The campus includes a spacious hall for assemblies, multiple computer rooms, a library, basketball courts, badminton courts, and a large playing field for classes and activities.
The school was founded in 1961 and is one of the oldest secondary schools in the area, starting with a small number of students in simple classrooms. It expanded in the early 2000s and has since become known for strong student performance in exams.
The school carries the motto 'Integritas', emphasizing honesty and integrity as core values for students and teachers. The four houses, named Pine, Plum, Camphor, and Bamboo, form a long tradition where students take pride in their team affiliation and cheer loudly during competitions.
The school is located in an accessible part of Tsuen Wan and offers over 30 different clubs including sports teams, music groups, and academic societies for students. Visitors can attend open days or special events held at certain times of the year.
Two students who lost their parents during the Manila hostage crisis returned to the school afterward, and their stories became part of the school's history. The community showed great support and resilience for the affected students during that difficult time.
