On 29 October 2026, APSS and APSS Graduates Association (APSSGA) were delighted to welcome more than 60 alumni and former teaching staff members from the Institute for Social Work Training (ISWT), the Department’s earliest social work cohorts, back to the PolyU campus for a joyous homecoming gathering.
The reunion carried special meaning as it celebrated the 50th Anniversary of ISWT, honouring five remarkable decades of pioneering contributions to social work education and community service in Hong Kong.
Our pioneer alumni reconnected warmly with old friends, embarked on a guided campus tour to witness PolyU’s inspiring transformation, and shared fond memories of the formative years that helped shape social work education in Hong Kong.
APSS extends its heartfelt gratitude to the PolyU Alumni Affairs Office for its unwavering support in making this reunion such a resounding success and for helping strengthen our vibrant and enduring alumni community.
