Description
Breeds the Excellent St. John's College was founded in 1912 and it was the first residential hall in the University. We emphasize that "the College is more than a hall of residence". "College" better represent our mission - a College is the gathering together of a body scholars for the formation of human character through sports and cultural activities, and the pursuit of academic excellence by discipline study and open discussions. From its establishment St. John's College shoulders the banner "Breeds the Excellent". Through these many years we have thus nurtured many of Hong Kong's leaders in government, industry and commerce, culture and education.

「其實，媽媽同我都係七樓姊妹係一件好奇妙嘅事情。我地每次討論聖莊都會深深感受到呢個地方嘅變化：以前七樓有無敵大海景，宜家望出去只係得返條罅；以前exchange students唔會成日參與St. John's嘅活動，但宜家唔同國籍嘅莊民已經打成一片；以前聖莊好着重體育嘅發展，宜家大家可以自由發展自己嘅專長。 即使時代變遷，莊民之間嘅感情永遠都唔會變，媽媽話以前inter-hall比賽，特別係樓姊妹有份參賽，就一定會去捧場為佢哋加油打氣。有人生日，就會買或者整一個好大嘅蛋糕同佢慶祝。其實呢啲傳統仍然無變，我地比賽前會寫紙條為大家打氣，會為大家製造驚喜去慶祝生日，呢一份樓姊妹之間嘅感情無論過咗幾多年，依然唔會改變。 我選擇入住聖莊，某程度上都係因為媽媽。佢分享過好多係聖莊生活嘅一點一滴，令我覺得呢個係一個好特別嘅地方，會經歷到好多新嘅體驗，比我作出好多新嘅嘗試。入咗聖莊之後，最難忘嘅事就係interhall比賽同搞活動，大家好齊心向同一個目標努力，一齊分享努力嘅成果。當有班人係你身邊陪你顛，縱使有啲時候好辛苦好攰，但係諗番轉頭就覺得呢啲回憶好甜美。」 7/F 鄧詠瑜 社科四年班 7/F 李淑儀 八零年社科畢業 #HKUINFODAY2017 #FAMILY 香港大學本科入學資訊日2017 日期：二零一七年十一月四日（星期六） 時間：上年九時至下午六時
「由細到大，我同我表姐都因為我細姨嘅影響下，細細個就識聖莊。我表姐四歲嗰時，就由我細姨帶佢第一次去參觀聖莊，而我就喺我五歲嗰年，由我表姐帶我去到聖莊。我哋兩個都聽過細姨講佢多姿多采嘅大學生活，令我哋好耐以前就已經好想入港大同聖莊。我哋亦認識其他St. Johnians，例如我哋兩個睇嘅牙醫都係細姨年代嘅莊民，都俾到我親切又專業嘅感覺。所以，我哋兩個入到港大住hall，當然之選就係聖莊。 我哋三代人係聖莊都各自有好多回憶，要講都真係數之不盡。我細姨講最深刻嘅一次係佢大學三年班時，一班Final Year嘅學生希望可以喺離開前加強聖莊嘅hall spirit， 攪咗一個前所未有嘅Variety Show - "Final Attraction"。由佢地以才藝表演，為聖莊籌款以添置攝錄器材。當晚表演別具創意，甚至有地拖寫大字，跳火圈，男女百米飛人跑樓梯競賽等等，全晚驚喜十足，笑聲不斷。最難忘嘅係完show後莊民都仲要唔捨得離開。 我表姐講過，要佢揀最深刻嘅事就應該係佢Year 2嗰年做辯論隊隊長，雖然佢哋好耐無攞過冠軍，但係好彩嗰年有好多經驗十足嘅current同freshmen，大家好俾心機終於入到Interhall Champfight！準備比賽嘅過程中得到唔同年代嘅舊人大力支持，決賽前又返嚟幫佢地Mock Debate！決賽當日喺開心公園，好多莊民同舊人都嚟到為佢哋打氣，最後成功勝出！嗰一種互相支持嘅溫暖，共同奮鬥嘅熱血，同樣喺其他文化隊伍展現到，令佢地贏埋嗰年既鄭耀宗盃，即係舍際文化比賽總冠軍。 當我入咗聖莊，最開心遇到一班樓姊妹，無論開心定唔開心，都同呢班人一齊，做埋啲好青春好癲嘅事。最難忘嘅係上莊，身為內務副主席，要學識處理各種嘅人際關係，更有不少突發事件，當中學到嘅，實在係非常難得嘅經驗。 雖然我哋細姨宜家去咗上海工作，但係每一次佢返嚟香港，我地三個都會聚埋一齊食宵夜，分享下大家嘅近況之餘，仲會update下聖莊宜家發生咩事。近年聖莊有好明顯嘅轉變，例如收多咗海外學生、學術氣氛變得濃厚咗，有學術導師，同一班好熱心嘅回憶裏情計畫嘅成員。不過，我哋核心價值係永遠都唔會轉變，例如不斷挑戰自己、追求進步、對聖莊嘅忠誠同自豪感。」 7/F 卓諾堯 法律三年班 7/F 李楚芳 九零年社科畢業 10/F 林瑜玉 零九年醫科畢業 #HKUINFODAY2017 #FAMILY 香港大學本科入學資訊日2017 日期：二零一七年十一月四日（星期六） 時間：上年九時至下午六時
