History
The school opened in 1911. Its first school building was built by the Public Works Department in 1915 at No.7 Gough Hill Path. The building now houses the Victoria Peak Fire Station (山頂消防局). Construction of the current premises on Plunkett's Road was completed in 1954. The two campuses were initially operated in tandem, with younger children attending the older school. A few years later, the entire student body was consolidated in the new buildings.
