at the alumni banquets. He will always be my favorite principal and I love him!
There is a special occasion coming up,
It is our school’s 50th anniversary.
Believe me, it’s something cool and rare,
It’s even better than receiving a teddy bear!
There is Christmas and Halloween, and Valentine’s Day too,
It all carries the memories of me and you.
It comes by once a year,
Bringing everyone so close and so near.
FLSS is a great place for you and me,
There are many things for us to discover and see!
There are flowers, plants and trees,
It’s a place where you can feel the gentle breeze.
There are a few teachers I HAVE to mention,
Who come into our classroom and immediately steal my attention.
Kind and nice and super sexy,
Wearing heels and drinking Pepsi.
FLSS is like the Sun,
Bringing the joy and lots of fun!
Almost 50 years of great success,
Let’s work hard and do our best!
That’s all I have to say,
It’s our school’s birthday.
Hip hip hooray!
