The wisdom of Mr. Kwei Wah Shan

謹向桂華山中學第一屆畢業生致意 流光如駛，本校創辨迄今已五閱寒暑。第一屆同學修業期滿畢業，擬編製同學錄作為紀念，而索言於余。臨別贈言，余固不能辭也。 本校自籌備創立以來深得本港中華基督教會校監汪彼得及諸先生之積心策劃。開學之後又得黃耀穌校長之領導有方及全校教師之循循善誘，以及各同學之能遵守校規努力求學，致得社會好評。本人亦深感欣慰，於此謹致敬佩之忱！ 各位同學畢業後，或繼續升學，或謀求職業，前途均無限光明，只問是否能不斷努力培養專業知識與才能為未來社會建設作貢獻？ 目前世界各地多忽視人類固有之優良道德。而新達道德之標準，又未能正確樹立，潮流激盪、朱紫混淆，極易誘惑青年趨向墮落之途而不自覺。此則諸君所宜深切注意而應引以為懼者！ 教育之目的，係在培養善良而能有所貢獻於未來社會福利之人才；淘汰危害於未來社會之不良分子，諸君今後之「「自愛愛人」、「「自助助人」亦應以此為準則。茲以五言古體二十句為贈以勗勉畢業同學，兼申奉祝相期之意。其詞曰： 首班慶學成，舊畢新又始，謀職或升學， 鵬程同萬里。求學學為人，儉勤養檢耻。 持身貴忠孝，交友辨賢俚。自愛更愛人， 正人先正己。若處太平日，專業發華滋。 倘逢離亂世，領袖作人師。冬雪春花繼， 大器晚成期。少壯勤自習，時過悔將遲。 居污蓮不染，願君細味之。   一九八二年春歲次壬戌  桂華山 時年八十有七
