觀塘最早興建徙置區

專題︰觀塘的老照片系列(3)
雞寮大部份是潮州人居住，今天不少潮州人己離開，但是潮州特色還可以在官塘社區可見到。
物華街的小販區中，有專賣潮汕雜貨的小店，咸酸菜、茨粉丸、薑茨、小田螺，可感受潮州人的氣息，細味他們的味道。
農曆七月十四日是潮州人重要的節日，盂蘭節，他們特別看重鬼神，尊重祖先，雖然官塘市中心沒有廟宇，但還會搭上戲棚，整條裕民坊會放會各式祭品和食品，用以超渡亡魂。
現在很多裕民坊的地舖，還可見他們的足跡，但文化傳統的衰落實在是人為造成，18年前政宣佈重建，在沒有規劃發展安排的情況下，結果重建的消息依舊在區中醞釀。使不少人心灰意冷，無意維修，搬遷到其他地方，現在重建，更加速潮州社區的衰亡。

Did you know the Kwun Tong Church built opposite to the Kwun Tong Resettlement Estate, next to it is a Government
community centre, I always used the Library there after dinner.

I was also brought up in Kwun Tong Resettlement Estate during 1950-1960. I attended those Roof-top Primary School. My primary school is called Chi Ming Primary School, run by Methodist Church. Everyday, I have to walk across a few street and climbing seven storey stairs before reaching the classroom. I understand the above chinese comments which have been causing me
a lot of good and bad memories of the past.

Hi, Tong
Today is Boxing Day, 26 December 2013. Nearly at the end of the year, I would like to recall the past memories in Hong Kong. Chi Ming School is
church run school, (Methodist Church), we learned basic primary school
studies, Chinese, Social Studies and Maths, Physical Education, due to limited space on the roof top of the Resettlement buidling, students have to confine themselves doing runninig, playing games and PE exercises on this small area, even playing socer. My Primary school life had ups and downs. Usually the downs are more than the ups. At one time, I lost interests in school and run away from school. I was disciplined by the school principal.

I lived in Kwun Tong Resettlement Estate from 1961 – 1969. I lived in Block 16, and studied at a Catholic primary school ( Holy
Spirit School) in Block 14. I tried my very best to look for/contact my old classmates about this school . Can any one tell more about the school, please , please. – Eddie Lik To Ho

非常記掛小時候在這裏一齊玩的小朋友，一齊在官塘循道小學讀書的同學仔，1972 畢業後大家各散東西，希望能夠再見番你哋，重拾往曰開心的童年. 最令人難忘的就是那長長的走廊,每到午飯和晩飯的時段就聞到我們偉大的母親在烹煮著香噴噴的餸菜.炎夏的夏天爸爸和兄弟門在走廊行著帆布床睡覺，此情此景真是難以忘記啊!
