St. Margaret's Girls' College, Hong Kong, Former secondary school in Hong Kong
St. Margaret's Girls' College is a secondary school for girls located on Mei Tin Road in Sha Tin, teaching primarily in English. The campus features well-maintained buildings with bright classrooms displaying student work and motivational quotes, along with common areas where students gather during breaks and free time.
Founded in 1965, the school began as a small educational facility for girls with a Catholic mission. In 2000 it became the first girls' school in Hong Kong to receive government support while teaching primarily in English. The institution relocated to its current Tai Wai campus in 2014 and suspended admissions for new first-year students.
The school's name reflects its Catholic foundation and connection to a religious figure. Daily school life shows this cultural foundation through student uniforms, orderly classrooms decorated with student work, and the respectful way teachers and students interact with one another.
The school is easily accessible by public transportation and located near Mei Lam Estate. The campus is not large but well-organized with common areas available during breaks, making it simple to navigate and explore.
The school teaches primarily in English, which sets it apart from many other institutions in Hong Kong that use Chinese as the main language of instruction. This distinctive approach has made it an appealing choice for families seeking an English-medium education.
