Methodist College, secondary school in Hong Kong
Methodist College is a secondary school in the Yau Tsim Mong District of Hong Kong that uses English as the main teaching language for most subjects. The campus includes classrooms, science laboratories, a library, sports facilities, and a hall for school events and gatherings.
The school opened in November 1958 with the goal of creating a close community between teachers and students. In the following decades, it expanded with the North Wing in the early 1960s and later added modern amenities including air conditioning, the East Wing, and additional sports facilities to meet growing student needs.
Methodist College, known locally as 循道中學, reflects its Methodist founding through emphasis on moral education alongside academics. The school regularly organizes activities that help students learn about responsibility, respect, and teamwork, connecting these values to their daily school life.
The school is located near King's Park in Kowloon with easy access via public transport, as shops and restaurants are nearby in the busy neighborhood. Visitors should note that campus access may be restricted during school hours, so it is best to inquire in advance about visiting.
The school divides its students into five houses named after Chinese elements such as Fire and Water, and these houses compete against each other in sports events and school activities. This house system fosters school spirit and creates stronger bonds within the student community.
