Kaohsiung Municipal Girls’ High kicks off centennial celebrations
2024-11-08
The Kaohsiung Municipal Girls’ Senior High School is celebrating its centennial. Celebrations kicked off on Friday morning with a thrilling performance from the school’s marching band. Kaohsiung Mayor Chen Chi-mai was in attendance, where he reflected that in the era when he attended senior high, it was forbidden to enter female-only campuses, unless it was an anniversary celebration. He joked he was born in the wrong era. Let’s hear what Chen and others had to say.
This marching band, brimming with youthfulness and adorned with smiles, kicks off the 100th anniversary of the Kaohsiung Municipal Girls’ Senior High School.
Chen Chi-mai
Kaohsiung Mayor
When I was studying, I was not allowed in here, maybe only for school anniversary celebrations. So I am very envious of male students who can participate in the second-year camp and drink-swapping days. I was born at the wrong time. If I’d only been born a few years later, I would have had even more opportunities to enter this school.
The school has been established for 100 years and has fostered talents in all kinds of fields. The aunt of Minister Without Portfolio Chen Shih-chung is an alumnus of the school, having attended during the Japanese colonial era. This year she made a special trip to her old school to attend the grand event.

Minister Without Portfolio
This year, as it happens, auntie will turn 100. She was born in the same year as the Kaohsiung Municipal Girls’ Senior High School and has witnessed its entire history until today. So today she wanted to come to her school and I said of course I would accompany her.

Alumnus
I think it’s really good to be young. We didn’t have these activities in earlier times.
The centennial celebrations saw the school’s teachers compete in the creativity stakes. One dressed up as Marilyn Monroe, while others were cartoon characters. Students in the school were also inspired by Chinese puns to dress up in humorous ways.
Student
We are class 20. Twenty and evil spirit are homophones. We’re a bit like a castle with evil spirits, and then a bit like a group of dancing demons.
Participants wrote down their prayers and wishes on cards and put them in a time capsule. Then current and former students from different generations will carve out the next phase of their bright futures, before they meet to open it 30 years later.

2024-11-08
高雄女中創校100週年，規劃許多系列活動，今天上午在樂儀隊精彩表演中，為百年校慶揭開序幕，市長陳其邁也特別到場送上祝福，回想過往就讀雄中的年代，根本無法進入雄女校園，只有校慶到過一次，打趣地說，自己生不逢時。
青春洋溢的樂儀隊，高掛笑容，亮麗登場，為高雄女中百年校慶揭開序幕。

“我唸書的時候，這個雄女是不能進來的，大概只有校慶，所以是很羨慕，有大露營、又有飲料日。當時是生不逢時啦，假如說再晚個幾年，擔任雄中的學生，應該可以有更多的機會來雄女”
雄女創校百年，培育各領域人才，行政院政務委員陳時中的姑媽，是日治時代的校友，今年也特地回校共襄盛舉。

“(姑媽)剛好今年一百歲，跟雄女誕生的時候同一年出生，然後一直見證了整個歷史到今天，所以她今天要來雄女，我就說我一定要陪她來”
[[百歲校友 孫陳錦境]]
“我覺得年輕很好，我們古早沒有這些活動”
百年校慶，雄女老師比創意，有人扮成瑪麗蓮夢露，還有卡通人物，在校生也發揮幽默的諧音梗，搞笑裝扮。

“因為我們班是20班，然後可是它的諧音會是惡靈，我們就有點像是惡靈古堡，然後有點像是群魔亂舞”
把祈願卡放入時空膠囊，新舊跨世代的雄女人，相約30年後打開，共同刻劃下一階段璀璨未來。
