About 郭慎墀 Sydney James"Jimmy" Lowcock

Jimmy was the 7th headmaster of the Diocesan Boys’ School, Hong Kong (tenure 1961-1983). He was a remote cousin of his predecessor George Zimmern. George was a good friend of Jimmy’s father Henry, and was the best man in the wedding of Henry and Mabel in 1926.

Jimmy never married. He continued the philanthropy of George Zimmern in DBS and spent almost all his income for the boys, including paying for school fees, athletic equipments and so on. As the result he found himself with almost no savings upon retirement. The old boys raised a fund and purchased for Jimmy a flat in Clear Water Bay, thus provided him a nice environment to spend the rest of his life.
