Pui Ching Middle School (Hong Kong)

Pui Ching Middle School is a Baptist secondary school in Ho Man Tin, Kowloon, Hong Kong. Founded in 1889, it currently has sister schools in Macau and Guangzhou.

History
The Hong Kong branch was established in 1933 in Ho Man Tin. Initially, only primary school education was offered; a junior high school division using Chinese as medium of instruction was established in 1938, a senior high division was established in 1940. The school was suspended during Japanese occupation of Hong Kong during World War II. Students and staff went to Macau and mainland China. In 1945, the school moved back to a temporary site in Kowloon Tong and in 1946, the school moved back to Ho Man Tin. In 1950, the school was renamed from a Hong Kong branch of the Canton school to the present name. In 1952, a new extension on the land donated by Hong Kong Government was built and completed in September 1953. The premises are located at 20 Pui Ching Road which was named after the school. == Motto and Colours ==
Motto and Colours
The school motto, "Utmost Goodness and Righteousness" (至善至正), was adopted in 1916. It is derived from passages in the Old Testament: ("you will be doing what is good and right in the eyes of the Lord your God.";「行耶和華你神眼中看為善為正的事」) and ("Good and upright is the Lord; therefore he instructs sinners in his ways";「耶和華是良善正直的」). The school colours, red and blue, were introduced in 1917 when the school flag was first designed. According to the school, red symbolises passion and enthusiasm, while blue represents calmness and thoughtful planning. == Today ==
