This past week has been a truly momentous occasion for us at Wycombe Abbey, as we celebrated our close ties with Wycombe Abbey School Hong Kong. Our community came together in celebration, reflection, and shared pride through a series of special events, including the formal opening of the Senior School and a memorable gala dinner.
On Tuesday, 21 October 2025, we proudly marked the official opening of the Senior School in Hong Kong, a landmark event signifying a bold new chapter in our commitment to providing world-class UK education abroad. We were honoured to be joined by distinguished guests, including our senior leaders, Patrick Sherrington and Diana Rose, along with representatives from the British Consulate in Hong Kong. The ceremony featured inspiring speeches, a commemorative plaque unveiling, and traditional elements such as the ceremonial cutting of the roast pig, culminating in a vibrant lion dance performance that captured the essence of Wycombe Abbey’s culture.
The celebrations continued on Wednesday 22 October with a gala dinner that brought together an extended community of leaders, supporters, and friends from around the world. The evening beautifully reflected the strength of our global community, featuring speeches from Headmaster Rob Fox and other esteemed guests, which offered reflections on our collaborative journey and a bold vision for the school’s future. The atmosphere was filled with warmth and purpose as attendees celebrated the school’s achievements and those who have shaped its path.
Throughout the week, our leadership team visited both the Senior and Prep School campuses, engaging with pupils and teachers, observing lessons, and discussing future collaborations. Their feedback praised the pupils’ confidence and curiosity, highlighting the vibrant culture at Wycombe Abbey. We were also pleased to be included in exclusive interviews to capture reflections on the visit, which we look forward to sharing soon.
As the week drew to a close, Headmaster Rob Fox reflected on the sense of community and achievement that permeated the celebrations. He noted the importance of strong relationships within the school community, expressing gratitude for the dedicated teachers and engaged parents who ensure every student thrives. This week of celebration has reminded us how collaboration, vision, and shared purpose can lead to extraordinary accomplishments as we look ahead to the next chapter of Wycombe Abbey School Hong Kong.
