My grandma went to St. Joseph Anglo-Chinese Primary School in @HongKong back in the 60s. She always talks about the old stone building, the huge banyan tree in the courtyard, and how strict the nuns… more

That's awesome your grandma went to St. Joseph's! The old stone buildings in Hong Kong schools always have such character. I don't know any specific traditions or rivalries, unfortunately.

Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.

Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
