Pui Kiu Middle School, secondary school in Hong Kong
Pui Kiu Middle School is a secondary school located on Tin Hau Temple Road in North Point. The building has multiple floors with organized classrooms, a small library, and spaces for activities like basketball and table tennis.
The school was founded in 1946 to provide education for children of overseas Chinese families. In the 1950s, new regulations made operations difficult, and in 1958 the headmaster was removed following a police raid that seized books deemed supportive of communism.
The school's name reflects its founding purpose of support and nation-building. Today you can see this heritage in daily practices like flag ceremonies, singing the national anthem, and organized visits to mainland China that form part of student life.
Students walk to school or arrive by small buses, and classes start early in the morning. Visitors should know the school is an active learning environment and access may be limited outside of open house events.
Notably, the school flew the Chinese flag and sang the national anthem during British rule, which was once forbidden by law. These practices show how the school openly displayed its support for China from its founding onward.
