Cheung Chuk Shan College

Cheung Chuk Shan College is an aided, whole-day co-educational grammar secondary school founded in Hong Kong in 1969 by a group of philanthropists from the 5 Districts Business Welfare Association. The School is named after Cheung Chuk Shan (1882 – 1936), a merchant from Siyi area of Southern Guangdong in the early 20th century. History Class structure There are 27 classes in the School and enrollment remains steady at around 900 students.
