Jardine's Lookout
In 1964, on the premises of the Béthanie sanatorium in Pok Fu Lam, the first "small French-speaking school" was founded. At first, it could only accommodate 35 students. Over the years, the school has moved its location several times: from the "Alliance française" in Wan Chai to the Catholic centre, and then, in 1975, to the former military hospital on Borrett Road. In 1984 the "Lycée Victor Ségalen" was founded, with a new constitution and in new buildings at Jardine's Lookout. Once again, the school quickly reached its maximum capacity, and it became necessary to find additional premises in Kowloon to admit new students. In 1999, a new campus was opened on Blue Pool Road. Today, the "Lycée Ségalen" is the largest French International School in Asia, with more than 1700 students and 200 employees.
