COLLEGE
Diamond Jubilee Is Celebrated
OLD BOYS GATHER
Coincident with the feast day of St. John Baptist de la Salic, founder of the Order of the Brothers of the Christian Schools, St. Joseph's Collège celebrated its diamond jubilee during the week-end.
Following a concert at the College on Saturday afternoon. there was a reunion of former pupils in the evening and high mass in the Cathedral yesterday.
A comprehensive souvenir ma- gazine reviews the 60 years of the College's history' since the small
band of six French brothers arrived 7. in Hong Kong on November
1875, and took over St. Saviour's College in Staunton Street where 11 had been in existence for 11 years..
Placing the new college" under the protection of St. Joseph, the brothers started with 75 boys in Pottinger Street bus & rapidly growing enrolment caused moval the next year, to more spacious. premises in Caine Road.
In 1881 a new college was built. in Robinson Road but following the big earthquake of 1918 the building was so damaged that an immediate move was made to the old German Club in Kennedy Road which had been vacant since the beginning of the war. This is the site of the present college.
