History
The first foundation
In 1860, Lady L. Smith, the wife of the first Bishop of Victoria and the Society for the Promotion of Female Education in the Far East (FES) established a girls' school affiliated with the Diocese of the Anglican denomination in Hong Kong. It was given the name Diocesan Native Female Training School (DNFTS, 曰字樓女館), and Lady Robinson, the wife of the Governor, became the patroness. According to the constitution, it aimed "to introduce among a somewhat superior class of native females the blessings of Christianity and of religious training". The Committee started the school on Bonham Road, with a small concrete house on a paddy field. It accommodated teaching, boarding and all the activities.
