St. Clare's Girls' School (; abbr.: SCGS) is a Catholic English girls' school located on Mount Davis Road, Central and Western District, Hong Kong. It was founded in 1927 by the Missionary Sisters of Our Lady of the Angels from Lennoxville, Québec, Canada. Vision and mission Core values As a Catholic school, determine to carry on the contribution of the Catholic Church to education by upholding and passing on the core values of Truth, Justice, Love, Life and Family to our students to prepare them for their life and future responsibilities. In 2012, the Chronicle included the school in an article discussing the teaching of liberal arts in Chinese schools. but in 2015, the school cut Chinese history from the curriculum because so few students were interested in the class. History Founding (1927) The school was founded in 1927. On December 3, 1926, sisters of Our Lady of the Angels from Canada came to Hong Kong to set up the school. Mother Mary Gabriel, the school's co-founder, arrived in Hong Kong with three other sisters in 1926. They rented a flat in Nathan Road, one of the poorest parts of the community at that time and evaluated the possibility of the project. On 7 February 1927, an English institute was set up with seven students. The institute was named after St. Clare as suggested by Father Shak, and the school motto Veritas Vincit, which means Truth Conquers was adopted. It indicates that Christ is the foundation of the school as He is the way, the truth and the life. At the end of February 1927, the sisters moved to 5 Peace Avenue in Ho Man Tin (spelt Ho Mun Tin or Homuntin in sources from the 1920s–30s). With the increasing number of students, the house at Peace Avenue was too small both for the students and sisters’ quarters. At the end of October 1927, they moved to Move to Prospect Place (1936) Having taken the advice of Bishop Enrico Valtorta, the sisters started to establish themselves in the Chinese district. Eventually, Kennedy Town was chosen to be the new site of the school. The new school was opened in Sands Street in 1930. In 1936, the school moved to Prospect Place, Bonham Road. In 1945–1946, the school was reorganised under a new educational system, with two sessions, the morning session for secondary and the afternoon session for primary. Mt. Davis
