Message from the Principal
Following the joyous and memorable celebrations of the 150th Anniversary of St. Joseph’s College, we look forward with renewed vigour and purpose to the next chapter.
For 150 years, St. Joseph’s College has remained dedicated to providing a transformative, holistic education. We believe that true learning encompasses not only intellectual growth, but also the cultivation of moral character, emotional maturity, aesthetic appreciation, and physical well-being. This enduring philosophy has nurtured generations of young men who have gone on to make meaningful and lasting contributions across every sector of Hong Kong and the international community.
For 150 years, Josephians have been demonstrating boundless potential and versatile talents. In the HKDSE examinations, our students achieved outstanding results with flying colours, securing pathways to prestigious universities locally and worldwide. Alongside these academic triumphs, Josephians have excelled in inter-school sports championships, music festivals, debating tournaments, STEM disciplines, and community outreach initiatives. In every endeavour, our boys demonstrate an inspiring capacity to lead, collaborate, and persevere.
As both an alumnus and Principal, I am immensely privileged to serve my Alma Mater within this enduring tradition. Together with our devoted teachers and administrative staff, we remain steadfast in providing a supportive, intellectually stimulating environment where every boy is encouraged to discover his unique gifts and realise his full potential during his formative secondary school years. We aspire to cultivate future-ready leaders who combine academic brilliance with social consciousness.
The foundation laid over the past 150 years is solid and enduring. United by the school motto “Labore et Virtute”, let us move forward hand in hand. Josephians, are you ready?
