Little known school. Delete per WP:NOT. The only linked source is a directory listing which indicates it is a kindergarten and junior school with 20 enrolled pupils. The footnote reference appears to be but a trivial mention Ohconfucius 04:30, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep The school's original and current mission, history, site and curriculum all establish notability. It is unclear who many people have to know about a school to address the "Little known school" standard. Alansohn 21:12, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

 * KEEP It is one of the most unique small international schools in Hong Kong. It is known in Hong Kong for it's small class sizes and intimate, family-oriented approach to education.  It occupies a heritage building that is almost 100 hundred years old.  It is also in the process of expanding and it's profile has been rising in the Hong Kong community.  More information will be added to this page soon. [John Lok] 11:43, 13 November 2007
 * Strong keep. A unique school which once catered for Norwegian missionairies in Hong Kong. It has a long history, occupies a heritage building, and a book has been written on the school's history. Notability is already clearly established even though the existing article is still very short. Dahliarose 10:24, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

 * Strong Keep Cannot believe this nomination. A country with a population less than London and a language largely unspoken outside that country establishes a school on the other side of the world based on their culture and that isn't notable? This isnt low importance its High! Pity the article is poor, I bet Norwegian schoolchildren would enjoy seeing photos of an asian norwegian school. We are about Education. Thats what all this is for! Jimbo Wales is talking about the exchange of cultures and values. This is what is happening right here in this very article. I hope it isnt me who has misunderstood what is going on Victuallers 16:24, 13 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - totally baffling that this nomination has any support. Probably the most unique educational arrangement in the world. Clearly notable. TerriersFan 18:07, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep Notable and strikingly unique; Wikipedia is enhanced by having an article on it. Noroton 23:40, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
