Hong Kong Cheung Shi Clansmen's Association Cheung Chi Cheong Memorial Primary School (
Chinese: 香港張氏宗親總會張熾昌紀念小學), known as
Cheung Chi Cheong Memorial Primary School (張熾昌紀念小學) in short, is a
primary school in
Cheung Ching Estate on the
Tsing Yi Island,
Hong Kong. The school was formerly known as
Wellwisher Foundation Primary School (衞理信小學).
History
The school was founded in
1978 by the
Wellwisher Foundation. It was originally divided into morning and afternoon school. Between
1992 and
1994, the school was in transition to a whole day school. In
1995, the school was taken over by the
Hong Kong Cheung Shi Clansmen's Association. On
September 1,
1997 the school was renamed to the present name, in memory of a founding member of the school,
Cheung Chi Cheong, who died in May
1996. In
2003, all members of the school, including pupils, teachers, principal and directors, joined
the Scout Association of Hong Kong and made
scouting activities part of their daily curriculum. It was the first school of its kind in Hong Kong.
Future
With ever decreasing birth rate in Hong Kong, the primary school was destinated to close after summer
2006. All the pupils were transferred to the
TWGHs Chow Yin Sum Primary School.
