Arthur Wong's Note: I tried to identify my schoolmates using their own dialects, such as, Mandarin, Cantonese, Hakka, and Fujianese or by their nicknames. The names of some of my fellow alumni were skipped over. I will provide their names when they become available. Please e-mail your comments to Arthur Wong at arthurw1690@hotmail.com. |

Web Administrator's Note: When students finished Seventh Standard at the Catholic Anglo Chinese School, most of them moved on to St. Anthony's Boys' School. This was the reason why the bulk of the St. Anthony's Boys' School's Basketball Team members came from CACS. Thanks to the the CACS Administration's commitment to physical education, CACS students not only excelled academically but also performed well in track and field, basketball and soccer. The players named below are all CACS alumni. |
