親愛的會員和朋友們，
在此，我謹代表南安普敦華人協會向所有參加和協助我們2024年兩場精彩聖誕活動的朋友們致以誠摯的感謝！
首先，我們於12月21日舉行的「聖誕咖啡晨聚」活動，不僅是一場充滿溫馨和歡樂的聚會，更是一個展示才藝的舞台。我們欣賞了精彩的音樂、美麗的歌聲、優美的舞蹈以及太極表演，這些都離不開每一位表演者的努力與付出。你們的才華和熱情為這個早晨注入了生機與活力。
其次，12月22日的「聖誕晚會」亦是一個值得銘記的夜晚。豐盛的晚餐讓大家享受美味佳餚，而歌唱比賽則為活動增添了無窮的樂趣。每一位參與者的歌聲和熱情感染了在場的每一個人，讓這個夜晚充滿了笑聲與感動。
這兩場活動的成功舉辦，離不開所有協助者的無私奉獻和辛勤付出。感謝你們的籌備、組織以及現場協助，讓每一位參與者都能感受到節日的溫暖和社區的凝聚力。
再次感謝每一位的參與與支持，因為有你們，這個聖誕節變得更加美好！我們期待在未來的活動中，能再次與大家歡聚一堂，攜手創造更多美好的回憶。
祝大家聖誕快樂，新年愉快！
此致
敬禮

Dear Members and Friends,
On behalf of the Chinese Association of Southampton, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who participated in and contributed to the success of our two wonderful Christmas events in 2024!
First, the Christmas Coffee Morning held on December 21st was not only a warm and joyful gathering but also a vibrant stage for showcasing talents. We were treated to brilliant music, beautiful singing, elegant dance performances, and Tai Chi demonstrations. These amazing moments were made possible by the hard work and dedication of every performer. Your talent and enthusiasm brought life and energy to the morning.
Second, the Christmas Party on December 22nd was another unforgettable evening. The delicious dinner delighted everyone’s taste buds, and the singing contest added endless fun and excitement. The passion and voices of every participant touched everyone in attendance, filling the night with laughter and heartfelt moments.
The success of these two events would not have been possible without the selfless dedication and hard work of all the helpers. Thank you for your preparation, organization, and on-site support, which allowed every attendee to feel the warmth of the season and the strong sense of community.
Once again, thank you all for your participation and support. With your contributions, this Christmas became even more special! We look forward to gathering with you again at future events and creating more wonderful memories together.
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Yours sincerely,
Prof Michael Ng
