About the CPD
Established in 1903 and relocated in 1928 from Pokfulam to Stanley, St. Stephen’s College has played a key role in the development of education and the history of the Japanese Occupation in Hong Kong. Historic buildings from different periods with diverse architectural styles spread across the campus. The College as a highly regarded school has nurtured countless outstanding students for society.
With a number of historical and cultural assets, the St. Stephen’s College Heritage Trail was established in December 2008 to showcase the rich legacy of the College to both students and the public. Heritage Society was formed to train students as docents of the Trail. It helps enhance the students’ connection with the historical campus. The Trail consists of 9 points that links both historic buildings and memorial sites. In 2011, the School House of St. Stephen’s College was declared as a monument. In 2010, 7 buildings in the campus were accorded Grade 2 status and 4 buildings were accorded Grade 3 status. Bungalow No. 1 of the College was revitalised as the Heritage Gallery which exhibits the artefacts that witness the history of the College.
聖士提反書院成立於1903年，於1928年從薄扶林遷至赤柱，在香港的教育發展和日本佔領歷史中扮演重要角色。校園內散佈著建於不同時期而風格多樣的歷史建築。作為一所備受推崇的學校，書院為社會培養了無數優秀的人才。
2011年，聖士提反書院的書院大樓獲列為法定古蹟。2010年，校園內的7座獲評為二級歷史建築，4座獲評為三級歷史建築。書院的一號平房獲活化為文物館，展示見證書院歷史的文物。聖士提反書院擁有豐富的歷史和文化資源，學校於2008年12月成立文物徑，旨在向學生和公眾展示書院豐富的遺產。學校亦成立了文物學會培訓學生成為文物徑的導賞員，增強學生與歷史校園的聯繫。文物徑包括9個地點，連接歷史建築和紀念地點。
