SPCS is located in a densely populated area of Causeway Bay. (Click here to view the location map.) Together with the private primary and pre-school section and St. Paul's Hospital which adjoins a chapel and a sesquicentennial garden, the entire compound takes up an area of 7000 square metres.
The Secondary, Primary and Pre-school Sections have their own separate buildings. There are two school halls, one each for the Secondary and the Primary. The Secondary School hall consists of a balcony as well and can accommodate over a thousand students. Apart from the school hall which is also used for indoor sports, there are also an indoor heated swimming pool, a covered playground, one netball/basketball court and a garden for recreation. The teaching block includes thirty-four classrooms, six science laboratories, a school library, a multi-media self-access learning centre (MMLC), an information technology learning centre (ITLC), a quality kitchen and other 'key learning areas' special rooms for english, chinese, mathematics, humanities and religious studies. Moreover, some recent additions include a dance studio, a video-broadcasting studio and a Media Laboratory on the 6th floor.
Our School Improvement Programme (SIP) was completed in June 2005. It is a seven-storey block which integrates with our existing school campus. It houses a Student Activity Center on the second floor, and a Computer Assisted Learning (CAL) Laboratory, a Preparation Room and a Language Laboratory on the third floor. The fourth floor consists of an art room and its display area, while the fifth floor comprises a music room and its storeroom. The sixth floor features the Staff Room and Staff Common Room with pantry. The roof has been transformed into a Classroom of the Future which boasts an extended skylight feature, along with renewable solar panels. At the lobby entrance, there stands a fountain that operates on renewable solar energy. Eventually, this area will become an environmental gallery in which environmental models and equipment will be displayed and used for educational purposes.
