二次世界大戰結束,百廢待興。救恩堂見當時大量失學兒童急需教育,遂於1946年興辦小學,傳揚福音,定名為「救恩學校」,初時僅辦幼稚園及小學。
After the Second World War, Hong Kong was left in a ruined state. As many children were deprived of an education, Kau Yan Church established ‘Kau Yan School’ in 1946 with the vision of preaching the Gospel through education. At that time, the school was only comprised of the primary school and kindergarten sections.
辦英文中學,改名為「救恩書院」,上午小學上課,下午中學上課。因地方不足,需要籌建新校舍。
In 1950, the school was renamed ‘Kau Yan College’ when it started to run a secondary school section with English as the medium of instruction. The school building was used on a shared basis by the primary school in the morning and the secondary school in the afternoon. Due to insufficient space, a new school building was planned.
校舍建築工程全部完成。
為全力發展中小學工作,1958年起幼稚園不再招生,翌年幼稚園結束停辦。中學部亦於該年增設大學預科班課程,成為一間全面而完備的學校。
The construction of the new school building was completed in 1957. To focus on the development of the primary and secondary schools, the kindergarten section was closed down in 1959. In the same year, the secondary school section offered the matriculation course, expanding into a school complete with all levels of secondary education.
