Introduction
Our college was founded in 1956 (Buddhist Calendar year 2500), thankfully
indebted to devotee Madam Wong Fung Ling who donated part of the construction
cost, and Sir Man Kam Lo who rendered enthusiastic support to result in
government land grant, subvention and approval for the establishment of a
subsidized school. The school project took a total of three years to complete,
thanks to the concerted effort of devotees Mr. Chan Ching To, Mr. Wong Wan Tin,
Mr. Fung King Hsia and Mr. Lam Lim Chun. The college was officially opened in
September, 1959.
