Our School Sponsoring Body, Franciscan Missionary Sisters of Our Lady of Sorrows, was established by Bishop R.A. Palazzi at Hengyang, Hunan in 1939. In 1958, Bishop Bianchi, Lorenzo PIME invited Sisters to come to Hong Kong and entrusted Blessed Rev Gabirel Allegra to take care of the Sisters in aid of their work in education in Shatin. Upholding the school motto “AMOR ET LABOR”, our Sisters have started the Immaculate Heart of Mary family, including IHMS, IHMK and IHMC and dedicated themselves to the education in Shatin.
