The Wah Yan International Reunion (WYIR), formerly known as the Wah Yan International Conference (IC), is a significant event that brings together Wah Yan alumni from around the globe. Since its inception in 1988, with the theme “Wah Yan Family Around the World,” this biennial gathering has fostered a strong sense of community among Wahyanites.
The WYIR serves four key objectives:
- To provide fellowship opportunities between local and overseas Wahyanites.
- To keep alumni informed about both Wah Yan Colleges in Hong Kong and Kowloon.
- To allow Wah Yan alumni worldwide to better understand each other’s well-being.
- To explore possible improvements in our Global Link networking.
We are excited to announce that the 18th WYIR will take place on December 18-20, 2024, with the theme “Centenary and Beyond” This event is co-organized by the past student associations of both Wah Yan College Kowloon and Wah Yan College Hong Kong, ensuring a rich program filled with engaging discussions, networking opportunities, and a celebration of our shared heritage.
Join us as we continue to strengthen the bonds of friendship and collaboration among Wahyanites, no matter where you are in the world!
