We had a dream.

Our school was the dream of a group of dedicated church members of the Holy Trinity Church. They dreamt of founding not any school, but a good Christian school to glorify God. It took them 12 years and required a lot of patience along with plenty of negotiations with the government to establish what we see as S.K.H. Holy Trinity Church Secondary School today.

In 1968, the school founding committee was formed with a budget of 2.5 million intending to build a school at To Kwa Wan. However, with the changes in Government policies, the building plan was delayed for four times, and the budget expanded to 8 million.
