In 1966, the School was relocated to the present site.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe school underwent a major renovation and extension in the early 2000s coinciding with the School centenary celebration. \u00a0That was our last major celebration,\u201d Robert further revealed.<\/p>\n<p>It has grown to become one of the top schools in the country, producing countless worthy citizens for the country and all over the world, he added.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe ask why is this possible? In a small town like Sibu 120 years ago? Able to transform so many young lives? It is because of what the School stand for \u2013 prayer and labour, that is our motto to cherish. This motto guided all those before us, all those principals, teachers, students, staff and donors who committed themselves to this cause.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen the students of Sacred Heart stood up and sang the School song, they sang with the spirit of what the school stand for. We now sing with the spirit in honour of all those who came before us.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday, we stand here looking forward hoping to set the example for the generation of students, teachers and principals that are to come. That they too shall one day will do likewise, to live and honour that spirit of the School. That we are worthy to be called students of Sacred Heart,\u201d the senator said.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Sacred Heart School (SHS) board of management chairman Right Reverend Bishop Joseph Hii, who was the guest-of-honour, delivered a speech before launching the year-long celebration.<\/p>\n<p>Earlier on Friday morning, he led a Walk in honour of Brother Albinus and was joined by about 120 former students.<\/p>\n<p>Among those present at the launching ceremony were vice chairman of the school\u2019s board Lau Swee Nguong, treasurer Temenggong Dato Vincent Lau, who is also chairman of school redevelopment committee, school board secretary Dr Gregory Hii Sui Cheng, Sacred Heart School Old Students Association (Shosa) president Yong King Sung, school principal David Teo and Parent-Teacher-Association (PTA) chairman Dr Lau Ngi Chuong.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theborneopost.com\/2021\/01\/03\/year-long-celebration-for-schools-120th-anniversary\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.theborneopost.com\/2021\/01\/03\/year-long-celebration-for-schools-120th-anniversary\/<\/a>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_single_image media=&#8221;83949&#8243; caption=&#8221;yes&#8221; media_lightbox=&#8221;yes&#8221; media_width_percent=&#8221;100&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1609918554022{padding-right: 10% !important;padding-left: 10% !important;}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div class=\"heading cf\">\n<h1 class=\"page-header\">120 ikuti aktiviti berjalan kaki untuk peringati Brother Albinus<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n<p>SIBU:\u00a0Seramai lebih ku-rang 120 bekas pelajar Se-kolah Sacred Heart (SHS) mengikuti aktiviti berjalan kaki sebagai tanda memperingati bekas pengetua sekolah terbabit, Brother Albinus kelmarin.<\/p>\n<p>Aktiviti yang diketuai oleh Pengerusi Lembaga Peng-urusan Sekolah yang juga bekas pelajar SHS Bishop Joseph Hii, bermula dari Jalan Brother Albinus hingga ke sekolah terbabit membabitkan jarak hampir satu kilometer.<\/p>\n<p>Turut serta ialah Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Pembangunan Semula Sekolah Temenggung Dato Vincent Lau, Setiausaha Dr Gregory Hii Sui Cheng, Senator Robert Lau, Presiden Bekas Pelajar SHS (SHOSA) Yong King Sung, Pengetua David Teo dan Pengerusi Persatuan Ibu Bapa dan Guru Dr Lau Ngi Chuong.<\/p>\n<p>Sebelum ini, sebahagian daripada Jalan Oya telah ditukar nama kepada Jalan Brother Albinus.<\/p>\n<p>Setiba di sekolah, peserta disambut oleh kumpulan pancaragam sekolah sebelum menyertai sambutan ulang tahun ke-120 sekolah.<\/p>\n<p>Pengerusi penganjur sam-butan, Robert Lau dalam ucapannya berkata, aktiviti berjalan kaki itu sebagai penghormatan kepada Bro-ther Albinus oleh bekas pelajar sekolah serta mereka yang pernah mengenalinya.\u201cKita amat berterima kasih kepada kerajaan Sarawak kerana bersetuju dengan permohonan kita bagi menukar nama jalan ini,\u201d ujarnya.<\/p>\n<p>Brother Albinus meningga dunia pada 4 Ogos 2013 dan pernah menjadi guru serta pengetua SHS selama 17 tahun.
