Marymount Secondary School, Catholic secondary school in Happy Valley, Hong Kong.
Marymount Secondary School is a secondary school in Happy Valley featuring modern classrooms, scientific laboratories, and dedicated facilities for performing arts and physical activities. The campus is equipped with spaces designed to support teaching across different academic disciplines.
The school was founded in 1927 by Maryknoll Sisters as Holy Spirit School and began with eight classes housed in four small classrooms. Over the following decades, it grew and transformed into the secondary institution it is today.
Students here engage in musical performances, community service projects, and leadership initiatives while learning through a bilingual system that values both English and Chinese communication. These activities shape how the school community comes together throughout the year.
The school functions as an active learning community with ongoing classes and events throughout the school year, so timing a visit requires awareness of the calendar. Contacting the school beforehand helps visitors understand accessibility and what might be observed during a visit.
In 1991 the school's first principal of ethnic Chinese heritage took leadership, marking a significant transition in the institution's direction. This change reflected how the school evolved from being led by a religious order to becoming rooted in the local community.
