It is with incredible sadness we announce the passing of Christine Phillips, Tuesday, 13 December 2022 after a short but feisty battle with cancer.

Christine is survived by her loving husband of 54 years, Frank. Her son Brian, her daughter Jane, son-in-law Martin, daughter-in-law Hege and her grandchildren Jesper and Annika.

The world is a darker place without her, but her light will continue to shine.

Anyone wishing to pay their respects and say goodbye are invited to attend her memorial service:

Thursday morning 22 December 2022
10:45-11:30

The Jockey Club Home for Hospice Care
No 18. A Kung Kok Shan Road, Shatin, Hong Kong

The family asks that in lieu of flowers, please make a donation to
the Jockey Club Society for Hospice Care or Cancer Research (in any country) in memory of Christine.

After 34 years and thousands of students, it is time to close the doors for the final time.

I tried to think of some stand out memories or students to mention, but once I started, I realised that there were so many happy memories, so many unique and wonderful people that it was an impossible task.

It has been a privilege to have been a part of so many people’s lives. Every student, every lesson brought something new and interesting. While I have been ‘the teacher’ the students of First Steps have taught me so much.

Thank you.
Christine Phillips
