gave their life to save their students on 10 Feb 1996
A hill fire broke out on Pat Sin Leng on 10 February 1996, when a group of 49 teachers and students from HKCWC Fung Yiu King Memorial Secondary School were hiking in the mountains. 200 firemen and 4 helicopters were sent to rescue the group. Two teachers, Chow Chi-Tsai (Chinese: 周志齊) and Wong Shuo Mei (Chinese: 王秀媚) and three students died, with 13 others injured.
Spring Breeze Pavilion (Chinese: 春風亭) was built on the mountain in memory of the five who died. It was inaugurated by the then-Governor of Hong Kong, Chris Patten, on 12 March 1996.
