Kwun Tong Maryknoll College

Kwun Tong Maryknoll College (KTMC;Chinese: 觀塘瑪利諾書院) is a Catholic boys' secondary school in Hong Kong. It was founded in 1971. It was established by the Maryknoll Fathers, a society of Catholic priest and brothers which was founded in the United States in 1911. The college's anniversary day is the first Friday in May. Kwun Tong Maryknoll College is one of the limited number of schools in Hong Kong which uses English as the medium of instruction. The school curriculum uses English as medium of instruction in all subjects with the exception of Chinese-related subjects. In the late 1950s, the Maryknoll Fathers had began working in the Kwun Tong area. In 1962, the Maryknoll Father Society asked (Catholic Foreign Mission Society of America) the Education Department for assistance in building a subsidized Anglo-Chinese secondary school, Kwun Tong Maryknoll College, in Kwun Tong. The planning of the school was delayed by the unrest of the late 1960s and the serious inflation which upset all cost estimates. But eventually ground was broken in the summer of 1971 and the construction of the school building began. The school was founded finally in 1971.

  • Maria Ly is quite literally a Rock Star. You’ll often find her hanging off a 5.13a grade rock climbing route, she is the rock star co-founder of Skimble (which is incubated by Rock Health), and you can find her rock formation photography featured in Outside Magazine.

  • March 13, 1988 was the day we moved to America. Although it wasn't my first time in the country, that date was the beginning of my journey through the American school system. Those eleven years filled me with a lifetime of great memories.

  • Mayank is an inventor and zebra-enthusiast. He developed Stripespotter, a biological barcode scanner for zebras, and is a part of the team behind Facebook insights. By way of India to Oman to the US, Mayank can be found behind the wheel of a red Porsche dreaming up his next big idea.
