Hong Kong Snapshot (89) – story of Sun Yat-sen, founding father of modern China, starts! 香港隨拍 (89) 孫中山在香港的故事開始了!
In the previous twenty-five posts of the “Hong Kong Snapshot” series, we talked about different places of HK in the angle of history. We talked about the history of the British getting the HK Island, Kowloon and the New Territories. The history influenced HK a lot, but only little to the world. In the history of HK, we had a person, who changed China, and even the history of the World. He is Sun Yat-sen
Sun Yat-sen was the founding father of modern China and brought China to the modern stage which changed the world. Do you know that Hong Kong is the most important place that lead him to the road of the revolution of China? In the coming posts, I will talk about the footsteps of Sun in HK.
在之前的二十多篇香港隨拍,我們以歷史的角度,介紹了香港的多個地方,當中主要講述了英國得到香港的香港島、九龍半島及新界的經過。不過,這些歷史主要都發生在香港,對世界的影響不是很大。而其實,在香港的歷史出,曾經出現了一個人,改變了整個中國,以至世界的歷史,他是孫中山。
孫中山是中國革命之父,帶領中國走到現代,影響世界,而原來,引領著他走進革命之路,最重要的地方就是香港。未來數篇,就讓我們看看孫中山在香港的足迹。
Let us walk up the hill from Sai Wan, HK Island. We found a school called the “Bonham Road Government Primary School”. 100 years ago, the address is the former Diocesan School and Orphanage, is the first school that Sun studied in HK.
在現今香港的西環一帶,一直往山上走,見找到一間「般含道官立小學」,這小學看似平平無奇,但這校舍卻大有歷史,它的前身是拔萃書室,是孫中山第一次來到香港時就讀的學校。
Sun Yat-sen was born in the village of Cuihang in GuangZhau of China. The birth year was 1966. Sun lived in a poor family and with the support of his elder brother, Sun moved to Honolulu in Hawaii to further studied. In Honolulu, Sun was inspired by Christianity and also the modern world. Under the situation, he convinced the Chinese workers to stop worshiping the “Holy Emperor Lord Guan”. With the worried of Sun embracing Christianity, his elder brother soon sent him back home.
Going back home, Sun Yat-sun broke the statue of the Beijidian Temple with his friend Lu Haodong. It raised the anger of the villagers and the two young men escaped to Hong Kong.
孫中山於1866年生於中國廣州翠亨村,生活窮苦,長大後得兄長幫助曾到檀香山讀書,在檀香山受到基督教及現代社會影響,竟勸說當地工人不要膜拜關帝神像,他的家人怕他生事,匆匆把他送回家鄉。誰知回到家鄉,孫中山更是「離經判道」,與友人陸皓東一起破壞了村內的北帝廟神像,貫徹基督教不可拜偶像的教導,最終不為鄉民所容,遠赴他鄉。

They arrived HK in 1883 and studied in the Diocesan School and Orphanage. It is the first step of Sun in HK. The school is now a famous school in HK. In the past, The British HK didn’t have enough budget to support education in HK. It advised Church to do it instead. The Diocesan School and Orphanage was one of them. In 1860, the Diocesan native Female Training School, predecessor of the Diocesan School and Orphanage was built affiliated with the Diocesan of Victoria. It was a female school promoting education of women of HK. But later it was found that many graduates of the school, who knew English, became the ladies of the Western men. After a series of incident, the school was changed to “Diocesan School and Orphanage”, which was a male only school.
孫中山與陸皓東於1883年來到香港,正式就讀拔萃書室,成為了他在香港第一次足迹所在。這拔萃書室也大有來頭,是香港現今最著名的中學之一。當年,港英政府由於經費所限,沒有餘錢投資教育,故鼓勵教會在港辦學,拔萃書室就是其中之一,它前身其實是一家女校,由聖公會建立,希望為香港婦女提供教學,但後來發現,在書院畢業,學懂英文的女性,很多都成為了涉外婦人,老實說就是洋人的情婦了,引來很多批評,在一連串的事件下,該校正式在1878年轉型為男校,就是拔萃書室了。

After years of development, the school is now called the Diocesan Boy’s School. It now consists of a campus in Kowloon, with 50000 square meter, which the 3rd largest secondary school in HK. Don’t look down on the number. It is a very big number in HK. The school is also one of the best secondary school in HK with great achievement in academy, sports and music. Today, a number of influencing people in the Politics, Law, Commerce, Arts and entertainment field of HK come from Diocesan Boy’s School.
經多年發展,拔萃書室已改名為拔萃男書院,在九龍建立了50000平方米的校舍,是香港第三大的中學。不要少看這50000平方米,在香港吋金吋土的地方,這是很誇張的數字!而拔萃男書院亦成為了香港數一數二的名校,每年香港公開考得到滿分的狀元,總有拔萃男書院的學生。在建校之今,香港的政界、工商界、法律界、學術界以至文娛界的名人中,總有拔萃男書院的影子。
The Diocesan Boy’s School, very big!!! 拔萃男書院,很大!

Since the Diocesan School and Orphanage moved to Kowloon in 1927, the address experienced a number of rebuild and is now the “Bonham Road Government Primary School”. In 1996, to commermorate the 130th birthday of Sun Yat-sen, the HK government set up the Dr Sun Yat-sen Historical Trail and introduce the stories of Sun in HK. The Bonham Road Government Primary School”is one of the spots. But the school now is not opened to public so we cannot visit.
而拔萃書室搬到九龍後,這校址經歷多次改建,現今就成為了般含道官立小學。1996年,為紀念孫中山誕辰130週年,香港政府建立了「孫中山史蹟徑」,介紹了它在香港的足跡,現今的般含道官立小學正是其中之一,不過這學校至今不對外開於,所以我們無法入內參觀了。

Sun Yat-sen moved to The Government Central School after less than a year of studied in the Diocesan School and Orphanage. Next time, we will talk about the Government Central School.
孫中山在拔萃書室不足一年,就轉學到中央書院,下一次,讓我們看看中央書院有何來龍去脈。
